Roofing

“We specialize in metal roofing and asphalt shingles. Additionally, we offer flat roof installations using torch-on membranes and cedar shingles roof installation.”

When replacing your roof, choosing the right material is crucial. Two popular options are asphalt shingles and metal. Below, we’ve outlined the pros and cons of each to help you decide.

Advantages of Metal Roofing:

  1. Lightweight: Reduces strain on the roof structure, and preserves building integrity.
  2. Low Maintenance: Metal roofs stand out from the rest for the little or no maintenance they require. Once a professional has installed your roof correctly, the only maintenance required is clearing debris. Occasionally, you may also have to clean it to maintain its fresh look
  3. Longevity: Lasts 40–70 years, far surpassing shingle roofs’ 10–15 years.
  4. Durability: Highly resistant to extreme weather conditions, including strong winds, snow, hail, and heat, when professionally installed.

Disadvantages of Metal Roofing:

  1. Higher Initial Cost: Metal roofs are more expensive than asphalt shingles, both for materials and installation.
  2. Labor-Intensive Installation: Requires precise installation to avoid leaks, leading to higher costs and longer installation times.
  3. Noise: Can be noisy during heavy rain or hail unless attic insulation is improved, which adds to the overall cost.

Advantages of Shingle Roofing:

  1. Easy Installation and Replacement: Quick and straightforward to install or replace, requiring less time and labor compared to metal roofs.
  2. Affordable Repairs: Leaks are easier and cheaper to fix; individual shingles can be replaced quickly.
  3. Short-Term Cost Savings: Lower initial cost per square meter compared to metal, making it more economical upfront, despite higher long-term costs due to a shorter lifespan.

Disadvantages of Shingle Roofing:

  1. Short Lifespan: Shingles typically last up to 15 years, depending on material and coating.
  2. Higher Long-Term Costs: While cheaper upfront, frequent replacements can make shingles more expensive than metal roofing over time.
  3. Limited Color Variety: Mostly available in dull, dark colors, with limited options for bright or vivid shades.
