Criteria for choosing the right roofing system

The roof is the most vital part of a house, exposed to maximum wear and tear and extreme weather conditions. The cornerstones of an ideal roofing system are durability and cost, followed by the overall look and feel.

According to Michelle Chouinard, Owner at Chouinard Brothers, “A durable and robust roofing system that suits the design of the house, is visually appealing and at the same time easy on pockets might seem to be a utopian situation. But at Chouinard, we have been making it a reality since our inception in 1972, with thousands of satisfied customers vouching for our reliability and commitment to quality.

Types of roofing systems

Steep slope roofs can be best supported with Asphalt shingles that are available in two variants – organic and fiberglass, the former with a wooden base and the latter of fiberglass, both having coatings of asphalt and mineral granules. Asphalt shingles have an edge over their organic counterpart in terms of fire resistance capabilities.

Metal panels are also ideal for slanting roofs. They are considerably lightweight and are known for their endurance power against unfavorable weather conditions.

Tiles available in an array of colors and designs can give a hardy finish to roofs. But since the material is cumbersome, it is crucial to first check whether the building can withstand its weight.

Slate, regarded as the most enduring and everlasting roofing material of the lot also comes in diverse colors and ratings owing to its lineage. But it is comparatively more expensive and calls for a skilled and specialized treatment.

There are many artificial roofing materials that replicate the conventional roof systems but their characteristics are not always similar to the original. So, a bit of caution needs to be exercised before deciding to use them.
