Installing a new material on your roof is a big job for anyone especially since there are so many options out there to choose. A popular option for many homeowners is asphalt shingles because they are highly durable and affordable. There are two types of asphalt shingles, organic and fiberglass, but the fiberglass option is more widely used because it is lightweight and water resistant. Asphalt shingles offer several benefits to every homeowner after installation is complete.
If you live in an area that is known for extreme winds and severe rain, asphalt shingles are the perfect option for your roof. Dimensional asphalt shingles can stand up to 110 to 130 mph winds, so they will never lift or fly off your roof. Asphalt shingles are designed to be high impact resistant, so they will survive a hail or rain storm. Fiberglass shingles have the highest fire rating, so they offer superior protection against penetration and spread in the case of a fire. Asphalt shingles will last through any weather pattern or fire that comes your way.
Compared to other materials such as metal and concrete, asphalt shingles are a low-cost option for homeowners. The material maintains a low upfront cost and some varieties last up to 40 years. The affordability of asphalt shingles gives you the room in your budget to focus on other parts of your home to remodel.
Asphalt shingles come in a variety of shapes, angles, and styles so you can customize your roof to perfectly fit your needs. There are a number of styles and colors to choose from making asphalt shingles a great choice for families of different ages and backgrounds. You can pick from a more tradition style shingle to a more modern style that will make your house stand out on the block.
