Repair or replace your roof? Age alone does not decide whether a roof needs replacing. Ask what is actually failing.
One local problem? A local repair may be sensible when the surrounding roof is serviceable. Ask for evidence of the cause.
Repairs keep coming back? Find out whether one defect is unresolved or failures are widespread. Do not assume every repeat leak needs a new roof.
Compare the complete options. Ask for repair and replacement scopes where both are viable. Include access, exclusions and hidden-work allowances.
