Both modern steel roofs and asphalt shingles are popular roofing options, but they serve different needs depending on your priorities like cost, durability, aesthetics, and maintenance.

Here’s a breakdown:

• Durability: Steel roofs are extremely durable and can last 40–70 years. Asphalt shingles, like those offered by CertainTeed, typically last 20–30 years—but CertainTeed’s premium shingles are designed for enhanced lifespan and superior weather resistance.
• Cost: Asphalt shingles are generally more affordable upfront compared to steel roofing. They’re quicker to install and require less structural reinforcement, making them a budget-friendly option without compromising on performance.
• Aesthetics: Today’s asphalt shingles offer incredible design flexibility. CertainTeed provides a wide range of colors, textures, and styles that mimic slate, wood shake, or even tile—giving homeowners more options to match their home’s look.
• Maintenance: Steel roofs require minimal maintenance, but they can dent and may require specialized repair. CertainTeed’s asphalt shingles are low-maintenance too, with features like algae resistance and UV protection built in.
• Noise & Insulation: Steel can be noisy during rain unless properly insulated. Asphalt shingles offer better sound insulation and are often more energy-efficient in typical residential setups.
• Sustainability: Steel is recyclable, but CertainTeed’s asphalt shingles are also manufactured with sustainability in mind, often containing recycled content and being part of responsible production processes.

In summary, if you want a cost-effective, stylish, and high-performance roof, CertainTeed’s asphalt shingles are a trusted and proven solution. For those prioritizing ultra-long lifespan and don’t mind a higher initial investment, modern steel roofing may be a good fit.

It really comes down to your home’s needs, location, and budget.
