The majority of homes in Miami Gardens use asphalt shingles for their roofs. Asphalt has a nice combination of low cost, moderate durability, and has enough colors and patterns to make the roof look nice. However, asphalt roofing of all the roofing materials is the most prone to needing repairs.
An asphalt roof in south Florida may last for between 15-20 years if very well maintained; however, most are not well maintained and last for around 10 years. Fortunately, most asphalt repair work isn't costly. If the situation is one that the roof looks completely shot, then a replacement may be necessary, but in most cases, quality repairs can save years of the roof's life.

The primary role of the flashing is to keep water away from the deck and onto the shingles for proper drainage. Poorly installed flashing can lead to problems that need a repair.
Damaged shingles are one of the main culprits to a leaky roof. Even a few missing damaged shingles can lead to massive water damage in the home.
If more than 48 hours after the rain there is still water standing on the roof theres a chance it can start leaking into the home. This usually occurs through seams and flashing.
It’s common for debris such as leaves and even asphalt granules to build up. Quite often due to poor flashing installation, when this happens it can eventually lead to a leak when the water builds up underneath the tiles.
Much like broken shingles even one missing can lead to a slew of problems. Normally shingles take damage from a violent storm, it is wise to check the roof after any major storm system passes through. If caught early on the repairs can be simple and inexpensive. If the problems are left to fester it may result in the entire roof needing to be replaced.
When repairing an asphalt shingle roof if the damage seems substantial the question always arises as to whether it is wiser to replace the roof. Older asphalt roofs needing many repairs are quite often better off being replaced due to the inevitability. Here ares some signs it is better to replace than repair:
