If your roof is due for a replacement, it’s useful to take a look at current roofing trends. Often times, certain materials will increase in popularity for a good reason, and it’s only beneficial to be well informed of your options. Better yet, if you ever plan on selling your home, having a desirable roof will increase the value of your home.

Modern roofing trends are moving towards more useful and durable materials. These materials allow homeowners to enjoy contemporary styles, extraordinary durability, and lower energy bills. Here are some of the hottest current trends that demand your attention.

 

Go Green

Global warming is real, and the roofing community has responded. Roofs are using more energy-efficient techniques, such as solar panels and reflective coatings to reduce our carbon footprint. These innovations also stand to benefit homeowners’ wallets. As their total heating and cooling expenses start trending downward.

If you literally want to go green, you can do that too. Putting organic material on top of roofs is a current trend that gives people grass-covered homes or rooftop gardens. Not only does this provide a unique ecosystem, without much necessary maintenance, but it also offers an extra shade that lowers electricity bills.

 

Metaling Around

Metal roofs were recently thrust into popularity by a substantial amount of people who are interested in eco-friendly options. In recent years, we’ve steadily worked on debunking myths surrounding metal roofs. As a result, more and more, homeowners are realizing the practical value of this option. While they cost more than their asphalt counterparts, metal roofing more than pays for itself in the long term.

Once installed, you can expect less maintenance, damage, leaking, fires, repairs, and money spent on energy bills. Concerns, such as increased noise, can be mitigated with insulation while denting is rare at best. If your budget allows for metal roofing, it is absolutely an option worth considering.

 

Cutting Edge Colors

Did you know that there is an annual roof color of the year? Owners Corning voted Aged Copper as the 2021 Shingle Color of the Year. Aged Copper is described as being a peaceful blend of colours that instantly remind you of nature’s expansive beauty.

While we are not here to explicitly endorse a specific shingle color, it can be useful to know what is currently in style. A cutting edge color palette can do wonders to accentuate the exterior features of your home. Plus, it can boost curb appeal and attract more potential buyers.

 

Final Thoughts

Thanks to modern technology, the world is growing, adapting, and evolving faster than ever. Staying up to date with recent developments can be overwhelming, and those in the roofing department are bound to be an afterthought.
