The Benefits of Synthetic Roofing for Idaho Homes
Are you looking for an attractive roofing solution that will increase your property value and that can withstand Idaho’s sun, hail, wind, and snow? Synthetic roofing materials could be the answer you’re looking for to successfully face these elements head-on while adding curb appeal to your home.
Synthetic Roofing
Synthetic or composite roofing offers Idaho homeowners a more elegant look to their homes while adding durability and protection to the roof. Composite roofing technology offers roofing systems that look exactly like far more expensive roofing options; Cedar Shakes, Slate, or Tile.
What Is Synthetic Roofing
Synthetic roofing is becoming increasingly popular in the roofing business. Also known as composite roofing materials, manufactured products can contain polyurethane technology, recycled rubber or plastic, or a mixture of ingredients.
A composite roofing system will use these synthetic materials pressed into shingles, slate, tiles, or even wood shake shingles that resemble the real materials. These cost-efficient roofing options offer durability and an aesthetic look that homeowners love. This roofing choice carries several benefits for the homeowner and the installation team.
Benefits of Synthetic Roofing Materials
Installing synthetic roofing materials in Idaho homes help homeowners in multiple ways. If you are presently exploring roofing options for a new home or a roof replacement project, take a look at composite roofing solutions.
Some noticeable benefits of selecting synthetic roofing materials include the following:
- Aesthetic designs at a fraction of the cost
- Natural-looking roofing materials
- Durability
- Ease of installation
Aesthetic Designs at a Fraction of the Cost
Although a synthetic roof is available in many styles that look like cedar, shake, or slate, it is far less expensive than the real material. Manufactured materials are less costly than authentic choices, giving homeowners a way to have a beautiful roof on their homes without spending extra money for it.
Natural-Looking Roofing Materials
The advantage of synthetic materials is the ability to make them look any way you want. For example, manufacturers now offer composite roofing options in natural-looking choices to match your existing home and provide elegance to your residence.
Slate
Traditional slate roofing materials are composed of stone and molded into tiles. However, natural slate is extremely heavy and expensive, making synthetic slate materials a better alternative for homeowners. This way, they have the elegant beauty of slate without the costly disadvantages.
Shake
A standard shake roof consists of wood materials that provide an aesthetically pleasing look to a home. Consequently, natural wood roofing requires continuous maintenance to weather-proof and is susceptible to chipping and breaking. Synthetic shake materials provide long-lasting, low-maintenance roof materials that offer the same great look.
Cedar
Cedar is similar to other shake choices but is higher quality wood, making it more expensive than natural shake. With synthetic cedar roofing materials, homeowners can have an aesthetically pleasing roof at a lower cost while requiring less maintenance than the genuine alternatives.
Shingle
Standard asphalt shingles are common with many homes in Idaho. When installed properly, they can last up to 20 years. However, shingles tend to break down with UV exposure and harsh weather. Choosing synthetic shingle materials allows homeowners to make a more durable choice at an affordable cost.
Durability
Synthetic roofing is highly durable and will last for years in an Idaho home. Their unique material composition can withstand harsh weather while still maintaining their beauty. Unlike natural products, synthetic roofs are resistant to UV rays, have a Class A fire rating, and will not break or chip.
Ease of Installation
Roofing contractors often prefer synthetic materials just as much as homeowners do but for different reasons. For example, composite roofing is generally lightweight and easier to handle than slate or cedar during installations.
A roofing professional will have an easier time transporting synthetic items up and down, making fewer trips. In addition, this material choice is simple to install, being cost-effective in the long run.
The less time a contractor spends installing your new roofing system, the less money you will pay for labor costs.
