Handsome, Durable Shingle Roofing: Energy Saving and Eco-Friendly Options

When you think shingle roofing, forget the image of the shingle roofs you saw as a child.  Sure, those are still available, but shingle roofing has evolved in really significant ways.  A new standard in many of Central Texas’ neighborhoods both for new roofs and for re-roofs are architectural grade shingles, also known as laminate or dimensional shingles.  They provide Grade A fire protection, an enhanced look, longer wear, and greater protection against blow-offs than the composition roofs of years past.  Beyond this, however, is the designer shingle Upper-end home with roof by RoofCrafters roofing company, Austinroofing market.  Designer shingles allow you to create a truly custom look for your home or business.  Many manufacturers offer interesting shapes, a wide array of colors, and textures that can even mimic slate or tile roofs.  There are shingles available to provide the crowning touch to nearly every architectural style.

Weights and warranties for shingle roofs vary.  While shingle roofs typically carry 20-50 year warranties; some manufacturers offer Limited Lifetime warranties on their heaviest products.  Because shingle roofs are more vulnerable to storm damage—and this can compromise the lifetime of the roof—the most environmentally friendly choices are the heavier and more durable roofing options.  Beautiful and complex shingle roof, used widely for Round Rock and Georgetown roofing GAF-Elk has invested a great deal of time and resources into a system that, when installed, can be relied upon in the harshest of storms.  Ask your Project Planner for the details on this three-part weather stopper system and other eco-friendly options, including Cool Colors and Impact Resistant shingles.

Certified Roofing Installation by Professional Austin Roofers
For Georgetown roofing, Austin roofing, experienced RoofCrafters Austin roofers do it right Installation on any roof is a determining factor for how it looks, as well as how it’s going to perform in storm conditions and over time.  Unfortunately, it is shingle roofing in particular that draws to it less skilled roofers and roofing companies.  To protect the integrity of their products and reputation, shingle manufacturers are setting rigid standards for the installation of their products.  GAF-Elk is truly leading the way in this regard.  RoofCrafters is a top certified contractor, GAF-Elk Master Elite, for the largest shingle manufacturer in the country.  Only 2% of roofing companies qualify for this.  As a result of our certification we’re able to offer extended warranties (i.e. wind, No Dollar Limits, labor and/or workmanship warranties). Read more about how GAF-Elk has taken the worry out of choosing a contractor.

In addition to the quality of the roofing installation, ventilation also plays a key role in the life of your new roof and must be done to shingle manufacturer specifications so as not to void the manufacturer’s warranty.  Our Project Planners are knowledgeable.  Let them help you select a roofing and ventilation combination that works well for you.
