  • How Old Your Roof Is – The type of material that your roof is made out of is going to ultimately determine how long it will last. These estimates are based on proper maintenance and a little luck from mother nature; 3 Tab Shingles: 10-20 years, Architectural Shingles: 30 years, Wood Shake: 20-40 years, Metal Roofing: 40-70 years, Slate Roofing: 125 years.
