As a homeowner in the Midwest, you may come across the issue of needing to replace missing or damaged shingles on your roof, but finding that the shingles you need are no longer being manufactured. This can be a frustrating and confusing situation, but it’s important to understand the options available to you. At Allied Emergency Services, we understand the importance of protecting your home and property, which is why we have put together a list of frequently asked questions about discontinued roof shingles in the Midwest.
- Why do roof shingles get discontinued? Roof shingles may be discontinued for a variety of reasons, including changes in building codes, new product developments, or a shift in consumer demand.
- How do I know if my shingles are discontinued? You can check with the manufacturer of your shingles or consult a professional roofing contractor to confirm if your shingles are discontinued.
- What are my options if the shingles on my roof are discontinued? If your shingles are discontinued, you have a few options. You can try to find and purchase remaining stock of the discontinued shingles, but this may be limited and expensive. Another option is to find a similar shingle that matches the color and style of your current shingles as closely as possible. Alternatively, you can consider a full roof replacement with a new shingle type.
- Can I mix different types of shingles on my roof? Mixing different types of shingles on your roof is not recommended, as it can lead to an uneven appearance and potential issues with water infiltration. If you need to replace discontinued shingles, it’s best to try to match the color and style of your current shingles as closely as possible, or consider a full roof replacement.
- Are there any special considerations when working with discontinued shingles? When working with discontinued shingles, it’s important to keep in mind that the manufacturer’s warranty may no longer be valid. Additionally, it may be difficult to find a professional roofing contractor who is familiar with working with discontinued shingles. It’s important to consult a professional roofing contractor to ensure that the work is done safely and efficiently.
