A roof’s lifespan can vary considerably depending on what material is used. Your typical shingle roof will usually last between 25 and 30 years, according to our team.

Slate, metal, and tile roofs will last considerably longer. Generally, a metal roof can last anywhere from 40 to 70 years, while slate and tile can last 100 years or more with regular maintenance in our experience. If you're in need of roof replacement in Brandon, FL, give us a call today!

The most common roofing material is asphalt shingles, which happens to also be the most durable and affordable. However, not all asphalt shingles are created equally. Asphalt shingle technology has increased tenfold over the years. In our experience, shingles from 2005 pale in comparison to asphalt shingles in 2021. 

That being said, the most common type of asphalt shingles are your common "three-tab shingles." Three-tab shingles are hardy, affordable, and very common. However, they don’t look or perform as well as the super-durable architectural shingles. Architectural shingles give the look of cedar shingles, but they hold up just as well as asphalt shingles do. They also are more durable because they are thicker. All shingles come in a variety of colors. If you're looking for shingles or local roof repair in Brandon, FL, call us today at Larry Miller Inc!
