When Do Cicero Homes Need Roof Installation?
Roof installation — or full roof replacement — is the right choice when repair costs approach 40% of replacement cost, when the roof is past its expected lifespan, or when hail or storm damage is extensive enough that insurance approves full replacement. Cicero's bungalows and two-flats typically have two separate roofing systems: a pitched asphalt shingle roof on the main structure, and a flat membrane roof on rear extensions, sun porches, and garages.
Signs your Cicero home needs a new roof:
- Roof is 20+ years old with widespread granule loss or curling shingles
- Multiple leaks in different areas of the roof at the same time
- Insurance company has approved a hail or storm damage claim for full replacement
- Flat rear roof is blistering, ponding water, or showing membrane failure
- Daylight visible through attic or widespread soft spots in decking
