If your roof is coming to the end of its life, or has suffered serious storm damage, it needs replaced, which means you have some decisions ahead. Roofing comes in such a wide array of materials, textures, and colors that the choice can seem overwhelming at first. This is why you need to consult with a roofing professional and let them explain to you the pros and cons of the various choices. Asphalt, shake, tile, slate, and Metal Roof in Naples, FL are the most basic materials to choose from when shopping for a new roof. When making your selection, you’ll want to keep in mind not only cost, but what each roof can add to the overall curb appeal of your home.
While you’re considering costs, keep in mind the initial expense of installation, and the long-term cost of maintenance, as well as potential savings that can come with some roofing materials due to their energy efficiency. A roof that may be relatively inexpensive to install may cost more in heating and cooling in the long run. Ease of installation is another element to consider; some roofing material requires the complete removal of the original roof before it can be installed. This adds to the time and expense of the project, and leaves you with containers of roofing material that has to be disposed of properly. Ask about the longevity of the roofing materials you’re considering, too. The average roof lasts around 20 years, but of course, our climate, with heavy rains, high winds, heat, and humidity cuts into that time frame considerably.
A Metal Roof in Naples, FL may be your best choice. It is very energy efficient, reflecting a large amount of heat, and retaining your home’s internal temperature. It can be installed over existing roofing in most cases. Metal roofs require almost no maintenance. Along with being made from recycled materials, a metal roof can be recycled again when it needs to be replaced. Which won’t be soon; metal roofs are lasting up to 60 years these days, due in part to their ability to resist heavy rain, wind and even hail damage.
