Repair Roof or just Wait for a Storm?
I just bought a 2016 house that has a few missing shingles. In several areas, the shingles need to be secured because they can flip up.
The repair quote was over $1,200.
Inspector said the roof should only last 5 more years or so. Not currently leaking anywhere.
I'm thinking that I just leave it as is and wait to replace it. I live in Florida - so there could be a hurricane.
Does that sound like a smart plan? Defer costly repair and wait to just replace? Otherwise, I'll get more quotes.
Thanks, Debby
