We know that installing a new roof can bite a large chunk out of your savings, and it is a significant investment, but it is also something that you wouldn’t want to do too often. Most roofing systems can last up to 30-40 years, sometimes even longer when properly cared for and maintained. Minor maintenance may be a short-term bother, but it is much less of a problem than repairing major roofing issues or replacing the entire roofing system.
The lifespan of your roof is also dependent on things such as environmental conditions, exposure to the elements, and the quality of your roof’s installation. Living in Denver means that your roof is regularly exposed to things such as severe cold temperatures and significant snowfalls. These environmental conditions can significantly impact the lifespan of your rooftop and lead to its accelerated degradation.
Let’s take a look at which roofs last the longest in Denver and thus be easier on your pockets.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingle roofing is one of the most common roofing materials in the (CITY). It is a popular option due to it being relatively cheap and easy to install. However, their lifespan can be anywhere between 10-30 years. Asphalt shingles are capable of survivng fairly well during heavy snowfall; however, they’re not the best at shedding large amounts of snow. This means your roof may suffer under the pressure of heavy snow loads.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is believed to be the most environmentally friendly roofing material available. Metal roofing is often made from 100% recycled materials. Not only is the roof eco-friendly, but it is also cost-effective as it has a lifespan of 30-50 years, and with proper maintenance, you can stretch this lifespan to nearly 70 years. Metal roofing systems are the best under snowy weather conditions, and they’re capable of shedding snow really quickly while insulating your home really well.
Tile Roofing
Tile roofing can add a pleasant, tailored aesthetic to your home. The tiles are made from terracotta clay, ceramics, or concrete. When properly maintained, your tile roof can last you about 100 years. However, homeowners with tile roofs need to be on the lookout for cracking tiles, especially in areas with sweltering climates. Tile roofs also do not do well with a lot of foot traffic on them. Thanks to their strength and durability, the roofing material fairs pretty well under all weather conditions. You don’t have to worry about your roofing system suffering during Denver’s extreme seasons.
Flat Roofing
Flat roofing systems are known for being durable and highly weather-resistant. Commercial building owners prefer flat roofing systems due to their easy installation and maintenance. Flat rooftops have a lifespan of about 20 years, but their lifespan can be affected by things like environmental influences and foot traffic.
