Metal roofing is generally made of steel, aluminum, or copper. Although this does mean it is more expensive than traditional shingle roofing, metal roofing does have a much longer lifespan. In order to prepare for installation, rolls of 24- or 26-gauge steel sheets are given a metallic coating to prevent rust, followed by a baked-on paint finish. This paint finish can be customized to a color that fits the overall look of your home. Steel roofing products are coated with either zinc (galvanized) or a mixture of aluminum and zinc. The coatings are offered in multiple thicknesses—the thicker the coating the longer the life, and the higher the cost.
With a wide array of options, relative ease of installation, and economical production, asphalt shingles are today’s most popular roofing material. We are a certified installer of all of the trusted shingle manufacturers, including GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning. Our roofing consultants will work with you to select a quality shingle that fits the look of your home and your budget. We understand that matching shingles to the house color is a complex decision, so we will work with you to find your perfect shingle color and texture.
If you are looking for a roofing system that will not only protect your home from the elements but also provide a natural look, Wood Shake shingles are the perfect compliment. Cedar Shaker Roofing are energy efficient, providing a natural insulation up to two times that of asphalt shingles. Cedar wood shingles and shakes are resistant to strong winds and are durable in hurricanes, heavy rains, hail storms, snowstorms, and other types of severe storms. Aesthetically, the look is timeless and unique, they are commonly made out of cedar, redwood, or cypress.
Slate roofs are extremely strong and durable. Natural slate has many desirable qualities from a roofing perspective: it is waterproof, fire resistant, a good electrical insulator (which lends energy efficiency) and an overall strong material. Slate delivers a long-lasting roof with a lifespan of 80-100 years or more, providing excellent long-term value. In fact, some slate roofs have withstood the ravages of Mother Nature for several hundred years! Other types of manufactured roofing materials, such as metals and asphalt, would need to be re-roofed three or four times within this same period.
