Among the last of the northern sections
The northern part of Morrison Ranch, above Elliot Rd, was built from about 2000 to 2008. Highland Groves came near the end of that run, with US Home (Lennar) homes from 2007–2008. Listings show tile roofs.
That makes Highland Groves younger than nearby sections like Higley Groves, but still old enough that roof planning should be on your radar. The Town of Gilbert also lists a separate Highland Groves (Orangewood) association; this page covers the Morrison Ranch section.
Planning ahead at 17–19 years
Felt underlayment typically lasts about 20–25 years under Arizona tile. At 17–19 years, Highland Groves roofs are a few years from that window, which is a good position to be in. You have time to plan.
An inspection now gives you a baseline. If the underlayment is still flexible, you can budget for the work in a few years. If some areas are already worn, such as south- and west-facing slopes that get the most sun, you can address those before they leak.
Signs worth calling about now
Even before underlayment reaches the end of its life, some problems shouldn't wait:
- Ceiling stains, even small ones, after monsoon rains
- Cracked or broken tiles you can see from the ground
- Tiles that slid out of line after wind storms
- Gaps or rust around flashing at chimneys or walls
- Worn coating or ponding on flat patio roofs
Repair now or replace later?
For a 2007–2008 roof, the most common answer is to repair what's needed today and plan underlayment replacement for the next few years. Fixing cracked tiles and resealing flashing now helps the underlayment last as long as it can.
When the time comes, a lift-and-relay reuses your existing tile over new underlayment. If the tile itself is worn, a full roof replacement may make sense. Every roof is different; our Roofing Cost Guide explains what affects cost, and financing is available.
A simple maintenance plan for the next few years
Because Highland Groves roofs still have some life left, a little upkeep now can stretch it. These habits help keep a 2008 roof from aging faster than it has to:
- Have the roof looked at every couple of years and after severe storms
- Clear valleys and gutters each spring before storm season
- Keep tree limbs trimmed back from the roofline
- Ask solar or HVAC installers to avoid walking on tile where possible
- Keep a folder of roof records to show future buyers
