- How long should a roof last on a Henniker home?
- In NH terms: 15–20 years for 3-tab shingles, 25–30 for dimensional, 40–70 for metal — with attic ventilation as the swing factor. Henniker’s older village homes often run warm attics that melt snow unevenly and feed ice dams, shortening those numbers; newer outskirts homes with modern ventilation hit the full range. We check the attic on every inspection because the shingle age tells half the story and the ventilation tells the rest.
- Repair or replace — how do you call it on Henniker’s mixed housing stock?
- By where the damage lives. Localized problems — wind-lifted shingles, a leak at a chimney or pipe boot, one bad valley — get repaired, and we’ll say so. Roofs failing across the board get the honest recommendation to replace, because repairs on a dying roof are money toward a replacement you’ll need within a year or two anyway. The inspection and written estimate are free, and the recommendation is the same one we’d make on our own house.
