Roof problems do not respect neighbourhood lines either, which is why the quiz asks about the roof rather than the address first.

What actually takes roofs out here is 1970s and 1980s roofs that are now well past the warranty they were sold on. A twenty-five-year shingle put on in 1982 is not a maintenance question any more. The older tracts here are past the point where patching is the cheaper answer.

Most asked for around here: tile and slate roofing

The most common tile job is not a replacement at all. It is a lift-and-relay: the same tile comes off, new underlayment goes down, the tile goes back.

Questions

How long does a re-roof take?

Two days is typical for asphalt. Add days for steep pitch, multiple layers to strip, tile work, or a roof with a lot of valleys and penetrations.

Why does ventilation keep coming up?

Because a badly ventilated attic cooks the roof from underneath and takes years off it. Intake at the eaves and exhaust at the ridge, in balance. It is cheap during a re-roof and awkward afterwards.

My neighbours are all replacing their roofs. Should I?

It is a genuine signal rather than a coincidence. Streets built together wear out together. That does not mean yours is finished, but it is a good reason to have somebody look.
