How long does a roof really last?

Your roof's lifespan is the return on your roof replacement investment. So, it makes sense that you want to get as much as you can out of it. 

Unfortunately, homeowners have a misconception about a roof's lifespan. They think that if their roofing material states it'll last 30 years, it'll reach that 30-year mark.

But the truth is, roofs very rarely reach their maximum lifespan or beyond it. This means you'll have to replace your roof sooner than you expected.
