What type of roof is right for your home? What you need to know.
There are a variety of quality roofing materials out there to choose from for your roof. Will you choose
concrete or clay tiles, asphalt or cedar shingles, a metal roof or maybe even slate? Factors, such as price of
materials, cost for installation, the finished look that you want, your home's own style and size, as well as
how complicated the design of the roof is, all weigh into the decision making process.

To determine which material is right for your roof, you must
consider the following:
1) What is the cost for materials?
2) How much will installation be for this roofing material?
3) Is any maintenance required?
4) How long will the roof last? What is the longevity of the
material?
5) How long is the material warranted for? The best roofing
warranties are transferable and are not prorated.
6) Will the roof be easy to repair? Wood and asphalt shingles are
the easiest to repair.
7) Am I living in a wet climate? Will my roof be shaded?
8) Does my home have sufficient structural strength to support
this roofing material? Extra framing support will be needed for
clay or concrete roof tiles.
9) What kind of roof would best suit the style of my house?
10) In order to match the proportions of my home, which roofing
shingle would be best?
11) Does my roof have a complex design?
12) Is my home in a high risk area for fire?
13) Do I live in an area that is prone to high winds and
hurricanes?
14) What colors are available? Note that light-colored roofs can
lower the amount of air-conditioning that your home consumes.
