The Most Common Roofing Questions We Get (Answered by the Experts)

At JM Roofing Solutions, we get asked a lot of roofing questions. Here are the top ones, answered by our experts.

Do I need a roof repair or replacement?

If damage is limited to a few shingles, repairs may be enough. If the roof is near the end of its lifespan, replacement is usually better.

How long does a roof last?

  • Asphalt shingles: 15–25 years

  • Metal roofing: 40–70 years

  • Tile or slate: 50–100+ years

How do I know if my roof has storm damage?

Look for missing shingles, dents, granules in gutters, or water spots inside your home. A professional inspection is the best way to be sure.

Will insurance cover my roof?

Most storm-related damage is covered, but coverage varies. Professional documentation helps with claims.
