For now, here are our most popular and durable roof types:
Metal roofing is renowned for its durability and longevity, often lasting 40 years or more with proper installation and maintenance. Available in various styles, including panels and shingles, metal roofs can be made from materials like steel, aluminum, or copper. One of the key benefits of metal roofing is its excellent resistance to fire, rot, and insect damage, which can significantly reduce maintenance costs over time.
​
Metal roofs are energy-efficient, reflecting solar heat and potentially lowering cooling costs, while also being environmentally friendly as they are often made from recycled materials.​ We are proud to install Decra metal roofs, which are available in tile, shingle, and shake styles.
Composite roofing is an increasingly popular option that combines various materials, typically including asphalt, fiberglass, and recycled products, to create durable and lightweight roofing shingles.
One of its primary benefits is its versatility; composite roofs can mimic the look of traditional materials such as wood, slate, or tile, offering aesthetic appeal without the associated maintenance costs. Additionally, composite roofing is known for its resistance to extreme weather conditions, such as high winds and heavy rain, making it a reliable choice for homeowners looking for longevity and durability.
Asphalt roofing is one of the most commonly used roofing materials due to its affordability and ease of installation. Typically available in shingles, asphalt roofs can come in a variety of colors and styles, allowing homeowners to achieve their desired look.
One of the main advantages of asphalt roofing is its cost-effectiveness; it provides excellent protection against the elements at a relatively low price point. Additionally, modern asphalt shingles often come with enhanced durability features, including UV resistance and improved warranties, making them a practical choice for many homeowners. We use only the best asphalt shingles from manufacturers like​ GAF and Malarkey.
Flat Roofing
Flat roofing is a popular option for commercial buildings and some residential properties, characterized by its low-slope design. One of the significant benefits of flat roofing is its versatility; it can be used as an additional outdoor space, such as a rooftop garden or patio, expanding usable areas in a home.
Flat roofs are typically easier and safer to access for maintenance, repairs, or inspections. Moreover, they often require fewer materials than pitched roofs, potentially lowering initial construction costs.
Synthetic Roofing
Synthetic roofing is a cutting-edge option made from advanced materials designed to mimic the appearance of traditional roofing materials like wood shake or slate. The primary advantage of synthetic roofing is its lightweight nature, making it easier to install and requiring less structural support compared to heavier materials.
​
Synthetic roofs are also highly durable, and often resistant to UV rays, algae, and extreme weather, which helps reduce maintenance needs over time. Additionally, many synthetic roofing products are eco-friendly, made from recycled materials, and can be recycled at the end of their life cycle, appealing to environmentally conscious homeowners.
