Designer Roof Systems
Designer roof shingles offer various aesthetic and functional advantages over regular asphalt shingles.
• Metal shingles are highly durable and energy-efficient but come at a higher cost.
• Slate shingles, known for their longevity and classic appearance, are among the most expensive and heaviest, often requiring additional structural support.
• Synthetic shingles mimic the look of natural materials like slate or wood but are lighter and more affordable, providing a good balance between cost and durability.
• Tile shingles, often made of clay or concrete, are durable and fire-resistant but can be costly and heavy.
• Shake shingles, typically made from cedar, offer a rustic look and good insulation properties but are expensive and require more maintenance.
In terms of insurance, premium materials like slate and metal often lead to higher insurance costs due to their replacement value, while synthetic and asphalt shingles might offer more affordable coverage options.

Synthetic
Comprised of engineered polymers, such as plastic or rubber, synthetic roofs mimic the appearance of traditional materials like slate, wood shakes, or clay tiles, offering homeowners an array of aesthetic options without the associated maintenance or cost burdens.
Shake
Shake roofing, often crafted from natural cedar, stands out as an exceptional roofing material, prized for its unique blend of aesthetic appeal, natural insulating properties, and longevity. Cedar shakes possess inherent durability, with natural oils that resist decay, insects, and fungal growth, resulting in a roofing material that can withstand the test of time, often exceeding 30 years with proper maintenance.
Metal
One of the key advantages of metal roofing lies in its energy efficiency. The reflective properties of metal help deflect solar radiation, reducing heat absorption and cooling costs in warmer climates. Additionally, metal roofs often include coatings or finishes that enhance their reflective capabilities, contributing to energy savings and creating a more environmentally friendly option for homeowners.
