Roofs, an essential element of every building; providing practical coverage for your home, and giving you the opportunity to make yours stand out from the crowd, too. With so many different roof trends to choose from, the following list might help you decide which type of roof would best suit your home: Metal roofs A durable material, metal is growing in popularity among roof shoppers, and with its ability to reflect the sun’s rays in the summer months, and insulate your home during the colder months, it’s easy to see why.
Light colored roofs It’s easy to create a less harsh view of your home with a lighter colored roof, and it can help keep your home cooler in the summer months by reflecting the suns rays instead of absorbing them. Solar roofs With some states offering special discounts to homeowners who choose to install solar panels on their roofs, this option is becoming more and more accessible, and more and more popular, too.
Synthetic roofs Synthetic roofing materials made from durable polyurethane are molded from real wood shakes, and as such, have an authentic, unique appearance. Not only that, but they are rot and split resistant and won’t warp or lose their color. Flat roofs Many modern homeowners are now opting for flat roofs over traditional angled or sloped ones, which support solar panels better, and can even be used to create a rooftop deck or garden.
Cool roofs Reflecting the suns rays to keep homes cooler, and prolonging the lifespan of the roof, cool roofing comes in two forms: light tiles and reflective paint. Both work in the same way and have a number of benefits. Silicone roof coatings If you want to upgrade your roof without replacing it, then silicone roof coatings could be the ideal solution. Making it possible to add a new coat to an existing roof, silicone roof coatings allow you to change the roofs color and add durability. With just two coats, you can provide your roof with an impermeable, leakproof membrane that won’t deteriorate or crack when exposed to the sun.
Green roofs Covered with soil and vegetation, green roofs are living roofs, and can add a truly unique and environmentally friendly aspect to a home. Green roofs can help to reduce acid rain and lower energy bills by adding an element of insulation to a home. To discuss these roofing trends and many others in detail, schedule a consultation with a reputable roofing company, and together, you can determine what type of roof will best suit your home, and your needs, both from a practical and aesthetic standpoint.
