Consider Asphalt Shingles for Your New Roof

Posted October 13, 2017

Benefits of Asphalt Shingles for Your Home

When selecting a residential roofing system for your home in Colorado, you have several options including metal, tile, slate, wood, and asphalt. While not as long-lasting as some of the more high-end roofing materials such as cedar shakes, slate, clay tiles, or metal, asphalt shingles can provide sufficient aesthetic appeal and an adequate protection at only a fraction of the cost of other roofing systems.

Whether it is the wide variety of colors, styles, and textures you are looking for, or durability and performance, asphalt shingles deliver more advantages to your home.
