There is a reason that asphalt shingles remain the #1 roofing material in the U.S. Their flexibility and designs possibilities are really hard to match.

You may not realize this, but metal roofing has been shown to be rapidly increasing in popularity for its use on homes. If you are having trouble settling on new roofing material you should call us, today. Let our years of experience help you decide. We can go over your options, and make sure that you choose the roofing material that is right for you.

Does Your Roof Need to be Replaced?

Have you observed missing or cracked shingles on your roof? Maybe a storm did some significant damage to a portion of it. If you’re not sure whether you need roof repair or a entire new roof, here are some questions to ask yourself.

What is the roof made of, and more importantly how old is it? If you have an asphalt shingle roof that’s 20 years old or older, it may be approaching the end of its life. Check the shingles for bald, shiny, or worn spots. If you need extensive repairs, you might consider re-roofing your home instead.

However, if you have a tile roof and only experienced minor damage, repair would be more cost effective. Tiles are easy to replace since they are installed independently. There are also flat roofs, usually covered in a rubber, PVC, or other synthetic material. These roofs vary in durability depending on the material and quality of installation. Unfortunately water leakage can be a real issue with flat roofs. And everyone knows that can lead to water damage, which is a costly problem. Many inexperienced roofers don’t realize how challenging a flat roof installation or repair can be. It is certainly not a job you want to entrust to a new roofer. A flat roof can last as little as 10 years, or more than 50 years depending on the material that is used.

Unlike other roofing materials, all metals roofs are made from recycled content. Another advantage of metal roofs is that they tend to last for a very long time. Which means there is much less likelihood you will need to repair it or replace it in the foreseeable future.
