Composition shingles perform well, especially given their affordable price. Higher-quality versions made from asphalt or fiberglass shingles offer durable options and may be available with recycled content. Composition shingles come in a large selection of types, brands and colors, require little maintenance and can be walked on without damage to the material. Most brands offer Class-A fire protection—the highest fire rating available for residential roofing. Although traditional composition roofing does not look like tile or shake, new premium product lines have patterns to emulate a three-dimensional look. Premium shingles are sometimes referred to as Presidential, with a thicker profile designed to add dimension and detail to your roof.

Modern metal roofing has come a long way. Now found in a wide variety of styles and colors, metal is perhaps the most durable product on the market today. Available in shingle and shake styles, metal roofing offers a lightweight, durable roofing options that can last 50 years or more. Metal roofs are durable, fire retardant and virtually maintenance-free. When the right color is selected, many styles of metal roofing provide a less expensive and lower maintenance option to cedar. Metal roofs are particularly attractive for homes located in forested areas that require frequent cleaning of leaves and needles. They are also used in areas of heavy snowfall and where moss control is particularly critical and difficult.

The most common roofing used on flat roofs, torch down roofing is sometimes referred to as rubberized asphalt. Asphalt is melted onto the roof using a torch, creating an impermeable roof—important for the rain-drenched winters of the Pacific Northwest. When properly installed and maintained, a torch down roof can last 20 years. The cost is only slightly more than traditional tar and gravel but gives superior protection from the elements.

Be Aware that Installation Problems Don't Show Up Immediately

Just because your roof has never leaked before does not mean the original installation went smoothly. In fact, roofs most commonly fail because some aspect of the original installation was done poorly. Problems caused by poor installation often don't show up for five or ten years. By the time there's a leak, the home has changed hands or the homeowner has no longer has any recollection of who installed the roof. Then there are the lucky few homeowners whose roofs fail simply because the materials have surpassed their useful life. If your roof is starting to leak and is 15 years old or older, there is a good chance that you'll need a new roof soon.
