Roofing trends don’t all change in a single year. However, with Michigan’s growing housing industry and increased focus on hi-tech construction, it stands to reason that many new roofing products and trends are also in store for this year and the next.
Since asphalt shingles are affordable and easy to install, you can expect them to remain among the top roofing materials in 2017. However, unlike in the past, some modern asphalt roofing system, fitted with all the upgrades locally owned and operated roofing companies have at their disposal, can last for up to 30 or even 40 years.
Roofing tiles that are able to mimic slate and wood, but without the high cost and problematic, high maintenance issues that come with these products, are also showing an increase in demand, especially among Michigan homeowners who are in search of classic designs and practical construction benefits for their new homes.
As for commercial and industrial roofing solutions, you’ll find TPO to be the most popular product this year. Whether you own an office building or just a small store, TPO membrane roofs can provide you with increased protection against UV rays, and prevent chemical exposure, making them one of the most efficient industrial roofing solutions of all.
