How long does a new roof last?

A new roof should last between 30 and 40 years depending on the product used. Since we experience a lot of hail and snow here in Idaho and throughout the northwest, our roofs take quite the beating every storm.

Types of Roofs and Lifespans

  • Slate, copper, and tile roofs averagely last about 40 years.

  • Wood shake roofs typically have a lifespan of 30 years.

  • Fiber cement shingles last about 25 years.

  • Asphalt shingles or composition roofs averagely last about 20 years.
