Understand Your Insurance Coverage
 
Ignorance could be dangerous. Do you know that most homeowners don’t even understand the extent of their insurance coverage? It sounds funny, but it’s reality.

​The roof is arguably the most critical part of a house. When your roof is leaking, it could damage your interior and framing. It could also cause mold and rot on your sheathing, insulation, and drywall.
 
Don’t forget that when your roof looks nice, it gives your house excellent value and a great curb appeal. For this reason, you need to give serious attention to this part of your home.
 
It’s normal for homeowners to ask questions on the current conditions of their roof. This is important if such a homeowner has lived in the house for a while. It’s also necessary to know the age of a roof and its estimated lifespan before buying a new home.

Trust me; the answers to the above questions can be complicated if you aren’t an expert. But, in this article, you will learn the possible lifespan of most roofing systems. You will find this guide useful when you want to replace your roof in the future.
