Traditional shingles are made of wood – a roofing material with multiple advantages, which has been used over time and is still popular today. Wood shingles have that particular beauty and authenticity that only natural materials have, being an eco-conscious choice. It provides natural insulation, as well as very good protection against the elements, for about 30 years.

Another type of shingles you can consider for your home is asphalt shingles. This material is still the most popular in the US, not because it is the best, but because it offers the best value for the very affordable price you pay.

However, its popularity is more and more challenged by another type of shingles – which is arguably one of the best you can currently get for your home: metal shingles.

Metal shingles attract attention through their special aspect, which connects with the traditional wooden shingles, due to the use of innovative technological solutions that reproduce the structure of the wood, creating an exclusive visual effect on the roof. The steel used for the production of metal shingles is protected with a mixture of zinc and magnesium, creating a product with a high durability (50 years), with high resistance to corrosion, abrasion, dirt and UV rays.  For all your roofing needs, it’s best to check with a roof company Southlake offers to see what products they recommend for your area.
