The key to a properly functioning home lies in the roof over your head. The roof, after all, keeps your home climatized while protecting it from inclement weather throughout the seasons. In addition, it’s one of the first things people notice when determining the attractiveness of your home’s exterior. That’s why when it’s time for a roof replacement, proper attention needs to be given to your decision. One type of roof that has consistently delivered for homeowners decade after decade is the asphalt shingle roof. Between its affordability, durability, and style options, roofing with asphalt shingles is a popular option for homeowners considering replacing or installing a brand-new roof. In this article, our expert team at Cenco Building Services explains the many benefits of asphalt shingles compared to other types of roofs, and how this superior material can add significant value to your home investment.

The Endless Benefits of Asphalt Roofing Materials

Even though asphalt shingles are very popular, it can be difficult to understand exactly what a homeowner gets when they invest in any particular material. To help homeowners with the decision process, we have compiled a short but informative list on the merits of roofing with asphalt shingles:

• Inexpensive: Overall, asphalt shingles are one of the most affordable options for homeowners. Replacing a roof can be costly, to begin with, so having an option that is already designed to help save on costs can only be a good thing.
• Easy Installation: The last thing a homeowner wants is a construction project that lasts for days if not weeks. With asphalt shingles, it is possible that the installation can be done in as little as a day.Aesthetic Appeal: With asphalt shingles, there is a large range of style and color choices available. This allows you to get a roof that matches the rest of your house, thereby enhancing your curb appeal and your own personal style.
• Durability: Unlike other roofing options, asphalt shingles combine their affordability with great durability, and require very little maintenance. In addition, they are designed to combat extreme temperatures including heat and ice, which means your asphalt shingles are also hail-resistant shingles.
• Lightweight:Most homes are already constructed to handle asphalt shingle roofs. This means that no additional support structures are needed unlike if you choose slate or tile roofs, which directly translates to less time and cost for installation needed.

If you’re looking for the best combination of affordability, durability, and project speed you cannot go wrong with asphalt shingles. Keep in mind, that the roofing process can be tricky, even if the materials make it easier. That’s why you should get a professional roofing company that offers full services such as the ones at Cenco Building Services to install your new roof.

The winter time in Colorado brings snow and brisk temperatures. While Coloradoans enjoy the refreshing change of the seasons and the mix of sun and snow, it can wreak havoc on your roofing system. While imperceptible to the naked eye, roofing shingles expand (stretch) and contract (shrink) each and every day. Those effects are exacerbated by the seasonal change from warm to cold.
As a Colorado homeowner – especially along the Front Range, you must always be cautious in protecting your home form unwanted effects of the freeze and thaw cycle

STEPS TO TAKE:

1. Know the conditions of your roof before winter arrives!

Most homeowners do not have the expertise required to assess the condition of a roof, so it is advisable to have an expert inspect your roof and identify any red flags before winter.

2. Visually check your roof from the ground every 6 months

While we never recommend walking under the roof of your home due to the inherent dangers, you can look to see if there are any missing shingles or exposed flashing from a ground-level vantage point.

3. Look for signs of damage to the exterior paint

Cracking and peeling paint may indicate two things: destructive dams are forming along your roof and damaging the roof/gutter interaction, or there are leaks from damaged flashing or missing shingles

4. Have your gutters professionally cleaned

Clogged gutters can lead to damage from ice dams that form at the roof’s edge due to the water not being able to travel down the gutter and away from the house. With winter approaching, the time has come to have your roof inspected! Protect the investment you’ve made in your home by scheduling a no-obligation roof inspection with a trained inspector from CENCO Building Services

This Dream House is a new radio program (Sports Radio 104.3 on Sundays at 7am MST) about renovations, remodels, and many other topics related to converting your property into your Dream House. Matt discussed launching Cenco coming back to Colorado and seeing the need for an additional locally-owned, locally-sourced and family-run roofing business to help meet demand along the Front Range. He also talks about hail season, roofing styles, and the importance of impact-resistance shingles for Denver homeowners. If you didn’t catch us live, you can listen to the full broadcast here:

Cenco Building Services is proud to give back to the community by continuing our participation in the Habitat for Humanity program, a worldwide charity organization committed to making low-income housing a reality for families all over the world. As a leading Denver roofing company, our family-owned, locally-owned business is excited to leverage our 17 years of industry experience to provide quality roofing construction and safe installation services through this program. Take a look at some of the details about this wonderful organization, our role in the project, and more about our company’s commitment to providing superior quality building services for all residents in Denver and the surrounding area through Habitat for Humanity this year.

About Habitat For Humanity

Habitat for Humanity is a global non-profit organization whose mission is to help provide affordable yet decent housing in low-income areas. By partnering with volunteers, companies, and other organizations, the company has grown to serve in more than 70 countries around the world. One of the fascinating features of this program is its reliance on volunteers and community involvement to realize the completion of the home being built. Building a house requires hard work and plenty of hands, and construction is completed with the help of volunteers. To ensure the safety of the new home construction, Humanity relies on experts like our team at Cenco Building Services to oversee the process and check that every aspect of construction is meeting proper codes and regulations. The future homeowners benefiting from the program also contribute to the building of their new home, which adds to the satisfaction of the process for everyone involved. The end result is the completion of the home and the satisfaction of having worked together to make someone’s dream a reality.

The Project

Our company has always been involved with Habitat for Humanity, through 2% donations that we give to the charity from our sales. This year, however, our team was excited to help out with the actual building process of the new home, located at 5057 Grand Street in Denver, Colorado, and to lend our professionalism and expertise towards the construction of the new home’s rooftop.

Our Process

For over 17 years, our expert building team at Cenco Building Services has gone above and beyond to provide expert roofing services and premium materials for our customers.
