Many Ellsworth homeowners conduct a formal or informal roofing inspection on an annual basis. Perhaps more than any other material used to build your home, the roof is subject to wear and tear and may be particularly bad if the weather has been extreme or destructive. When conducting an inspection, it is important to keep in mind what part of the country you live in, what sort of weather patterns your area experiences, how often your roof has been maintained or replaced in the past, and what kind of material it is.

If your roof inspection shows damage, the next question may be whether to replace or repair. While replacement is often expensive, older homes may actually save money when repair work is extensive. The biggest factor determining the cost of replacement or repair is roofing material. The most expensive materials are clay tiles and the least expensive are asphalt shingles. However, it is important to keep in mind your location in the country and particular weather patterns when choosing materials. The decision to repair or replace may arise much more often if you choose clay tiles in an area that receives a lot of ice storms.

Some of the obvious signs that a roof needs replacing include: interior wall or ceiling blistering, obvious leakage or water damage, ice buildup in the attic, curling shingles that look dirty or have algae, sagging and rotten soffits, or even something as simple as a rise in energy costs over the winter.
