GAF Solar Shingles Installer in Denver Discusses the 3 Reasons Why Composite Shingle Roofs Are the Future

Roper Roofing & Solar, a roofing contractor serving Denver Colorado and neighboring areas that is an installer of GAF solar shingles and more, has recently released a blog post that provides 3 reasons why composite shingle roofs are the future. Asphalt shingles have been the long-time favorite of many homeowners nationwide because of their affordability, provision of that classical residential look, and strong resistance to rain, hail, and snowstorms. However, the article wants to point out that composite shingle roofs will become the favorite in the future because they are becoming more affordable, durable, and dependable during the last few years.

Composite roofing shingles are made from wood fibers, fiberglass, felt, and other materials to provide the most durable roofing material in the market. A key advantage of composite shingles is that they can be made to look like a particular roofing material, such as asphalt shingles, terracotta tiles, clay tiles, slate tiles, cedar wood shakes, and more. Brent Roper, owner and president of Roper Roofing, says, “Homeowners willing to invest in high-quality roofs should consider composite shingles, especially if metal roofs aren't up to their needs. Composite shingles have a 50-year lifespan that goes on par with metal roofing materials.”

In the above-mentioned Roper Roofing & Solar blog post, the three main reasons why composite shingle roofs are the future are durability, high-quality manufacturers, and affordability. Composite shingles are made from wood fibers, fiberglass, cedar, vinyl, and other materials to attain their current durability level. They're more expensive than traditional asphalt shingles but they are capable of withstanding hail and rainstorms and even the coldest winters. For instance, composite roofing shingles from DaVinci Roofscapes ensure decades of efficiency and the best property value upgrade. High-quality providers of composite shingles, such as DaVinci Roofscapes, have been improving the technology, resulting in improved durability and excellent imitations of the appearance of slate and cedar shake roofing and more. And composite roofs are considered to be an affordable roofing alternative because while their initial costs are relatively high, these are adequately offset by their long-term durability and dependability.

There are actually 8 benefits of using composite roofing materials. First of all, the durability of the composite roofing materials makes them an ideal choice because roof replacement is typically a costly process. The use of a durable and long-lasting roofing material means there will be less need for roof repair and/or roof replacement through the years, which means fewer expenses in the long run. The second benefit is wind resistance because composite roofs have been noted to withstand strong winds of up to 110 mph. Third, composite roofing materials are fire-resistant with composite roofs achieving a Class A fire rating. Fourth is impact resistance, which means composite roofs can withstand hail and other materials. Fifth, they have a stronger fade resistance compared to natural materials. Sixth, they are available with strong warranties. Seventh, they are most cost-effective compared to natural materials. And finally, they are eco-friendly because they are often made from recycled materials and they are usually recyclable after their useful life is over.
