Materials we install
Every material we offer, with honest pros and cons to help you choose with confidence.
Asphalt Shingle
The most popular roofing material in America — a reliable, budget-friendly option available in dozens of colors and styles.
- Affordable upfront cost
- Wide range of colors and styles
- Fast, straightforward installation
- Shortest lifespan of common materials (roughly 15–20 years)
- Less impact and wind resistance than premium options
Designer Asphalt
A heavier, multi-layered asphalt shingle that mimics the dimensional look of slate or shake at a fraction of the cost.
- Richer, dimensional curb appeal
- Stronger wind ratings than standard 3-tab asphalt
- Longer manufacturer warranties (30–50 yr)
- Costs more than standard asphalt
- Still a wear-and-replace material, not a lifetime roof
BRAVA Synthetic Slate / Shake
Premium composite roofing made from up to 85% recycled material, engineered to replicate natural slate or cedar shake without the weight or upkeep.
- Class 4 impact resistance
- Lightweight — no structural reinforcement needed
- 50-year warranty, very low maintenance
- Higher upfront cost than asphalt
- Newer product with a shorter track record than natural materials
Standing Seam Metal
Concealed-fastener metal panels that deliver a clean, modern look with outstanding durability against wind, hail, and fire.

Hand-split natural wood shakes that bring a rustic warmth and dimension that manufactured products can't quite replicate.
