When your roof is damaged, the big decision is whether to repair it or replace it entirely. Here’s how to know which is right for you.

When to Repair

• Missing or damaged shingles.
  
• Small leaks that are easy to locate.
  
• Damage limited to one section of the roof.
  
  

Repairs are faster and more affordable, but they may not be a long-term fix.

When to Replace

• Roof over 20 years old.
  
• Widespread leaks or structural issues.
  
• Rising energy bills due to poor insulation.
  
  

Replacement costs more upfront but saves money long term by preventing recurring issues.
