When looking to replace your roof, or perhaps get a roof on a new building, you might ask yourself why are there so many options? And which type of roofing am I supposed to choose? Here at Race City Roofing, we have the answers for you. Not only do we offer several different types of roofing, repair, and replacement services, but we are here to help you understand which roof you need.
If you are looking for roofing for a commercial building, you might have noticed that flat roofs are very common. Flat roofs are easier to install, are cost effective for businesses, are made to support heavy HVAC units, and are designed to handle heavy water flow and debris buildup. While this may sound like a great option for all buildings, flat roofs are not recommended for residential use.
If you are looking for residential roofing options, the most common options are shingle or metal roofing. The primary difference between these two roofing options is the overall look and aesthetic it brings to your home. Shingle roofs can mimic many styles and looks. They usually have a wide range of color palettes, can be scalloped, or look like tile, wood, or slate. Metal roofing can also have several different looks as it can come in aluminum, copper, zinc, and even galvanized metals. Metal roofs do tend to be more durable but come with a heftier price. Shingle roofs tend to be cheaper from the start but do require more frequent replacement than metal roofs.
Additionally, we don’t want to forget to mention elaborate roof designs. These are custom roofing designs, often putting together several different roofing styles to create a specific and unique look. Whether you have an elaborate floor plan and wish to tailor the roof to best meet your style, or if you would just like something unique that suits your dream home vision, we can accommodate and create a custom roofing design just for you.
