How Long Does a Shingle Roof Last?

A shingle roof typically lasts between 15 to 30 years, depending on the type of shingles used:

  1. Asphalt Shingles: These are the most common and usually last 15 to 30 years. Architectural or laminated asphalt shingles tend to last longer than 3-tab shingles, often reaching 25–30 years.

  2. Wood Shingles: These generally last 20 to 25 years, though maintenance and climate conditions can impact their longevity.

  3. Slate or Synthetic Shingles: Slate can last 50 years or more and is extremely durable, while synthetic options can last around 40 years.

Factors like weather, maintenance, ventilation, and installation quality can all affect the lifespan of your roof. Regular inspections and repairs can help extend its longevity.
