It’s true; more and more homeowners are looking to replace their asphalt shingle roofs with something more durable and long-lasting. Cedar wood roofing continues to grow in popularity for homeowners looking to replace their roofs. The top-quality nature of cedar can not be matched!
From the Landmark Exteriors Connecticut roofing experts, here are five reasons to invest in a cedar roof:
Gorgeous Appearance
Many homeowners agree that cedar roofing is one of the most beautiful roofing materials. Cedar shingles have a timeless, classic and sophisticated look that is sure to enhance your home and increase your curb appeal.
Durability
Cedar wood is exceptionally strong and makes for a very durable roofing material. Because of their great durability, homeowners can expect their cedar roofs to last upward of three decades if properly maintained over the years.
Thermal Insulation
When you install cedar shingles, you can expect lower energy bills. Cedar roofing provides natural insulation; twice as much as asphalt shingles! You’ll be amazed at how much heat and cooling energy you conserve that, in turn, will help reduce your energy costs.
Storm and Weather Resistance
If you’re looking for a roofing material that can withstand even the strongest severe weather, cedar is for you! Cedar shingles are very resistant to strong winds, heavy rain and snow, meaning you are less likely to need roofing repairs or replacements after a serious storm. Moreover, cedar roofing doesn’t rely on sealant to be installed, so you can have a cedar roof added to your home at any time of the year.
Increased Home Value
Because of its great appearance, durability and more, your cedar roof will increase the overall value of your home. When it comes time to sell your house, potential buyers will love that you’ve invested in a strong, long-lasting roof that will protect their home and family.
