Starting the Year with a Secure Roof

At Fasto Roofing, we believe that the beginning of the year is an excellent time to consider a roof replacement. Here are some essential tips to guide you through the process.



1. Explore Roofing Material Options

  • Asphalt Shingles: Popular for their cost-effectiveness and resistance to moisture and pests.

  • Metal Roofing: Known for durability and available in various styles with exterior paint finishes.

  • EPDM Roofing: A synthetic rubber option ideal for low-slope and flat roofs.

  • Other Materials: Consider wood shakes, terracotta tiles, and slate stone for unique aesthetics.


2. Budget-Friendly Tips

  • Compare Estimates: Get free cost estimates from multiple roofers to find the best deal.

  • Prompt Repairs: Address minor roof damages promptly to avoid the need for full replacements.

  • Slow Season Savings: Schedule your roofing project during the fall or winter to take advantage of lower prices.

  • Consider Warranties: Choose roofing materials with comprehensive warranty coverage. Brands like GAF offer extended warranties.
