What is Residential Roofing?
Residential Roofing refers to roofing systems and materials that are used for typical single-family homes. This also includes garages, home workshops, and other outbuildings that may be found around someone’s home. It doesn’t just include the exterior-facing materials. Also included are the underlayments, roofing support structure, and ventilation items, as well as other possible residential roofing products.
What Are The Most Popular Residential Roofing Materials?
When choosing from among the many types of roofing materials, you should first recognize that all roofing materials are not equal.
Modern roofing materials are different weights and sizes depending on the type of roof material, sometimes requiring additional or special framing to be able to accommodate them.
Second, colors and styles of roofing differ with the type of material chosen. In addition, the vast numbers of colors and styles can be overwhelming.
Lastly, the costs and life span of each of the materials will vary…sometimes by a lot. With all of the different residential roofing types available, you can rest assured that you will find the perfect choice for your home.
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt Shingles are the most common of the roofing material options and the most cost-effective. They are easy to install, meaning that your costs would be lower.
The first category of asphalt roofing shingles is strip shingles (which are also referred to as 3-tab shingles) which are the lightest and most cost-effective.
The second category is dimensional shingles (often called architectural shingles) that are heavier than strip shingles with added durability and lifetime.
The third category of asphalt shingles are luxury shingles which are the heaviest asphalt shingles and give the roof the appearance of wood shakes or slate, but with less cost and lower maintenance.
Asphalt shingles typically last 15-20 years, with some guaranteed up to 50 years.
Wood Shingles/Wood Shakes
Typically made of cedar, wood shingles/wood shakes are a centuries-old choice that have stood the test of time. And, like other shingles, they even come in different fire-ratings depending on your preference.
Wood shingles will last 25-40 years.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing installation is panels or sheets, or can be metal roofing shingles that resemble shakes, slate, and tile. Metal roofing comes in different choices of metal, such as aluminum, stainless steel, and copper. Metal roofing colors vary based on the style of panel chosen. You can upload a picture of your home on one of these visualizers to get an idea of which colors and styles would look best.

Tile Roofing
Tile Roofing is a very versatile choice. The tiles are generally made from terracotta, clay, or concrete. The variety of choices of colors, finishes, and styles allows you to select just the right tile for your home.
Tile Roofing lasts around 35-50 years.
Slate Roofing
Being a natural stone product, slate is typically darker colored and comes in many shades of grey and black, as well as a few other colors. Although it is an expensive choice of residential roofing materials, it has an enviable life span of 50 years or more. Some slate roofs last more than 100 years when properly maintained.
Synthetic Roofing
There are always new advances in roofing. Residential roofing companies can provide you with synthetic roofing that has the look of natural materials, such as slate or wood roofing, but that are made from plastic, rubber, or polymer materials. These options have a guaranteed lifespan of up to 50 years.
