Default How long does shingle roof last?

If one gets a new asphalt? shingle roof with 20-year Monsanto? shingles,

Mine is only 13 years old and has a small leak already. I can't see the
back half of the roof from the ground, but the leak is in the middle,
not by the chimney flashing.

I watched them put it on and they did a good job. They used famous name
shingles, though I can't remember if it was Monsanto, 3M maybe.


Micky-

I agree that a pro roofer should be able to fix it.

Depending on your climate, it might last another ten years. Would that
satisfy you?
