4. Granule Loss Asphalt shingles are covered in granules that protect them from ultraviolet rays. If you notice granules in your gutters or around your downspouts, it could indicate that your shingles are nearing the end of their lifespan.

5. Finishing and Surface Treatment Tiles that come with additional finishing, such as glazing or special textures, may also come at a higher price point. These treatments can enhance durability and aesthetic appeal but add to the overall cost.

1. Material Quality Not all roofing materials are created equal. High-quality asphalt shingles may last close to their 30-year promise, while lower-grade options may degrade significantly sooner. Other materials, such as metal, tile, or slate, often have longer lifespans but also come with different price points.

The sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays can be exceedingly damaging, causing shingles to dry out and become brittle. Granules absorb a significant amount of these rays, thereby extending the life of the shingles. In fact, high-quality shingles with dense granule coverage can last up to 30 years or more when properly installed and maintained. This longevity not only protects your home but also ensures that you won’t have to invest in roofing repairs or replacements frequently.
