Homeowner Tips
A new roof does more than shield your home from the elements—it can save you money over time and enhance your home’s overall look. But how do you know when to replace your roof, and what’s the best approach? To help you make an informed decision for your home and family, we’ve put together some practical tips and insights.
When Is It Time To Replace My Roof?
If your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan—typically 20 to 25 years for asphalt shingles—it may be time to consider a replacement. However, age isn’t the only factor to keep in mind. Upgrading to a synthetic roof can help maintain your home’s value and enhance durability, especially if you live in an area prone to severe weather events like hail or tornadoes. Synthetic tiles offer added resilience, making them a smart choice to withstand the challenges posed by Mother Nature.
Choosing A Color For Your Roof
Your roof is a long-term feature of your home, so it’s essential to select a color that complements its structure and style. Darker colors, for example, can add depth and balance to larger homes or multi-story Colonial-style houses but may feel overpowering on single-story homes. On the other hand, lighter colors can make single-story homes appear more spacious, though they may disrupt the visual balance on multi-level properties. With Brava’s extensive color selection in synthetic cedar shake, slate, and Spanish barrel tiles, you can find or even customize the perfect match for your home’s unique palette. And if you’re not working with an architect or designer, our experts are ready to guide you in choosing the ideal shade.
Did You Know You Can Save Energy With The Right Roofing?
Brava synthetic roofing is engineered to reflect sunlight and UV rays rather than absorb them, significantly regulating your home’s internal temperature. In the summer, this reflective quality helps keep your home cooler, reducing the strain on air conditioning systems. Brava’s advanced materials provide better insulation during winter by minimizing heat loss, helping maintain a warmer indoor environment. This energy-efficient design enhances year-round comfort and substantially saves energy bills. By choosing Brava Roofing, you invest in a sustainable solution supporting your wallet and the environment.
You Can Also Save On Insurance
Insurance companies consider various factors when setting your home insurance rate, including the roof’s age, condition, and material. Traditional cedar shake roofs, for example, lack fire resistance, often leading to higher premiums due to increased risk. Similarly, asphalt shingles are vulnerable to heavy winds and can be easily torn away. Synthetic roofing, on the other hand, offers superior durability and resilience against fire, wind, and other extreme weather conditions. By opting for a synthetic roof, you may qualify for a lower insurance rate, thanks to its enhanced safety features and long-lasting performance.
