How Long Does An Asphalt Roof Last?
Asphalt shingles are an attractive option for many homeowners. Not only do they offer a high level of protection and great curb appeal, they’re also very budget-friendly. In fact, asphalt roofs are installed on more than 80% of new homes.
You can expect your asphalt shingle roof to last between 15-30 years before it will need to be replaced.
What Affects The Lifespan Of An Oviedo Asphalt Roof?
The Weather
High winds, hail storms, heavy rain, and hurricanes can all shorten the expected lifespan of your roof. If you believe that your roof has sustained storm damage, it’s best to schedule a roof inspection from an experienced roofing contractor to determine the condition of your Oviedo asphalt roof.
Care And Maintenance
Roof maintenance is important, especially in Florida. The high levels of heat and humidity that are so common here can cause individual roof shingles to fail. Having your roof regularly inspected and repaired can help to quickly identify and address any problems before they lead to total roof failure.
The Contractor You Use
Two of the things that can have the greatest impact on your roof’s lifespan are the materials used and the workmanship performed during the installation. This is why it’s so important to work with a roofing company that uses only the highest-quality roofing materials and is able to advise you on all of your options.
You will also need to make sure that the roofer who installs your roof is licensed in the state of Florida. This is proof that your contractor has years of experience and passed the state examinations needed to hold a roofing license.

“Great company! Advantage Roofing was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The installers arrived on time each morning, remained professional and communicated with us throughout the whole process. Advantage Roofing connected us with their trusted/honest adjuster who worked with our insurance company to ensure our storm damage was covered!
