        "text": "Several signs indicate your roof may need replacement. Look for missing, cracked, or curled shingles. Granules in gutters are also a red flag, as they suggest the protective layer of asphalt shingles is wearing away. Interior water stains on ceilings or walls are definitive indicators of a leak. If your roof is over 20-25 years old, even without obvious damage, it's worth having a professional inspection to assess its remaining lifespan and structural integrity.",
