Is your roof starting to show its age?

Oftentimes, we don’t think about our roofs until there’s an issue, such as a leak or water spots forming on your ceiling after a storm. But most asphalt shingle roofs in Richmond, VA, will last between 20 and 25 years. If your roof is around 20 years old, it’s proactive to have it checked out before you notice an issue.


Of all the kinds of roofing materials on the market, asphalt shingles are easily the most affordable and versatile. This roofing material dominates the residential roofing market – you will see asphalt shingles on 4 out of 5 homes across the U.S. – and for good reasons. These shingles are available in a wide range of colors and styles, cost-effective, and easy to install compared to other roofing material options.
