Did you know that asphalt is the most popular roof material in the US? Many homes and commercial buildings in every state of the USA have asphalt roofs<\/a>. But you may be wondering, why is asphalt such a popular roofing material? Why do so many people choose it for their residential and commercial properties? In this informative blog from Guardian Roofs<\/span>, we\u2019ll be happy to explain the pros and cons of asphalt and help you decide whether it would be the best choice for your particular property. Read on to find out more about asphalt roofs.<\/p>\n

Economical<\/h2>\n

Asphalt is a popular choice for many Americans because it is the least expensive roofing material. No matter how you swing it, getting a new roof is expensive. So many people experience real sticker shock when deciding between roof materials, so they naturally gravitate towards asphalt. Asphalt shingles effectively protect your home from the elements without costing an arm and a leg.<\/p>\n

Lasts pretty long<\/h2>\n

Asphalt roofs will last about 10-20 years on average. That\u2019s a pretty long time! Most people sell their homes or commercial properties within that time frame, so they don\u2019t see a need to invest in a roof that\u2019ll last much longer than that, like concrete or slate tiles. Asphalt roof don\u2019t usually require much in the way of maintenance. If shingles do become torn or blow off over the years, they\u2019re easily replaced without much cost or hassle.<\/p>\n

Looks great<\/h2>\n

There are many styles of asphalt shingles to choose from to give your home maximum aesthetic appeal. Some styles even mimic the look of concrete or slate tiles so convincingly that most people can\u2019t tell the difference! Many people reason that there\u2019s no need to pay so much for fancy roof materials when asphalt shingles provide the ideal look they\u2019d like to have.<\/p>\n

Disadvantages<\/h2>\n

There are, however, some disadvantages of asphalt that people should be aware of before choosing it for their roofs. As previously mentioned, asphalt lasts for about 10-20 years, but if you\u2019re planning on passing your home down for generations, a more durable roof material may be the wiser choice. Additionally, asphalt can\u2019t be recycled, so some people are turned off by the idea that they\u2019re contributing to landfill waste.<\/p>\n
