Choosing a new roof material cannot be based solely on aesthetics. Curb appeal is important; however, your roof contributes to so many things that make your home livable.
To decide what roofing material is right for you
we suggest focusing on a few key factors:
Roof Slope
Roof pitch plays an important role in choosing the proper materials. The ability for your roof to drain water is an important factor. Asphalt shingles are the most popular choice in the roofing industry for residential roofs. That is because most residential roofs have a steep pitch allowing water to drain easily. If there are any parts of your roof that have a low slope we recommend a specialized product that is more leak-resistant when exposed to pooling water.
Weather Endurance
It is also important to think about the durability of the material. Quality installation and proper maintenance can make a roof last as long as possible and reduce the need for roof repair. You should also learn about the expected longevity of the chosen materials. All materials are not created equal, so make sure you research the products’ weather resistance so you know how it will hold up to the climate in your area before deciding what material is right for you.
Long Term Maintenance
Deciding to buy a new roof is a significant investment that will last decades. At Medrano Roofing we only use quality materials, but all materials require maintenance to last. Some materials upkeep is more expensive than others, so make sure you are aware of future costs before deciding what is right for your home. Proper maintenance will reduce the chances of requiring costly roof repair.
Energy Efficiency
The ability of your roof to reflect heat could make all the difference in your indoor comfort. ENERGY STAR certified roof products reflect more of the sun’s rays. This can lower roof surface temperature by up to 50°F, reducing the amount of heat transferred inside your home.
Material Weight
The Weight of the material can affect multiple factors, like installation timeline and labor costs. If you choose a material heavier than your current roofing material could require structural adjustments to make sure your home can support the additional weight. Installing a heavier roof without reinforcing the roof’s structure could not only lead to costly roof repair but also could cause structural instability.
Architectural Authenticity
If you live in an older home, it is important to honor tradition when choosing materials to replace your roof. Usually, a more traditional home will use wood shake, slates, or masonry tiles. On the other hand, a more contemporary home could use a metal roofing system.
Price Range
Most importantly, look at your finances and determine what price point you can afford. The cost of roofing materials can differ greatly. Materials account for a significant amount of the project cost. Be sure to also make room in your budget for labor, permit fees, as well as unexpected changes or structural roof repair. Deciding what is the right roofing material for your home can be a challenge but we are here to help you every step of the way.
