Homeowners often find it difficult to choose the roofing material for their home duirng a roof replacement project. A material you should seriously consider investing in are asphalt shingles.
Most roofing systems have asphalt shingles on them for two reasons: they’re inexpensive and they get the job done. But in addition to those two main benefits, here are four more reasons why they’re the perfect choice for your home.
Long-Lasting
Asphalt shingles can last around 15 years to 30 years, depending on the weather condition of your location. Some asphalt shingles are heavy and require additional bracing for installation, but the average asphalt shingle is lightweight but durable enough to withstand moderate to strong, wind-driven rain.
Easy Installation
Time is a factor homeowners consider when undergoing roofing projects. And asphalt shingles are simple to install with a limited time frame. It makes room for homeowners to invest their time in other home improvement projects.
This also means there’s a reduction in labor costs that most roofing projects demand.
Highly Sustainable
Going for the zero waste lifestyle is a tough commitment, but asphalt shingles help you reduce roof material waste because they are recyclable. This is possible because asphalt shingles are one of the most basic components of materials for construction. You can research ways to repurpose shingles for yourself or donate them to environmental organizations for recycling.
Adaptable
Not all roofing materials will agree with your choice of home exterior, but asphalt shingles are more adept in complementing a wide range of home styles like contemporary, modern, classical and even Victorian style houses.
