If you need a new roof and want something that will last, you should consider metal. Metal roofs installed by local roofing contractors like Skywalker Roofing can last more than 70 years and are resistant to corrosion and cracking. Depending on the exact type of metal you have installed, a metal roof may even be impact-resistant. And since this type of roofing does not require regular maintenance, it tends to be the most cost-efficient type of roof to have installed.

Shingle roofing is generally the most affordable type of roofing material. This roofing type works well on steep-sloped structures and is extremely versatile; just keep in mind that it does come with periodic maintenance needs. Still, shingle roofing doesn’t require specialized accessories, like wall terminations or vent flashings, making it an excellent roof installation choice.

Having a wood shake roof installed is a great way to add aesthetic appeal to your home, especially if you favor a rustic look. From dimensional stability to durability and even enhanced insulating capabilities, wood shake roofing comes with numerous advantages. You can also opt to have a wood shake roof installed with hip and ridge units, which is an effective way to add a finishing touch that you won’t find with any other type of roofing material.

One of the primary benefits of having a flat roof installed is its cost advantage. From start to finish, a flat roof installation tends to be quite inexpensive when compared to other roofing options, and the required maintenance tends to be cheaper as well. Another advantage of having a flat roof installed is that once it’s finished, you can use the space of the roof as a patio or even a covered sunroom.

A notable benefit of tile roofing installation is that it can be made to complement just about any architectural style. And with a variety of color shades to choose from, you can efficiently coordinate it with your existing home’s exterior. When compared to asphalt shingle roofing, houses with a tile roof tend to sell quicker, and tile’s long-term durability is another plus.

Slate tiles are considered one of the highest-quality, longest-lasting roofing materials. Slate’s durability makes it a perfect roofing material to be split into sheets of various width. Slate roofing does need highly skilled roofing artisans, as it’s really a custom-made job where a slate tile is cut, trimmed and fixed mostly by hand labor! Slate adds an aesthetic charm to your building, and Skywalker Roofing is happy to provide this custom option for you.
