Is It Time for a New Roof? Here’s What You Need to Know

Your roof is the first layer of protection between your home and Florida’s intense weather. From hurricanes and high winds to daily UV exposure, Florida homes take a beating, which is why knowing when it’s time for a new roof is so important. At Robert Jones Roofing, we help homeowners across Brevard County stay ahead of costly repairs by spotting early warning signs.

Below are the key indicators that your roof may need repair or replacement — and what to do next.

1. Curling, Cracking, or Missing Shingles

Shingles that are curling, cracking, or falling off are one of the biggest signs it’s time for a roof inspection. Without proper shingle protection, water can sneak underneath and cause leaks or wood rot.

If you’re unsure, schedule a free roof inspection so our team can check the damage safely.

2. Granules in the Gutters

Finding sand-like grit in your gutters means your shingles are wearing down. This protective layer helps block UV rays and moisture — once it’s gone, your roof becomes vulnerable.

A quick look from the ground often isn’t enough, so contact Robert Jones Roofing for a full professional evaluation.

3. Your Roof Is 15–20 Years Old

Florida roofs don’t last as long as roofs in other states because of heat, salt air, and storm seasons. If your roof is nearing 15–20 years old, it’s smart to start planning ahead.

You can book an inspection with our team any time on our website:

4. Higher Energy Bills

A worn-out roof can affect attic ventilation and insulation, causing your AC to work overtime. If your electric bill suddenly jumps, your roof could be part of the problem.

Let Robert Jones Roofing check your ventilation system during an inspection.

5. Interior Water Stains

If you’re seeing brown ceiling spots, bubbling paint, or musty odors, your roof may already be leaking. Even small leaks can lead to mold growth or costly structural repairs fast.

Don’t wait — leaks never get better on their own. Get fast help from our team: Contact Robert Jones Roofing

6. Sagging or Soft Roof Areas

A sagging roof deck is a serious issue often caused by trapped moisture or wood rot. This requires immediate attention before structural failure occurs.

If you notice any unusual dips, schedule a free roof inspection right away.

7. Your Neighbors Are Replacing Their Roofs

If your neighborhood was built around the same time, everyone’s roofs will age together. When multiple homes on your street start reroofing, it’s usually a sign your home is next.

Our team specializes in reroofs throughout Titusville, Merritt Island, Cocoa, and surrounding areas:
