Asphalt roofing shingles offer homeowners a beautiful, affordable and reliable residential roofing system. They come in a variety of styles, textures and colors. They are also cost-effective, durable and quite easy to maintain. As your trusted roofing contractors, Wadden Construction discusses the benefits of asphalt shingles.
Durability
Reliable, durable, long-lasting asphalt roofs are leak-resistant with proper installation. They can last up to 30 years or more. Longevity comes from the roof’s ideal weight. It is neither too light – which means lower chances of wind uplift problems – nor so heavy that it requires added roof reinforcement.
Asphalt shingle roofs are resistant to fire when installed with fiberglass matting. They do quite well against strong winds, usually staying put in the roughest weather. They also come with a vent to release any moisture or heat trapped in the attic.
Lasting Beauty
A roof is by far the most visible, distinguishable and important part of a home. You want your roofing system to add curb appeal to your home. It comes as no surprise then that four out of five homes in the U.S. rely on asphalt roofing shingles.
One of the biggest advantages of asphalt roofing is its aesthetic versatility. It comes in a wide variety of colors and styles that can provide a more natural appearance. It can also match the look of much more expensive materials such as metal, cedar, sequoia and slate.
