Did you know that your shake roof requires maintenance to keep it functional? Without the proper care, it probably won’t last more than 20 years. How old is yours now? Well if your like most people living around Denver, it was probably replaced right after the 1991 hailstorm. So left unattended, you probably don’t have very much life left in your roof. If your already losing shakes, you are more than likely aware of this fact. Soon it will begin to leak.

 On the flip side of the coin with proper care your roof will last 30+ years! Would that benefit your family in any way? Maybe you could plan for the new roof that you will have to put on in 2018, saving a little bit of money each year towards it. Or even just wait until the kids are out of school. Will you still be living in your home then? 

When you really think about it, it can be a very costly decision to skip roof care. Have you heard what some of your neighbors have paid for their roof replacement? But there is another option. You can stop neglecting it and start extending the life of it.

 So you can stop the deterioration of your roof and begin to get the full useful life of your shake roof!
