Residential Roofing Services
Residential roofing systems are an essential part of any building. It is responsible for protecting your home and keeping you safe from rain, snow, hail, or wind. There are so many options to choose from, and it can be hard to know what would work best in different situations, such as choosing between asphalt shingles or metal roofs. The most common type of residential roof you will find today is an asphalt-shingle roof because they’re typically the cheapest option available. Still, ceramic tiled roofs offer durability, with tiles being one piece instead of individual components like traditional slate rooftops.

Types Of Residential Roofing
1. Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are the most well-known residential roofing materials in the United States. It is popular because it’s economical and easy to install, as well as durable. Other benefits of asphalt roofs include various colors and styles that suit almost any home, installation ease for even those with little construction experience or skill set! The life expectancy for an average asphalt shingle roof ranges from 15-20 years, depending on location – so if you’re looking into installing one this year, be sure to consider these specifications before making your final decision.
2. Metal Roofing
For the environmentally minded and those who want to save money, metal roofing is a great option. Metal shingles are lightweight – so they’re easy for one person to install themselves when it comes time to fix any minor issues that arise after installation. For more complex jobs, you will need an experienced contractor in installing metal roofs to avoid your new investment ruined by errors. Like other types of plastics or metals on buildings like vinyl siding or aluminum gutters, repainting is needed if a bit of wear starts showing up over time without having the expense of replacing entire sections at once.
3. Slate Roof Shingles
Slate roof shingles are an elegant and sophisticated style that will last for generations. If you’re looking to give your home a luxurious, stately look while also protecting it from fire damage, slate is the way to go! Not only does this material provide excellent insulation, but with proper maintenance and care can be expected to live over 100 years! Slate tiles come in various colors, including black, which creates a dramatic effect when installed on roofs or floors. The downside of these brilliant materials comes at their weight; you must handle them carefully as carrying them alone poses serious risks.
4. Ceramic Roofing Tiles
Ceramic roofing tiles are a durable choice for those looking to add character and style. Ceramic is resistant to fading, fireproof, long-lasting, with an average lifespan of 50-70 years. Ceramic tile’s unsuitability in climates where the weather fluctuates can lead them to be susceptible to erosion caused by rain or snowmelt that seeps between the cracks, which will cause damage on contact when walked upon (especially if people tend to walk across areas not covered). High winds also pose a problem because they could potentially break fragile pieces from roofs such as these but often result in cracking rather than breaking off entirely due to their lighter weight compared to other materials like concrete or stone.
5. Wood Shakes And Cedar Shingles
Wood shake roofs are durable in any climate, and they’re perfect for hot or sunny areas. They can withstand harsh weather conditions, which is a plus if you live in places where there are strong thunderstorms. Wood shakes offer an environmentally sound choice with the bonus of being green-friendly because these roofs use recycled wood or harvested resources sustainably. If your goal is to decrease costs on energy bills, then this roofing material might be best for you since it works as a natural insulator that will keep your house cool during the summer months and warm during the winter seasons.
