When it comes to your home’s roof, choosing the right material will impact its longevity, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Asphalt shingles are popular for roofs because they are cost-effective, versatile and durable. As a home inspection company, we want you to understand your home, especially when you are in the process of deciding whether to buy a property.
