Most residential roofs last between 20 to 30 years, but several factors can shorten that lifespan—such as storm damage, poor ventilation, or low-quality materials. Some warning signs that your roof may need replacement include:

• Missing or damaged shingles after storms

• Curled or cracked shingles caused by age or heat

• Water leaks or stains on your ceilings and walls

• Excessive granules collecting in gutters

• Sagging areas that indicate structural weakness

If you notice any of these issues, it’s a good idea to have your roof inspected by a professional. At Happy Dad Roofing, we’ll provide a free inspection and let you know if a repair will suffice or if a full replacement is the smarter long-term investment.

The average residential roof replacement takes 1–3 days to complete. However, several factors can affect the timeline:

• Roof size & complexity: Larger homes or steep-pitched roofs require more labor.

• Type of material: Asphalt shingles are quicker to install than metal, tile, or flat roofing systems.

• Weather conditions: Rain or storms may delay progress to ensure safety and quality.

Our team will provide a clear timeline before we begin so you’ll know exactly what to expect. For most homes, we aim to minimize disruption so you can get back to normal life quickly.

It can be tricky to tell whether your roof needs minor repairs or a full replacement. Here’s how to know:

• Repairs may be enough if: The damage is limited to a small area (a few missing shingles, minor leaks, or flashing issues).

• Replacement may be necessary if: The roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, there are leaks in multiple areas, the shingles are deteriorating across the surface, or you’ve had frequent repairs in recent years.

Our specialists will perform a thorough inspection and give you an honest recommendation—no pressure, just facts—so you can make the best decision for your home.

Roof replacement costs can vary widely based on several factors:

• Roof size & design complexity

• Type of material used (asphalt shingles, metal, flat roofing systems, etc.)

• Labor & installation requirements

• Condition of the existing roof decking or structure

• Local permitting and disposal costs

On average, homeowners can expect a range between $5,000 and $15,000+, but we always provide custom estimates based on your exact needs. With Happy Dad Roofing, you’ll receive transparent pricing, detailed breakdowns, and recommendations that fit your budget.
