We hope you find them helpful!<\/p>\n The first blog article is about the #1 most popular roof material \u2013 asphalt. Asphalt is great in many ways because it\u2019s inexpensive, they\u2019re widely available, and they come in hundreds of styles to suit any home and personal preferences. Read more about asphalt here<\/a><\/u>.<\/p>\n Clay and concrete tiles are becoming more and more popular, too \u2013 especially because they last for many decades and have real distinctive style. They also require very little maintenance! Find out more about clay and concrete tiles here<\/a><\/u>.<\/p>\n Metal is another highly desirable roof material because they handle extreme weather well, are recyclable, and they\u2019re available in many interesting styles. Check out the blog article about metal roofs here<\/a><\/u>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Slate is a popular roof material in the U.S. \u2013 perhaps primarily because of its aesthetic value. Slate roofs are beautiful and striking \u2013 they come in shades of black, green, grey, red, and purple. Colonial, European, and French Chateau-style homes look excellent with slate roofs. Slate is incredibly durable and fire-resistant. It\u2019s also eco-friendly! Slate roofs are sustainable and can be recycled. If you get a slate roof, you can count on it to last at least 50 years \u2013 some even last 100+ years. You won\u2019t have to deal with many maintenance costs \u2013 and there won\u2019t be any replacement costs.<\/p>\n As always, our goal is to help you make the best decision possible when it comes time to choose a roof material. In that spirit, here are why some people decide against slate. This roof material is expensive when compared to asphalt and various other roof materials.
