We can bring shingle samples to your home, or if you would like to see how they look when installed, we have a display at our office in Louisville Kentucky. We can also provide you with addresses of completed home roofing projects in the style you are considering.
In addition, when selecting a roof shingle, it is equally important to consider a proper ventilation system which will exhaust excessive heat and moisture. Condensation and heat build-up in the attic can reduce the effectiveness of insulation and damage roofing components causing rafters and sheathing to rot and shingles to soften, curl and buckle. When replacing or installing a new roof, it is an excellent time to evaluate other roofing projects such as a gutter protection system, gutters and downspouts. It is more economical and convenient to have these enhancements installed with a new roof.
YOU MAY HAVE VERIFIABLE
WIND DAMAGE!
Strong winds can break that seal and cause the shingle to lift up and fracture during the wind event. It is these fractures that will eventually cause the shingle tab to break off and leave a void. Shingle fractures and the inability for shingles to reseal due to wind is an insurance loss. Shingle fractures are difficult if not impossible to see from the ground. Shingles that are missing are usually an indication of wind damage and a result of a wind storm event. |
