Roofing Types
Metal Roofing
- Longevity. Metal roofs can last 40-70 years, depending on the material.
- Durability. If installed correctly, metal roofs can sustain wind gusts up to 140 miles per hour, will not corrode or crack and may be more impact resistant (depending on which product you choose).
- Safety. Metal roofs will not spark and ignite into flames during a wildfire or lightning strike.
- Energy efficiency. Metal roofs reflect the suns UV and infrared light rays that contribute to roof surface radiant heat, which can result in a 10-25% reduction in cooling costs.
- Environmentally friendly. Metal roofs not only have 25-95% recycled content, depending on the material used, but are also 100% recyclable at the end of their life as a roof.
Asphalt Shingle Roof
Durable Materials
Asphalt Shingles are durable solutions that are resistant to many different types of damage. When you implement asphalt shingles to your property, you will be able to keep your roof in better condition for an extended period of time.
Reflect Sunlight
Asphalt shingles tend to reflect UV rays from the sun, rather than absorbing them. This helps you to ensure that your home is much more comfortable, especially during the hot summer temperatures.
Lightweight
Asphalt shingles are rather lightweight, which helps to limit the amount of strain that you place on your building. This is especially important when you live in snowy climates because the snow will put additional weight on your roof.
A Versatile Aesthetic
Asphalt shingles are extremely versatile, which enables you to modify the appearance of your roof. They tend to be available in a large variety of styles, colors, and shapes.
