Common Roofing Systems in Florida
Asphalt Roof Shingles are one of the most common types of roofing systems to be used today. Asphalt is used primarily on residential homes. Just as advances have been made in all areas of life they have made their way into the roofing market and the quality of asphalt has increased as a result. There is a very good reason these shingles are called asphalt and yes its because they are indeed made from asphalt. These types of roofing systems are also referred to as composition roofs. Some of the benefits of asphalt roofs are as follows. They are usually the most cost effective roofing material compared to metal roofs, clay roofs or tile roofs. They tend to last as much as 20-30 years. Another good aspect of asphalt roofs is they are easy to install. Asphalt shingles are made in several different colors and sizes. Certain asphalt shingles can mimic the look of other more expensive materials like tile or wood shake. Asphalt shingles do really well in Florida climates.

Tile Roof Systems are extremely durable, save energy, and protect your roof really well. As you know tile roofs are beautiful which is why most homeowners choose tile. Tile roofs have been around a very long time compared to asphalt giving it a great track record. Tile comes in an array of wonderful colors, sizes and shapes. Did you know tile can be flat as well as round which makes it very versatile. Tile tends to fade faster then asphalt because it is a more natural material. Tile is steadily becoming the roofing material of choice for homes due to the fact that it is easy to maintain and very durable. Tile is great at withstanding severe weather conditions, it has been proven to sustain winds up to 150 miles an hour. Tile may be more expensive upfront but if you look at how long it last you save in the long run. When normal conditions are present tile is one of the easiest roofing materials to maintain. As other roofing materials might need to be cleaned repeatedly, painted, coated or sealed tile does not need the same attention.
