Wood or asphalt – composition shingles are the most common roofing material used in residential and other “steep” and “sloped” applications worldwide. Shingles are made of carrier sheets of organic or fiberglass material, coated with asphalt, and granulated in a wide array of colors. Some asphalt shingles are made to look like wood shingles. Many shingle manufacturers have products that meet new code requirements for reflectivity. Some shingles do not meet these new standards yet. Check with your professional roofing contractor for specifics information about city, county and national code requirements for roofing.

If you are looking for durability and ease of maintenance, nothing performs like a metal roof. Lightweight, corrosion-resistant and dozens of colors, coatings and profiles to choose from, metal affords architects and owners the freedom of design not always available with other materials. Metal roofing systems are manufactured to perform in the harsh south Florida elements, while still adding value and beauty to your home. Besides being beautiful and long-lasting, metal has the added benefit of being highly recyclable – offering an environmentally friendly solution to your home’s exterior.

Wood shingles typically are made of cedar and are used mainly on higher slopes – from 4″ -in- 12″ upward. They are very aesthetically pleasing with a rich look. If properly applied, wood shingles have a long life expectancy.

Wood Shakes

Split wood shakes are aesthetically pleasing and long-lasting. Shakes, due to their rough look, are desired in certain architecture concepts. They also are more difficult to install than typical shingle applications.
