A New Roof For Your Home

As Ottawa Roofing contractors, BestCan knows that having a good roof over your head is important! If you live in an older home, it’s important to understand the integrity of your roof. Has your roof ever been replaced or re-shingled?

Here are some important considerations to make when choosing a new roof:

Ottawa Roofing Styles

Although driveways, lawns, siding, and front doors get most of the attention when we think about curb appeal, the roof contributes mightily to the look of a house. If you are considering a new roof, look for the shingle that best suits your home’s architectural style. You’ll also want to factor in the surface area, pitch, and angle of the roof to determine whether a standard three-tab, dimensional, or artisan-crafted shingle will deliver the look you want.

Color

Like style, color is also an important consideration when choosing a new roof. Selecting a coloration that complements your home’s exterior palette and surroundings will create a harmonious and elegant look. In general, if a large portion of your home’s roof is visible from the street, you might want to keep things subdued, as larger roofs look better in neutral tones. Also, avoid using a heavily patterned roof on a home that has brick or stone facing to keep things from getting too busy.

Durability

You’ll want to make certain that the roof you choose stands up to the elements and provides lasting beauty throughout its lifetime. One way to be sure—shop quality and brand.’ (Michael Franco, bobvila.com)
