Mixing asphalt, fiberglass and mineral composite can create a range of colors such as gray, browns, reds, greens, or blues. They will lose their color over time as a result of sunlight exposure. The quality and color will differ depending on whether you choose architectural shingles or three-tab shingles.
Individual tiles made from architectural asphalt shingles have a thickness of three-tab and are designed to give your roof a durable layer. Architectural shingles can be more expensive because of their higher quality and longer installation. They are also more durable and last longer than other shingles, which can be up to 30 or more years.
Three-tab asphaltshingles look like three shingles, but are thinner. This allows for quicker installation, and creates a brick-like uniform pattern. These are less susceptible to high winds, and they last up to 7 to 15 year. These are typically the most affordable option for roofing.
Metal roofing is a trendy choice but has been around since at least the 1800s. Metal sheets and metal shingles remain popular choices today. Materials like aluminum or zinc are easy to transport and maintain, they're beautiful and affordable, and can be used to make beautiful shingles and metal sheets. They can last as long as 80 years and are priced between $6 and $12 per square foot depending upon the design and the material.
There are two kinds of sheets: shingles or sheets. These are usually connected with a "standing seam". You can also get the metal pre-treated and sealed with sealants. Metal roofing can be made in a range of colors. You can also paint certain styles.
Standing seam metal roofing requires care in installation. To prevent panels from rippling, it is important to maintain clean vertical lines. Metal sheets such as this are usually more expensive. Prices range from $9 to $14 per square foot.
Metal shingles mimic the appearance of slate, asphalt and wood roofing. They cost about $1-$3 per sq. foot less than standing seams.
