Residential Shingle Options
As a homeowner you have multiple options when replacing your roof. Below you will find those options as well as a little bit of information to help you decide on what type of shingle to get on your next roof.

Asphalt roof shingles remain the most commonly installed type of residential roofing system in use today. Asphalt roof shingles begin with a continuous fiberglass "mat" that creates strength and tear resistance.
Fortified hot asphalt goes through a strengthening process, where it is "oxidized" by blowing hot air through it to increase its viscosity and firm up the material. This roofing asphalt is then bonded to the top and bottom of the mat layer to form a waterproof barrier.
Finally, crushed and screened granules are embedded into the top layer of asphalt, offering a layer of protection from heat damage, UV rays, and degradation - while providing the shingle color & shading that you see.

A slate roof is comprised of overlapping slate roof tiles securely attached to a solid substrate or roof deck on a sloped roof.
Sometimes called a hundred-year roof, when a slate roof is installed properly - it could last 100 years or longer.
Slate tile roofing is a very specialized field of roof installation...
And requires a contractor that is experienced in working with and installing slate roof tiles on various types of projects.
You will find slate tile roofing systems on all kinds of residential, commercial, and historical properties - from resorts to museums and roofing for churches to educational institutions.

If the roofline of your home is steep or flat, you may want to opt for a metal roof. Made with either constructed or solid metal, this type of roof is both durable and enduring. Metal roofing is very affordable when constructed from a low-galvanized metal. Other types of metal to install include copper, tin, zinc and aluminum.

If it’s style you’re going for, you may find the perfect match in tile shingles. Tile shingles can be molded in several different shapes and are often made in lighter colors, which keeps them cool. They are often seen on properties that have a colonial Spanish or Mediterranean style.
