​

Asphalt Shingles.

Asphalt shingles usually come in strips that are easy to install. They are also usually the most affordable type of shingles. They lay flat against the roof, and they are very lightweight. Dimensional shingles are used more now because they are sturdier and have longer warranties than strip shingles, up to 30 years. They are thicker, so they don’t lie as flat against the roof. Premium asphalt shingles are yet another option that can be formed to look like other kinds of shingles – natural slate or shake roofing, for example. 
​

Getting a shingle roof in Wichita – no matter which kind you choose – is a great choice for several reasons: 

• Price – Roofing shingles are inexpensive, but they’ll still last a long time, up to 15 years in most cases. If your budget is tight, shingles are a good choice. You can always replace it with something more expensive down the road…if you want to. 

• Variety – As we discussed above, there are countless color and style options among asphalt shingle roofing, so you can find something that will match your home, shudders, or other building roofs perfectly. 

• Easy Installation – Asphalt shingle roofing can be installed very quickly without much trouble. We can usually install this type of roof in a few days.

Cedar Shingles.

A shingle roof in Wichita doesn’t just have to be made of asphalt. Commercial cedar roofing in Wichita is another really good choice. Cedar shingles were originally sawed from a block of wood, and cedar ‘shakes’ were split from the wood with primitive tools, like a mallet and froe. 


Today, many people do not know the difference because the techniques for making them has become similar, and imitation cedar shingles and shakes can be made from materials other than wood. 
Cedar roofing has many benefits as well: 

• Aesthetics – Cedar is a beautiful wood that ages nicely. The natural material is an interesting visual element compared to manmade roofing choices. It turns from reddish tan into a silver-gray over years. It will look great when it’s installed, and it won’t look worn over time. 
• Cost Effectiveness – Cedar does cost more than asphalt shingles initially, but it will last at least a decade longer than other residential roofing options. And because they are heavy and durable, you will probably save money by not having to replace damaged shingles after storms or high winds. 
• Efficiency – Commercial cedar roofing in Wichita is energy saving because it provides insulation for your roof naturally. Also, cedar shake and shingle roofs are eco-friendly when harvested correctly. After cedar shingles are harvested, cedar trees can be replanted to replace what was taken, leaving virtually no environmental footprint.
