Why Your Texas Roof Matters
First Off, Your home is likely your largest life investment. A strong roofing system ensures it stands the test of time. In Texas, the weather tests your roof more than almost anywhere else.
5 Signs of a Great Roofing System
Choose a roofing option that scores well in these five categories:
-
Impact Resistance: Look for a Class 4 Impact Rating. This is the highest rating available for hail protection.
-
Wind Rating: High winds cause many Texas insurance claims. Choose shingles rated for at least 130-mph winds.
-
Fire Rating: Brush fires pose a real risk in Texas. Class A ratings provide the best protection for your home.
-
Moisture Resistance: A good roof sheds water to prevent mold and rot. Proper attic ventilation also prevents premature roof failure.
-
UV Resistance: The intense Texas sun makes traditional asphalt shingles brittle. Modern synthetic systems offer much better UV protection.
Important Questions for Homeowners
Ask yourself these questions before choosing a new roofing material:
-
Is it easy to install? Ensure your contractor has experience with your specific roofing material.
-
How much weight can the roof take? Confirm your home’s structure can support your chosen material.
-
What maintenance is required? Asphalt and metal require routine upkeep. Some synthetic options are virtually maintenance-free.
-
How durable is the product? Your roof must withstand sun, hail, fire, and wind-driven rain.
