5 REASONS TO CHOOSE SHINGLES FOR YOUR ROOF
2

• For the majority of homeowners throughout the US
  and beyond, shingles are a popular choice as a
  roofing material, and when you read the following
  5 facts, its easy to see why
• 1.Roofing shingles are made of high-quality
  materials
• While shingles can be made from a variety of
  materials, asphalt is the most widely used, and
  is comprised of cementitious fillers and mineral
  fiber. Fiberglass shingles are also available (at
  a much higher cost), as are shingles made from
  granules, which come in a wide variety of colors.

• 2.Shingles are more than aesthetically pleasing
• The roof is one of the most prominent features of
  any home, and while this means that you want it
  to look as attractive as possible and in keeping
  with other homes in the neighborhood or area, it
  also means that it should perform its function
  well. The roofs primary role is of course to
  protect the structure beneath it, and a pretty
  roof is all well and good, but if it doesnt keep
  your home safe and dry, its virtually useless.
• Shingles help to create a watertight seal that
  protects your roof from harsh weather conditions,
  such as rain, sleet and snow, and from the
  effects of extreme temperatures and environmental
  damage, in turn, keeping your home protected and
  energy efficient.

• 3.Roofing shingles come in a variety of colors
  and styles
• With so many color and design options to choose
  from when it comes to shingles, youre guaranteed
  to find the right kind to match your home, or
  contrast it, depending upon the effect youre
  looking to achieve.
• Varying in texture, shape and color, you can
  maximize the impact your shingle roof has on your
  home overall, which can be a real bonus when you
  need to sell it.

• 4.They have an excellent fire rating
• House fires are a frightening but relatively
  common occurrence, but if your roof is made from
  shingles, their high fire rating will help
  protect it, and your home, from the dangers of
  extreme temperatures.
• 5.Roofing shingles can keep sound in, and noise
  pollution out
• With fantastic sound reducing capabilities, you
  can help protect your home and its inhabitants
  from the nuisance of external noise pollution,
  while keeping your own noisy activities from
  creating a disturbance with your neighbors! Its
  important to note, however, that the
  soundproofing qualities vary depending upon the
  type of shingles you choose, and asphalt shingles
  are far more effective at reducing external sound
  than other varieties.

• Whatever type of roofing material you decide
  upon, make sure that you come to your decision
  only after extensive talks with a professional
  roofing contractor, who will be able to give you
  the most up-to-date information regarding cost,
  quality and life expectancy of your chosen
  material.
