If you ask respected roofers in Fort Worth, they can quickly tell you that there is no such thing as the “perfect” material for any roofing job. Replacing your residential roof with a new one can always carry risks, but there are ways to determine the type of unique roof that would be ideally suited to your home and the environment in which it was built.
Climate plays a major role, as do details like how much sunlight and precipitation there is in your area. Humidity and dry air, as well as sudden drops in air pressure or temperature can also influence roofers to consider some materials as being better than others. Metals, for instance, respond differently to temperature drops, and some might contract to the extent that the whole roof structure will become damaged when the heat grows too fast in the summer or temperatures drop too suddenly during the winter.
The humidity, occasional precipitation and large temperature differences experienced in Fort Worth throughout the year mean that metals like steel and reinforced residential roofing products like composite shingles and aluminum flashing are preferred. Wood prone to mold and pest infestations, expensive, high maintenance slate and cheap asphalt shingles, on the other hand, are typically discouraged as they would carry too much risk and hassle to properly maintain the roof in the long run.
