5 Signs It’s Time to Preserve Your Asphalt Shingle Roof Instead of Replacing It
Learn how to spot the warning signs that your asphalt shingle roof needs attention and discover how Roof Savers® can extend its life by 17 years with a single preservation service. Your roof is one of your home’s most critical defenses, but knowing when to act can be tricky. While many homeowners assume replacement is the only solution, Roof Savers®offers a cost-effective alternative that preserves your roof’s strength, beauty, and value for years to come.
1. A Roof Nearing Its Service Life
If your asphalt shingle roof is 7 years or older, it’s probably already suffering from oil depletion and brittleness. Instead of facing the high cost and disruption of a full replacement, our Renueit17® preservation treatment can add up to 17 years of life to your roof—at a fraction of the cost. This eco-friendly solution revitalizes your shingles, restoring their flexibility and weather resistance while saving you thousands of dollars.
2. Visible Algae Stains
Those ugly black streaks on your roof? That’s algae, and it’s more than just a cosmetic issue—it actually weakens your shingles over time. Roof Savers® starts with a gentle soft wash to safely remove algae and other contaminants before applying Renueit17®. This not only enhances your home’s curb appeal but also preserves your roof’s integrity and prevents future growth.
3. Wind-Damaged or Loose Shingles
Over time, shingles lose their adhesive properties, making them vulnerable to lifting or blowing off during storms. Our comprehensive roof tune-up includes resealing and securing any loose or damaged shingles, ensuring your roof remains watertight and protected. This proactive approach prevents minor issues from turning into major leaks or costly repairs.
4. Cracked or Brittle Shingles
Brittle shingles are prone to cracking, which allows water intrusion and leads to further damage. If you notice cracked, curled, or brittle shingles, it’s a clear sign that your roof needs preservation, not replacement. Our Renueit17® treatment restores the pliability of your shingles, helping them withstand harsh weather and extend their lifespan.
5. Granule Loss
Granules are the protective layer that shields your shingles from UV rays and weathering. If you’re finding granules in your gutters or downspouts, your roof is showing signs of aging. Roof Savers® preservation treatment replenishes lost oils and helps prevent further granule loss, keeping your roof strong and resilient.
