i was walking on my roof the other day and there were some spots that felt kind of soft under my feet. the roof was replaced in 1999 and is only 1 layer. it only felt soft right at the edge of the roof and gutters, like right above the soffets. any ideas?

Yea moisture's probably building up in there !

Jump in your attic to see if a previous owner blocks up the soffet area for some stupid reason, if you know this or not a attic should temp in the winter should be almost as COLD as it is outside and well summer to......

moisture or ice damming issues I'm sure. Ice damming ruins roofs!

The simplest solution is to stop walking on your roof.
