Should I repair or replace my Oregon roof?
Repair if your roof is under 15 years old, damage is isolated to a small area, and the decking is sound. Replace if it's over 20 years old, damage covers 25%+ of the surface, you've repaired the same area before, or repair estimates exceed 30% of full replacement cost. In Oregon's local climate, problems compound faster than in milder regions — don't defer the decision long.

Roof lifespan in Oregon depends on material and installation quality. Asphalt shingles typically last 20–30 years, metal roofing 40–70 years, and tile 40–100 years.
