Average lifespan of different roof covering materials

  • Asphalt Shingles:

    Lifespan: 15-25 years warranty, lasts 20-40 years
    Advantages: inexpensive, low maintenance, easy to install.
    Disadvantages: Less resistant to wind and rain

  • Architectural Asphalt Shingles:

    Lifespan: 24 – 30 years

  • Fiberglass Shingles:

    Lifespan: up to 50 years
    Advantages: more expensive than asphalt, low maintenance, easy to install.
    Disadvantages: Less resistant to wind and rain

  • Wood shingles:

    Lifespan: around 30 years if properly treated
    Made from: pressure-treated wood
    More expensive tan asphalt shingles.
    Requires periodic maintenance
    Advantages: looks much better

  • Metal or Galvalume:

    Lifespan: 50 years or more.
    Made from: galvanized or stainless steel sheeting
    Light material

  • Cooper:

    Lifespan: can last up to 100 years
    Expensive, but looks good

  • Stone (slate) tiles:

    Lifespan: 50 to 100 years
    Heavy - requires a stronger roof structure

  • Clay tiles:

    Lifespan: 40 to 60 years
    Heavy - requires a stronger roof structure

  • Concrete tiles:

    Lifespan: 40 to 60 years
    Heavy - requires a stronger roof structure

Other factors that can affect a roof's lifespan.
Color: Darker colors absorb more heat so they last less.
Slope: A roof with a high pitch can last longer because snow and rain can not settle on the roof.
Orientation: Roof materials on slopes that face the sun more hours during a day, can have a shorter lifespan.
Ventilation: A well ventilated roof increases the lifespan of the covering materials by reducing heat and by not letting mould mildew and wood rot appear.
