        "text": "Several signs indicate a complete roof replacement is necessary over minor repairs. These include widespread shingle damage like curling, buckling, or missing shingles, granular loss from asphalt shingles, significant leaks affecting multiple areas, or a roof that has reached or exceeded its expected lifespan, typically 20-25 years for asphalt shingles. A practical tradeoff is that while repairs might be cheaper initially, they often don't address underlying widespread aging or damage, leading to more frequent and costly issues over time.",
