“’What kind of roof lasts the longest?’ is one of the most common questions people have when they are looking to have a roof repaired or replaced,” says DC Roofing of Arizona. “An average roof is replaced every 20-25 years. Since the roof is the top covering of any building, and is responsible for keeping the elements of weather outside the building as well as a consistent, comfortable environment inside, it is probably the most important—and vulnerable—part of what is known as the ‘building envelope.’”

They add, “Climate and environmental factors are important to the lifespan of any roof. Roofs that are exposed to tremendous heat or cold tend to have shorter lifespans. In commercial or industrial areas, chemicals, exhausts and residue from the manufacturing process can break down most types of roofing materials more quickly than just sun, wind and weather.”

The lifespan of a roof is affected by the quality of care it receives, with well-maintained roofs lasting decades and poorly maintained ones going into decline a lot sooner. The design of the roof and the building it covers also affect how long the roof lasts. Flat roofs, according to DC Roofing, typically do not last very long due to the somewhat limited choice of materials available. On average, a roof will last about 20 years, but they can last as little as 10 years or even over 50 years.
