In roofing, there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all formula; it all depends on your needs. Metal roofing is great for modern homes, while slate makes historic homes shine. Commercial buildings have different needs than residences as well. Flat roofs need materials that would not fit a steep-sloped roof.
Silver Leaf Contracting makes every effort to know everything your roofing project entails. As the area’s top roof replacement contractor, we’ll go over the features of each roofing option with you.
Metal
Metal roofs offer many benefits, most notably longevity and strength. Great for modern homes, they are becoming more popular among homeowners today. Metal is a lightweight but very durable roofing material. It is a durable material that can last for up to 50 years, even with minimal maintenance.
Slate
If you want a refined and durable roof, a slate roof is your best option. A natural stone product, slate gives a unique, sophisticated look that will last. Though installing one in your home may be a considerable investment, you’ll surely get great value for your money as it can last for up to a century.
Synthetic slate is usually rubber-based but it mimics the appearance of natural stone. Also very durable, it can last for up to 50 long years. This makes it a good choice for people looking for slate roofing without necessarily having the finances to bear the high cost it usually entails.
Rubber
EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) roofing is also known as rubber roofing. These roofs are 45 or 60 millimeters thick. Cost-effective, durable, and versatile, EPDM is most used for a low-slope or flat roof systems and, as such, are commonly found in commercial buildings and industrial settings.
Asphalt
Asphalt roofing is simple to install and offers a superior level of protection. Fiberglass or rag mat with asphalt usually make up a typical asphalt shingle. A coat of colored mineral granules adds more protection and enhanced appearance. Silver Leaf Contracting is among the leading asphalt shingle roof companies promoting this option.
