How long does a roof last in Phoenix?

In our desert climate, shingles last 15–20 years, while tile roofs can last 50+ years but the underlayment usually needs replacement after 20–25 years. Flat foam roofs last decades if you recoat every 5–7 years.

What’s the biggest cause of roof damage in Arizona?

UV exposure from the sun. It dries out shingles, weakens underlayment, and cracks sealants faster than in cooler regions. Monsoon storms with wind and debris are a close second.

Do I need to replace my roof if it’s leaking?

Not always. A single leak might just mean a broken tile, slipped shingle, or flashing problem. But if the roof is older, leaks are often a sign it’s time for a bigger repair or replacement.
