Before you choose a roofing system for your home, there are a multitude of factors to consider. Your personal tastes, architectural style, and budget will all have a great amount of influence on the type of system that you select. If you need to install a new roof in Ontario, here are four basic things to take into consideration:

1. Material

The type of material that you choose for your roofing system will have a major impact on its durability, physical appearance, longevity, and cost. Many areas of the country also have building codes regarding roofing material, so you should check with your local authorities before choosing one. Certain neighborhoods may also have strict aesthetic requirements.

2. Budget

As with any home improvement project, your budget will undoubtedly come into play. Asphalt shingles are the least expensive, and slate is the most expensive material. Companies that specialize in roofing in Ontario can help you choose a system that fits your budget, and by browsing their inventories, you will be able to compare your options.

3. Architecture

The architectural style of your home will also influence the type of roofing system that you choose. The majority of homes use asphalt shingles, but many homeowners are willing to spend extra in order to maintain architectural integrity. The majority of roofing experts recommend installing a system that compliments the style of your home.

4. Color

The colour is extremely important when it comes to roofing systems. Darker colored roofs tend to retain heat, while lighter colored roofing in Ontario tends to repel it. Consider the climate that you live in, and choose a roof that keeps your energy bills low. Depending on the roofing system, some systems can reduce the effects colour has on heat. For instance, a black metal roof attached with AVS (double wood strapping) affords as much energy savings as a “cool roof” coloured direct-to-deck roof system with a solar reflectance of 0.25.

Final Notes

There is no set formula for choosing the right roof, but by keeping the mentioned factors in mind, you can certainly come close. You should also keep your own personal tastes in mind during this process since the roof will be installed on your house. By remembering these factors, you will definitely select a roof that beautifully complements your home.
