Among the Home Depot Buying Guide Series videos are “Types of Roofing.” It offers pointers on things to consider and the types of roofing options for those considering a residential roof installation.
The video lists five issues to consider: ensuring your home design and framing will support the roofing’s weight, the appropriateness of the roofing for your climate, and how the installation cost and durability match your budget.
In addition, safety should influence whether you or a professional install the roofing, and the roofing color should fit your home.
Those five issues should drive your choice of roofing type. Your choice could include one of the three types of shingles: asphalt, 3-tab, and architectural. These popular options vary in appearance, durability, and other factors. Meanwhile, clay & concrete, slate, metal, and wood roofing can be the right choice based on your home style, location, eco-friendliness, and maintenance requirements.
Home Depot’s “Types of Roofing” video outlines the key things to consider when choosing a roofing type. It is a must-see video for those thinking about residential roof installation.
