  1. ROOFING FACTS That May Surprise You

  2. ALL ROOFS ARE NOT MADE FOR ALL CLIMATES Roofs and roofing material are not one size fits all! The roof on a home in a cold, rainy climate like Seattle will require extremely different materials than a home in a hot, dry climate such as Phoenix. Your local roofing companies will be able to help you choose the best roof for your property.

  3. FLAT ROOFS ARE NOT ACTUALLY FLAT Truly flat roofing would be a disaster for drainage! Flat commercial and multi- family roofing actually has a slight ¼ inch slant to allow proper drainage to occur.

  4. YOUR ROOF CAN BE ENERGY EFFICIENT There are many energy efficient and eco- friendly roofing options that can help the environment and lower your monthly energy bills. Talk to your local roofing companies to see what options might work for your property.

  5. A ROOF IS MORE THAN SHINGLES Many people think that a roof is simply comprised of shingles and wood, but that is far from the truth. Roofing is actually a complex system designed to keep your home and family safe for many years to come.

  6. YOUR FAULTY ROOF COULD RUIN YOUR HOME SALE If you are thinking about selling your home, you should reach out to professional roofing companies to inspect your roof before putting your home on the market. A bad roof can completely derail the sale, so it is well- advised to make any repairs before going to market.

  7. BUT A NEW ROOF CAN ACTUALLY INCREASE YOUR PROFIT While an old or damaged roof can hurt the sale of your property, a new roof is a great selling point for your home. Potential buyers love seeing a new roof on a home because they know that means they won’t have to spend the time or money on a new roof in the near future.

  8. SOME OF THE OLDEST ROOFING MATERIALS ARE STILL USED TODAY Our ancestors knew what they were doing when it came to their roofs! Clay tiles have been dated back to 10,000 B.C., making them one of the oldest materials still in use by roofing companies today. Stone and thatch roofs are also still used in parts of the world today and those can be traced approximately 8,000 years back.

  9. ASPHALT SHINGLES ARE MOST COMMON IN THE U.S. Despite only having been invented approximately 100 years ago, asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in the United States. Over 75% of homes here have asphalt shingles on their roofs.
