Foam roofing has gained popularity over the last 30 years. Foam roofs last around 10 â 15 years. Their affordability and insulating nature help make this a more serious option for homeowners. If the foam is recoated every 5-10 years, a foam roof can last up to twice as long.

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.
