What are the different types of roofing materials?

A professionally installed roof made with quality materials can last for many years, even decades. But if your roof needs to be replaced, there are obvious signs of wear and tear you should look for. If you notice cracked, curled or peeling shingles, your roof is sagging, or if you are finding loose shingles around your yard, these are all signs that your roof needs to be replaced. If your roof has localized damage, leaking or wear, it is likely that roof repair is the preferred option. A leaky roof may not necessarily require replacement, but if the problem is bad enough, a new roof may be your best option. Your roofing contractor will inspect your roof to determine the most appropriate and effective course of action prior to beginning any work.

Learn More About the Parts of Your Roof

Roof Ventilation: Balanced intake and exhaust ventilation helps move heat and moisture out of the attic. Ridge-Cap Shingles: Specialized shingles cover the roof’s peaks and help protect the ridge from wind and water. Architectural Shingles: Layered shingles add dimension while helping protect the roof from changing weather. Roof Valleys: Valleys direct water away from areas where two sloped roof sections meet. Gutters and Downspouts: Gutters and downspouts collect roof runoff and carry it away from the home’s exterior and foundation. Chimney Flashing: Metal flashing helps direct water away from joints around the chimney and walls. Underlayment: A protective layer beneath shingles adds a second line of defense against wind-driven rain.
