Types of Roofs We Install
At Zimmerman’s Roofing, we understand that roofs aren’t a one-size-fits-all option. That’s why our roofing contractors are able to install a wide variety of roof types to fit all home styles. Our roofing options include:
- Asphalt shingle roofs: Fiberglass asphalt shingles are an affordable choice that come in a wide range of styles and colors. They also have a life span of up to 50 years, making them an excellent choice for any roof that is not flat.
- Metal roofs: Metal roofs come in three types: standing seam, corrugated, and metal shingles. These roofs last a long time and require minimal maintenance, but they can be loud when it rains.
- Slate roofs: Synthetic slate gives you the look of real slate with minimal maintenance. While it’s a more expensive upfront option, it offers a beautiful look for your home that will last for many years.
- Cedar shake roofs: Cedar shake is a popular choice because of its unique look. With the many different options for cedar shake roofs, our professionals can guide you through the selection.
- Flat roofs: Rubber roofing is an ideal choice for flat roofs. With the right maintenance, these roofs can last 30 to 40 years.
How To Know What Roof Is Right for Your Home
There are many things to consider when choosing the right roof for your home. This includes:
- Slope: A roof with a steep pitch can easily drain, but those with lower slopes will need to choose a product that is more leak-resistant if you experience pooling water.
- Style: Most homes have a specific architectural style. From Craftsman to Spanish, you’ll want to select a roofing material that matches the aesthetic of the home
- Climate: If you live in an area that experiences more extreme weather, you may want to choose a more durable roofing material.
- Maintenance: Some materials require more maintenance than others. If you are not willing to do the maintenance yourself or want to limit the need to call for professional maintenance, there are materials that are easier to maintain.
- Energy efficiency: If you struggle to keep your house cool, you may want to look for a roofing material that is able to reflect heat better than others.
- Weight: Some roof materials are heavier than others and may require additional structural adjustment for support.
- Price range: We have roofing materials that fit any budget so that you don’t have to sacrifice style or durability.
