Signs of a roof in need of repair include visible damage to the roof’s structure, missing or damaged shingles, water stains on ceilings or walls, mold or mildew growth, or leaks.

While some minor roof repairs can be done by homeowners themselves, such as replacing a few damaged shingles, more complex repairs or replacements should be done by a professional roofing contractor with the necessary experience and equipment.

The time it takes to repair a roof can vary depending on the extent of the damage and the size of the roof. Simple repairs can take only a few hours, while more complex repairs or replacements may take several days or even weeks.
