ANSWER: The average life of a typical asphalt shingle roof is 20 years, according to Dean Morekas, home inspector with Boswell Building Surveys Inc. However, he cautioned that the life expectancy can be significantly reduced if attic ventilation is poor or if there are multiple layers of shingles.
Roofs: Slate, copper and tile roofs can last more than 50 years. Homeowners with wood shake roofs should expect them to last about 30 years, while fiber cement shingles last about 25 years and asphalt shingle/composition roofs last about 20 years, the NAHB found. Climate and weather conditions, such as snow, hail and hurricanes, can cut the life span of all types of roofs.
