| Roofing for your Home
A roof is designed to keep water out of
your house, but your roof has to endure a
lot of punishment from the elements and will
not last forever. Sun causes many roofing
materials to deteriorate (particularly on
the south and west sides that get the most
sun exposure), while wind, trees, and ice
can cause physical damage. Once damaged,
roofs only get worse: curled or missing shingles
or other damage to the roof's surface allows
water to get beneath the roof and start damage
to the roof from within, not to mention damaging
your ceilings and walls.
There are a number of choices in roofing
material: asphalt, wood, tile, slate, rubber,
metal, and composites. Each has its own cost,
appearance, and durability. Click on the
