If you’re planning to re-roof your home, you will need to consider a number of key factors. Chief among them is the type of roof material to choose. In today’s highly competitive market, asphalt shingles is by far one of the most common choices thanks to its variety of styles and colors. While it is certainly popular for its curb appeal, does it have any other advantages?
For the first part of this series, Crown Roofing LTD , the New Westminster roofing specialists, examines the benefits of installing asphalt shingles aside from just curb appeal:
Economic Alternative
Asphalt shingles offer one of the most relatively low upfront costs. In fact, this is one of the reasons so many homeowners favor it today.
Ease of Installation
Asphalt shingles are among the easiest roofing systems to install. That said, installing them isn’t a DIY project, as you will still need the skill and experience of a certified roofing contractor. It just means that we can install it in a much shorter time frame than most other roofs. We are the experts in roof installation in Surrey, and you can count on us to install your roof the right way.
Lighter Weight
Compared to slate and tile, asphalt is one of the lighter roofing materials on the market today. This feature makes asphalt a great choice for just about any home, since they don’t impose much weight on the underlying framework.
Durability
With proper installation, asphalt shingle roofs can last a long time. Most of them can have a lifespan of anywhere between 10 and 30 years! This is of course dependent on its sources, as well as the skill of its installers. We work with GAF® to provide you with the highest quality shingle roofs.
