We understand that replacing your roof is a significant investment, and we are here to provide you with the information and expertise you need to make the best decision for your home.

When it comes to choosing a new roof, two popular options to consider are asphalt shingles and metal roofing. Each material offers its own unique advantages and considerations.

Asphalt Shingles

  1. Affordability. Asphalt shingles are generally more affordable upfront compared to metal roofing, making them a popular choice for homeowners on a budget.
  2. Wide Variety. Asphalt shingles come in a wide range of colors, styles, and textures, allowing you to find a look that complements your home’s architectural style.
  3. Installation and Maintenance. Asphalt shingles are relatively easy to install, and repairs or replacements can be done on specific damaged areas if necessary. Regular maintenance involves periodic inspection and replacement of damaged shingles.
  4. Durability. High-quality asphalt shingles can offer good durability, with an average lifespan ranging from 15 to 30 years, depending on the type and quality of shingles used.
  5. Weather Resistance. Asphalt shingles are designed to withstand various weather conditions, including wind, rain, and moderate hail. However, extreme weather events may pose a higher risk of damage compared to metal roofing.

Metal Roofing

  1. Longevity. Metal roofing is known for its exceptional longevity. With proper installation and maintenance, metal roofs can last 40 years or more, making them a long-term investment.
  2. Energy Efficiency. Metal roofing often has reflective coatings that can reduce heat absorption and help keep your home cooler, potentially lowering your cooling costs. Additionally, metal roofing is recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
  3. Weather Resistance. Metal roofs excel in weather resistance, offering excellent protection against wind, rain, snow, and even fire. They have high durability and can withstand extreme weather conditions, making them particularly suitable for areas prone to hurricanes, heavy snowfall, or wildfires.
  4. Lightweight and Low Maintenance. Metal roofing is lightweight compared to other roofing materials, which can reduce the stress on the structure of your home. It requires minimal maintenance, usually limited to occasional inspections and removing debris.
  5. Aesthetics. Metal roofing is available in a variety of styles, including standing seam, metal tiles, and metal shakes, allowing you to achieve a modern or traditional look for your home. It can add a sleek and contemporary touch to your property.
  6. Noise. Some homeowners may have concerns about noise associated with rain or hail hitting a metal roof. However, with proper insulation and installation techniques, noise can be mitigated to a comfortable level.

It’s important to consider your budget, climate, desired lifespan, energy efficiency goals, and aesthetic preferences when deciding between asphalt shingles and metal roofing. Consulting with the roofing professionals at Risk-Free Exteriors can help you evaluate these factors and choose the option that best suits your needs.
