Top Five Roofing Industry Trends For 2021

The roof plays an essential role in the home and business. It is no wonder that the industry is always coming up with new and innovative ways to protect, change, and perfect roofing methods to outlast the competition. The importance of knowing these trends and possible trends will give you a leg up on the competition and help your business stand out. Here are the five roofing trends with the highest potential in 2021.

Metal roofing has been around for awhile, but it has a high potential to expand in 2021. Metal roofing was reserved for industrial buildings, barns, and few others. Now it is available for homes and comes in a wide variety of colors and styles.

While metal roofing is expensive, it has many benefits for home and business alike. It is a durable roofing material that, if taken care of, can last far longer than traditional asphalt shingles. Metal roofing is great for keeping your home cool in the summer by reflecting UV rays, and similarly in winter where it adds extra insulation. The durability and cost saving of this material will save money in the long run.

Solar Roofing Panels 

It’s clear to see in the economy we live in that energy options are changing quickly and expanding. It’s not only electric cars, but the solar roofing systems are rapidly growing. Solar roofing has changed from just having bulky solar panels on your roof. 

New solar panels are financially viable and they save you money each and every month you have them. Solar shingles, solar films, solar panels, and much more exist for the home now. The solar industry is becoming more efficient as the technology emerges. Some states are allowing special offers/discounts to homeowners who decide to take the extra step to save the environment. This trend will be expanding for years to come.

Synthetic Roofing Materials

Another trend in roofing you can expect to see more of are synthetic roofing materials. These materials are generally made of a durable polyurethane material. Polyurethane is a very durable material and will hold up in the harshest of environments. Not only are they durable, they offer a great variation of size, shape, and colors while holding the authentic look of traditional materials. 

Synthetic roofing is becoming increasingly popular over the years for good reason. The materials are lightweight, durable, and have incredible ratings against the climate. It is important to research manufacturers in order to get the best price for the roofing material you can fall in love with.

Silicone Roof Coatings

This trend of roofing is widely used in the commercial part of roofing, but it is slowly making its way to the residential side. This option is perfect for homeowners who want to help their roof last, and even change the appearance without having to tear off and replace. 

With a silicone roof coating, it is now possible to cover and fix an old roof with just two coats. The coats create a protective enamel that is leak proof. This creates a membrane on the roof that won’t deteriorate or crack when it is exposed to harmful UV rays. 

Green Roofing

Eco-friendly seems to be the trend of the future. What is more eco-friendly than having a garden on your roof? Not only will the green roof protect your home, you are helping the environment year round.

It may sound odd to have a garden for a roof but there are a few aspects to consider. They add an interesting aesthetic to your home that is not really common. Green roofs have a positive impact on the environment by creating natural habitats that help reduce the world’s climate problem. A green roof will protect and insulate your home with the added protection to the environment. 

Final Thoughts

Considering that the roof is the first line of defense, it is important to expand and grow to find the best options for the future. 2021 will be a year to expand, reach out, and create a more sustainable roofing system. These potential trends will not only protect the environment, they will save the contractor and client money. Roofing is what holds the house together and plays a critical part in keeping your family safe.
