Need a new roof but can't afford it

Last time you climbed up a ladder and cleaned out your gutters, you got a magnified view of your roof. A few turned up shingles, moss, some rust action —  are these blemishes normal, or are they signs that you need a new roof?

When you start noticing your roof’s age, bring in the experts to determine if it’s time for a replacement.

“We want our houses to look as good as possible from the curb and from the photographs.
