by Legend Roofs OK Roofing contractor Norman OK

The type of roof you choose can change your home’s appearance. For this reason, you should consider the architectural style of your home before investing in a new roof. Keep in mind that various roofing types match with specific home styles. Here are some roofing types and matching home styles which may help you decide which option is best for you.

Metal Roofing: Contemporary, Cottage, or Colonial homes – In the past, metal roofs were used for barns and agricultural structures. Now metal roofs are being used on many homes because they are durable and energy efficient. Metal roofs come in a variety of design and color options.

Asphalt Shingles: All Architectural Styles – Debatably the most popular roofing material because it comes in so many colors, shapes, sizes, giving it the versatility to easily match any architectural style. It is a great choice for its durability in cold winters and hot summers.

Tile: Spanish, French, Italian, or Mediterranean style homes – Slate, clay and concrete tiles are often used in these beautiful home styles. They are aesthetically pleasing and protect against hot climates. Tile roofs are resistant to damage from salty air and shed water easily making them ideal for climates having large amount of rainfall in a short period of time. These qualities give tile roofs the ability to protect homes against harsh conditions.
