While there are several types of roofing materials to choose from - and made by a vast array of companies - they are the most popular on houses in the Dallas region:

• Asphalt shingles

• Tile

• Slate and synthetic slate

• Wood

A majority of people choose their roofing material based on their home's design style. For instance, you wouldn't often see a wooden roof on a Mediterranean-style residence for instance.

 

Asphalt Shingles

Asphalt shingles are among the most popular roofing materials in the United States. If properly cared for and maintenance, they may last for up to 20-30 years. Asphalt shingles are wind-resistant to a degree and moderately impact-resistant (important to be aware of during hail season). There are numerous asphalt shingles with an additional wind and impact resistance.

 

Tile Roofing Materials

The history of tile roofing is lengthy and rich. In the past, in China the very first tiles were used for roof construction. They're durable and reliable however they're usually higher priced than other roofing materials are. Concrete is cheaper than clay, if you choose to go with tiles. Tile roofs made of concrete or clay, are common on Mediterranean-style, Mission, Spanish Colonial and Italian Renaissance houses. A metal roofing company in San Antonio TX is skilled in every type of roofing.

 

Slate as well as Synthetic Slate

Slate makes an attractive roofing material, but it's heavy. It's also not the case that all homes are able to support the weight of a slate roof. It's also fragile and costly, which makes it an excellent choice for roofing materials. However, synthetic slate is much more affordable, durable and lightweight than actual slate is and is the ideal option. Synthetic slate is durable enough to withstand high wind, hail storms, and other threats to the environment. It's also exactly like real slate. Call anytime, roof contractors in my area.

 

Wood Roofing Materials

Cedar shakes and shingles aren't as common as they used be. Because they're not fire-proof and because they require a large amount of maintenance on a regular basis, you don't see them on most homes. They're beautiful and long-lasting, and can help improve your home's energy efficiency. Most people find synthetic alternatives are superior, especially when it comes to fire resistance and affordability.
