Accentuating Classic Homes With Asphalt Shingles

Your roof can make or break your home’s overall asthetic appeal, which makes choosing the right style just as important as the type of material you’ll be using. As far as roof replacement in homes is concerned, asphalt shingles are not particularly high-end, but they are not without merits. When it comes to contributing to your home’s overall aesthetic, this hardy staple of American homes can definitely hold up to its competitors.

Here are just a few ideas on how asphalt shingles can help your home look its best.

Designer Looks, Reasonable Prices

Classic American homes have a certain timeless quality to its beauty. Whether it’s the quiet elegance of a midcentury Victorian home or the rustic appeal of a modern Craftsman, both styles demand a few visual cues from the roof choices of the homeowner.

Modern innovations in the manufacture of asphalt shingles have allowed for a broader list of style choices available, all while maintaining the affordability of the material. Today, they can be used by home exterior remodeling companies in projects that would otherwise require costlier alternatives, all without having to put too much strain on their client’s budget.

Durability and Versatility

There’s a reason asphalt shingles have enjoyed almost a monopoly when it comes to roofing. Apart from the price, something can also be said for its durability. Many newer design models can withstand wind, impact, fire, rot and even insect damage. These levels of resistance used to be unheard of in its early days, but seem to be a given today.

Available color swatches from reputable asphalt shingle manufacturers have also allowed this roofing material to be much more versatile than most other roof types. Today, you can match your shingled roof’s color to complement the work of siding contractors in your home.
