Which Type of Roof is Best for Your Home?

Roofs come in so many different styles and shapes! Your roof is incredibly important to keeping your family warm and safe from the elements. But with something so important, how do you know what roof type is best for your home? It can be incredibly challenging to choose from, but here are a few of the main types or roofs and some information on them to help you make the best decision for your family!

Copper roofs – Copper roofs offer a truly unique and eye-catching experience! They are so much shinier than any other roofing option on the market! When copper is exposed to the elements it results in patina which results in a unique greenish hue that will make your house look older and more classic. This process can be stopped at any time with a proper protective layer on the copper, so your copper roof can be as shiny or as greenish as you’d like!

Slate roofs – Slate has been around for centuries! It is super popular on churches and homes! Slate is long lasting and resistant to any type of climate. This is a very common option throughout the area and it is relatively cheap and very long lasting!

 

Concrete and clay tile roofs – Tile is a fantastic option for any roof. Tile roofs last from 50-70 years and can handle a ton of snow! Not even hail will damage your tile roof. Concrete or clay are both great options depending on where you live. Around our area, concrete is way more popular, but it is one of the heavier and a bit more expensive options.

It is hard to go wrong with any type of roofing option! The main thing to focus on is making sure the roof fits your budget and works well with your home and the weather you have. For all your roofing needs, contact VR Roofing today!
