Your roof works tirelessly to protect your home from Portland’s unpredictable weather — rain, wind, and even the occasional snow. But over time, even the most durable roofs begin to show signs of wear. Knowing when to replace your roof can prevent costly damage and keep your home secure.
Some of the most common indicators include persistent leaks, even after multiple repairs, missing or curling shingles, and visible sagging in certain areas. You may also notice dark streaks, mold growth, or soft spots on your roof decking. These issues often signal underlying water damage that can compromise your home’s structure.
Another major factor is age. Most asphalt roofs last about 20 to 25 years, depending on maintenance and weather exposure. If your roof is reaching that age range, it may be time to consider replacement rather than patchwork repairs.
