Here’s a closer look at some of the most popular roofing materials:
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are the most popular roofing material in North America due to their affordability, durability, and variety of styles and colors. They are relatively easy to install and maintain, making them a cost-effective option for many homeowners. There are two main types of asphalt shingles: three-tab shingles and architectural shingles.
- Three-Tab Shingles: The most basic and affordable type of asphalt shingle. They have a flat, uniform appearance and are typically warranted for 20-30 years.
- Architectural Shingles: Also known as dimensional or laminated shingles, these shingles are thicker and more durable than three-tab shingles. They have a more textured and visually appealing appearance and are typically warranted for 30-50 years.
Asphalt shingles are a good choice for homeowners who are looking for an affordable and reliable roofing material that is available in a wide range of colors and styles.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is a durable and long-lasting option that offers excellent resistance to fire, wind, and hail. It is also energy-efficient, reflecting sunlight and reducing cooling costs. Metal roofs can last for 50 years or more, making them a long-term investment.
There are several types of metal roofing, including:
- Standing Seam Metal Roofing: A popular choice for residential and commercial buildings. It features interlocking panels that create a watertight seal and a clean, modern look.
- Metal Shingles: Mimic the appearance of traditional shingles but offer the durability and longevity of metal.
- Corrugated Metal Roofing: A more affordable option that is often used for agricultural and industrial buildings.
Metal roofing is a good choice for homeowners who are looking for a durable, long-lasting, and energy-efficient roofing material.
Tile Roofing
Tile roofing is a classic and elegant option that provides excellent insulation and a long lifespan. It is fire-resistant, durable, and can last for 100 years or more. Tile roofs are available in a variety of styles and colors, including clay tile and concrete tile.
- Clay Tile: A traditional roofing material that has been used for centuries. It is durable, fire-resistant, and provides excellent insulation.
- Concrete Tile: A more affordable alternative to clay tile. It is also durable, fire-resistant, and available in a wide range of colors and styles.
Tile roofing is a good choice for homeowners who are looking for a durable, long-lasting, and aesthetically pleasing roofing material.
Wood Shingles and Shakes
Wood shingles and shakes are a natural and aesthetically pleasing option that requires regular maintenance. They are made from cedar, redwood, or other types of wood and offer a unique and rustic look. Wood roofs require regular treatment to prevent rot, decay, and fire.
- Wood Shingles: Sawn on both sides for a smooth, uniform appearance.
- Wood Shakes: Hand-split for a more rustic and textured appearance.
Wood roofing is a good choice for homeowners who are looking for a natural and aesthetically pleasing roofing material, but it is important to be aware of the maintenance requirements.
Flat Roofing Systems
Flat roofing systems are typically used on commercial buildings and homes with flat or low-sloped roofs. There are several types of flat roofing systems, including TPO, EPDM, and modified bitumen.
- TPO (Thermoplastic Olefin): A single-ply roofing membrane that is durable, energy-efficient, and resistant to chemicals and UV radiation.
- EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer): A synthetic rubber roofing membrane that is durable, flexible, and resistant to weathering.
- Modified Bitumen: A multi-layered roofing system that is made from asphalt and reinforced with fiberglass or polyester.
Choosing the right roofing material depends on your specific needs and budget. Our team can help you evaluate the pros and cons of each material and select the best option for your property.
The Importance of Proper Roof Installation
Even the highest-quality roofing materials will fail if they are not installed properly. Proper roof installation is crucial for ensuring the longevity and performance of your roof. A poorly installed roof can lead to leaks, water damage, and premature failure.
Here are some of the key aspects of proper roof installation:
- Proper Underlayment: Underlayment is a layer of material that is installed between the roof decking and the roofing material. It provides an extra layer of protection against water damage.
- Proper Flashing: Flashing is a thin, waterproof material that is installed around chimneys, vents, and other roof penetrations to prevent water intrusion.
- Proper Ventilation: Proper roof ventilation is essential for preventing moisture buildup and extending the lifespan of your roof.
- Proper Fastening: Roofing materials must be properly fastened to the roof decking to prevent them from being blown off by high winds.
- Following Manufacturer Specifications: It is essential to follow the manufacturer’s specifications for installation to ensure that the roofing material is installed correctly and will perform as intended.
At Aurora Roofer, we have a team of experienced and certified roofing professionals who are committed to providing top-notch installation services. We use only the highest-grade materials and employ proven techniques to ensure that your roof is installed properly and will last for years to come. We understand the importance of proper roof installation and take pride in our meticulous attention to detail.

Before starting any roofing project, it’s essential to understand the local building codes and regulations in Aurora. Depending on the scope of your project, you may need to obtain a building permit.
