Curling shingles are a common roofing problem that homeowners may encounter. They are shingles that have started to warp and buckle, losing their original flatness.

They often appear to be lifted away from the roof, giving them a curved or wavy appearance.

You may notice that the corners or edges of the shingles are turning upwards, resembling a fish’s lips. This is known as “fish mouthing,” common in asphalt shingles.

Curling roof shingles can occur on different shingles, including asphalt, wood, clay, and concrete.

However, asphalt shingles are the most commonly affected by curling. This is because they are made of a mixture of asphalt and fiberglass, which can be prone to warping and buckling over time.

Preventing curling shingles starts with proper installation and maintenance of your roof. Ensure your roof is installed by a professional and all shingles are secured correctly.
