Lindon is compact enough that we can usually work a whole neighbourhood in a day, which is part of why we like it. The housing runs from older properties along the original grid to newer construction on the east side, with steady infill in between.
The larger-lot homes here often have more roof square footage than their neighbours in Orem or Pleasant Grove. That matters both ways: a replacement quote is bigger, and so is the amount you save by not needing one yet.
What we see in Lindon
A good number of homes built in the late 1990s and 2000s that are now sitting at 20-plus years on original shingles. Some are still candidates. Many aren't. The difference usually comes down to orientation and attic ventilation rather than the build year, which is why we look rather than guess.
Lindon sits at roughly 4,700 feet, with the bench homes higher and more exposed.
Where these numbers come from
Nobody publishes roof-condition data by city, so anything claiming a precise count is guessing. What we do instead is straightforward: we start from Census housing counts and the era in which each city was built, then estimate how much of that stock falls in the six-to-eighteen-year window where rejuvenation applies.
The roof-life figures are typical ranges for asphalt shingles in Utah's high-UV, freeze–thaw climate — shorter than the number printed on the shingle wrapper, which is written against milder national averages. They're a guide to what we generally see, not a measurement of your roof.
Only an assessment tells you about your roof. It's free, it takes about twenty minutes, and roughly a third of the time our answer is that rejuvenation isn't the right call.
