Shingle Glue vs Roof Replacement

At Shingle Magic sealer, we know that when your shingles start to curl, crack, or fall off, it’s time to take action to protect your roof. When your roof starts leaking, it can be a daunting task to figure out whether you need a full roof replacement or if a quick fix of shingle glue will do the trick. 

The first thing you need to do is figure out whether you need a full roof replacement or if shingle glue will do the trick. The best thing to do is call a roofing expert. They can inspect your roof and let you know what the best option is for your home.

Here’s a look at the pros and cons of shingle glue vs roof replacement to help you make the best decision for your home.

Benefits of Shingle Magic Sealer

Shingle glue is a great option if your asphalt shingles are slightly damaged. It’s quick, easy, and inexpensive to apply. Plus, Shingle Magic Roof Sealant can extend your roof’s life by up to 30 years! 

The biggest benefit of using shingle glue is that it’s a relatively cheap and easy fix. If your roof is only leaking in a few spots, shingle glue can be a quick and easy way to stop the leaks without having to replace the entire roof. The downside is that shingle glue won’t fix serious damage. If your shingles are falling off or badly damaged, you may need to replace them.

Shingle glue is also a good option if you’re trying to avoid a full roof replacement for aesthetic reasons. If your roof is in decent condition overall but is starting to show its age, a few strategically placed spots of shingle glue can help it look like new again.

Benefits of Roof Replacement

Roof replacement is more expensive than shingle glue, but it’s the best option for serious damage. A new roof will last 20-30 years, so it’s a good investment for your home. Roof replacement might be a good option if your roof is more than 30 years old and starting to show signs of wear and tear. However, we’ve had clients with 40+-year-old roofs who loved our service. This is a review pulled from our website and google reviews.

So, should you use shingle glue or get a roof replacement? Ultimately, the decision comes down to your budget and the severity of the leaks. If your roof is in good condition overall and you just have a few small leaks, shingle glue may be the way to go. However, if your roof is in bad shape and the leaks are extensive, a roof replacement is probably your best bet.
