Why Your Roof Deserves Extra Attention

Top Roofing Materials to Consider
- Asphalt Shingles: Affordable and versatile, perfect for most homes.
- Metal Roofing: Durable and energy-efficient, ideal for harsh weather.
- Clay Tiles: Offers a timeless look but requires a larger investment.
- Wood Shingles: Rustic appeal, though it demands regular upkeep.
Pro Tip: Metal roofing is gaining popularity for its durability in extreme Midwest weather.
