8 Key Signs You Need A Full Roof Replacement
There are basically eight reasons why your Illinois or Iowa residence might need a roof replacement.
Aging Roof
If your roof is 15-25 years old (or older), it may be nearing the end of its lifespan, especially if it hasn’t been maintained regularly.
Damaged Shingles
Shingles that are curling at the edges, cracking, or missing altogether indicate deterioration and a weakened roof structure.
Leaks & Water Damage
Water stains on ceilings or walls, mold growth, or moisture in the attic suggest your roof is no longer providing proper protection.
Excessive Granule Loss
If you find a large amount of granules in your gutters or downspouts, it means your shingles are wearing down and losing their ability to shield your home.
Sagging Roof
A sagging or uneven roofline can indicate underlying structural damage or trapped moisture, both of which require immediate attention.
Higher Energy Bills
Poor roof insulation and ventilation can cause heating and cooling costs to rise due to escaping air or inadequate temperature regulation.
Storm, Hail, or Wind Damage
If your home has experienced severe weather, such as hail, heavy winds, or fallen debris, it’s important to inspect your roof for damage that could lead to long-term issues.
Visible Light in the Attic
If you can see daylight coming through the roof boards in your attic, this is a major sign of structural weakness and potential leaks.

We would highly recommend him to everyone who wants a quality and professional company to install or repair their roof.
They have outstanding customer service! The entire process was effortless from start to finish after choosing them to replace our roof. From the initial inspection to an emergency patch job I needed because of rainstorms before the project began, their team was responsive, professional, and easy to work with. They kept me informed throughout the process and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy roofing company.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, we are fully licensed, bonded, and insured in Illinois 104.019255, Iowa C147349, and Wisconsin DC-022300173.
You don’t want a fly-by-night contractor that, in many cases, leaves your roof in worse condition than it was or just takes the down payment and runs. We are happy to provide proof of insurance, licensing, and references.
- What warranties do you and your manufacturers provide?
Elevated Roofing offers an industry-leading workmanship guarantee up to 20-years. Meaning, if there is ever an issue, we will make it right at no cost to you.
CertainTeed, Decra, and EcoStar are industry-leading manufacturers that offer warranties of up to 50 years on roofing materials, which, in some cases, is the lifetime of the roof.
- How do I know my roof needs a full replacement?
There are eight key signs that you need a roof replacement. They are:
- Roof age
- Curling, cracked, or missing shingles
- Frequent leaks and water damage
- Excessive granule loss
- Sagging roof
- Higher energy bills
- Storm, hail, or wind damage
- Visible light in the attic
- How long does a new roof last?
Manufacturer guarantees vary. A properly installed architectural (also known as dimensional or laminate) asphalt shingle roof, the most common type of residential roof in Illinois, has a life expectancy of anywhere from 25 to 30 years.
Here are the life expectancies for some other common types of roof:
- 3-tab/strip asphalt shingles last 15–20 years
- Premium/luxury asphalt shingles last 30–50 years
- Metal roofs last 40-70 years
- Wood (cedar shake shingles) last 20-40 years
- Slate roofs last 75+ years
Note that local weather conditions, particularly extreme weather events and severe storms, can affect how long any roof lasts.
- How long does a roof replacement take?
Typical roof replacement shouldn’t take more than a day or two, including preparation and cleanup. However, some replacements can take a little longer depending on the size and complexity of the roof and the type of materials chosen.
- Does insurance cover roof replacement as a result of storm or hail damage?
It depends. While most home insurance policies cover storm damage, the extent of damage determines whether insurance pays for roof replacement or just repairs. The general rule of thumb is that if storm damage totals more than 30% of your roof, replacement is recommended. If less than 30%, your insurance may only cover the required repairs.
Elevated Roofing is well-versed in storm damage and knows what documentation you’ll need and to avoid common delays with your insurance.
- What is your charge for a roof inspection?
Elevated Roofing conducts a free in-person roof inspection to determine whether a replacement or repairs is the best course of action. Please Note: We do not offer free inspections for prospective buyers or sellers.
- What roofing materials do you use?
New roofing materials are selected for their durability and energy efficiency. We only use roofing products from CertainTeed. You can be assured that you’re getting the best products and residential materials available. They offer the broadest range of color and style choices, which makes it easy to find something that suits your roofing project. More importantly, you can rest assured knowing you receive quality materials with a best-in-class warranty program that promises excellent satisfaction.
- How can I be sure I’m choosing the right contractor?
Here’s how to make the best choice:
- Get multiple quotes – Aim for at least three estimates from reputable contractors. If a quote is significantly lower, they may be cutting corners. If it’s too high, they could be overcharging.
- Check reputation & reviews – Look for customer testimonials, online reviews, and local references to ensure the company has a solid track record.
- Verify licensing & insurance – A trustworthy contractor should be licensed, insured, and able to provide proof upon request.
- Look for professionalism – A legitimate contractor typically has branded trucks, uniforms, and a well-organized process for handling your project.
- Assess communication & trust – Go with a company that answers your questions clearly, explains your options, and makes you feel comfortable and confident in your decision.
A great roofing contractor should offer quality work, transparency, and reliability—not just the lowest price. Do your research and choose wisely!
