Your choice of roofing has a huge impact on the style and aesthetic of your home. While you may be tempted to go with whatever option is most economical, other options may be more attractive and better suit the style of your home. Here are five types of roofing you might like for your house.

5 Attractive Roofing Styles to Match Your Architecture

1. Clay Barrel Tiles

Clay barrel tiles are half-tube shaped tiles which are applied in interlocking rows, half facing up and half facing down. They are the classic choice for Spanish Colonial homes with stucco exterior walls, as well as Mediterranean-style constructions with arched windows.

2. S Tiles

These create a similar look to clay barrel tiles but are made in an interlocking S shape instead of a C shape. These tiles can be made of clay or concrete, and are used on the same home styles as the clay barrel option.

3. Flat Concrete

Flat concrete tiles are best suited for square, boxy styles like Southern Colonial and Ranch style. A good rule of thumb is that flat tiles go with square or rectangular windows, while curved tiles go with round or arched windows.

4. Metal Panels

Metal roofing is another option for Ranch style homes and is the material of choice for Key West construction. This is because it’s efficient at reflecting heat, a key feature for construction styles in warmer regions.

5. Asphalt Shingles

For modern flat or skillion roofs, a simple asphalt shingle may be all you need. This is a popular choice because asphalt shingles are the lowest cost roofing option, come in numerous patterns and shades, and are easy to replace.
