30 Year Shingles

Opting for 30-year shingles over 20-year shingles presents a strategic choice for homeowners seeking enhanced durability and long-term value. The extended lifespan of 30-year shingles not only offers an additional decade over the 20-year shingles but also provides additional protection against weathering, UV exposure, wear, but also potentially reduces long-term maintenance costs. Investing in these higher-grade shingles ensures prolonged resilience, fortifying your roof against harsh elements and providing extended peace of mind, making them a practical choice for safeguarding your home for years to come.

  • What are 30-year shingles?

    30-year shingles are asphalt roofing materials designed to withstand weathering, UV exposure, and wear for an estimated 30-year lifespan. These shingles offer enhanced durability compared to standard 20-year shingles, providing longer-lasting protection for residential roofs.

  • How do 30-year shingles differ from 20-year shingles?

    The primary difference lies in their lifespan and durability. While both types are made of asphalt, 30-year shingles are engineered with additional layers or higher-quality materials, making them more resilient against weather elements and extending their expected lifespan compared to 20-year shingles.

  • Are 30-year shingles worth the investment?

    Yes, 30-year shingles are considered a worthwhile investment for homeowners seeking long-term durability and extended protection for their roofs. Although they might have a higher upfront cost compared to shorter-lived shingles, their extended lifespan often translates to fewer replacements and reduced maintenance expenses in the long run.

  • Do 30-year shingles come with warranties?

    Many manufacturers offer warranties for their 30-year shingles, ensuring coverage for a specified period against defects or premature failure. It's essential to review the warranty terms provided by the manufacturer or installer to understand the extent of coverage and any conditions that apply.

  • What are 50-year shingles, and how do they differ from standard shingles?

    50-year shingles, also known as lifetime or architectural shingles, are premium roofing materials designed to last longer than traditional asphalt shingles. They typically have a thicker construction, enhanced durability, and are engineered to withstand harsh weather conditions  that we see here in North Texas.

  • Do 50-year shingles really last for 50 years?

    While they are marketed as lasting 50 years or more, the actual lifespan can be influenced by factors like climate, maintenance, installation quality, and exposure to elements. However, they generally outlast standard shingles by a significant margin.

  • Are 50-year shingles more expensive than regular shingles?

    Yes, 50-year shingles typically have a higher upfront cost compared to standard shingles due to their superior quality and longer lifespan. However, considering their longevity and potential savings on future replacements, they are often seen as a cost-effective investment.

  • Can 50-year shingles be installed on any roof?

    In most cases, yes. They are versatile and suitable for various roof types and pitches. However, it's crucial to have a professional assessment to ensure compatibility and proper installation.

Metal Roof

Opting for a metal roof over traditional shingles offers several advantages that cater to different homeowner preferences and needs. Metal roofs are highly durable and can outlast shingles by decades, providing exceptional longevity. They are known for their resilience against harsh weather conditions, including resistance to fire, wind, and snow. Additionally, metal roofs require minimal maintenance and are more environmentally friendly due to their recyclability and energy efficiency, often reflecting sunlight and reducing cooling costs. For homeowners seeking a long-term investment with superior durability, energy efficiency, and reduced maintenance, a metal roof stands as an appealing choice.

A metal roof may qualify you for a discount on your homeowners insurance.  Before making a decision call your insurance company.

  • How long do metal roofs typically last?

    Metal roofs are renowned for their durability and longevity, often lasting 40 to 70 years or more with proper maintenance. Their lifespan far exceeds traditional asphalt shingle roofs, making them a durable and long-term roofing option.

  • Are metal roofs noisy during rain or hail storms?

    Contrary to common belief, properly installed metal roofs are not significantly louder during rain or hail storms than other roofing materials. Adequate insulation and attic space typically dampen the sound, making them comparable to other roofing types.

  • Are metal roofs prone to rusting?

    Most modern metal roofing materials are coated with protective layers, such as zinc, aluminum, or paint, preventing rust and corrosion. This coating ensures the roof's longevity and resistance to rust, especially in varying weather conditions.

  • Are metal roofs more expensive than traditional shingle roofs?

    Initially, the cost of installing a metal roof tends to be higher than that of traditional shingle roofs. However, their extended lifespan, durability, and lower maintenance needs often make them cost-effective in the long run, as they require fewer replacements and repairs over time.

  • Do gutters require regular maintenance?
