When investing in a shingle roof replacement in San Antonio, TX, it’s not enough to select one that can withstand severe weather conditions. It’s also essential to consider if your choice will add to your home’s curb appeal. One effective way is to select shingle roofing that will match your home’s architectural style.
GAF® Master Elite™ contractor Roofer Chicks® discusses the popular home styles in Texas and our GAF-certified shingle roofs that will match them.
Craftsman
Shallow pitched roofing, asymmetrical window and door compositions, and a broad front porch, define this architectural style. This was popularized during the turn of the 20th century by architect and furniture designer Gustav Stickley in his magazine, The Craftsman.
For these kinds of homes, we recommend GAF’s popular Timberline® shingle that offers a natural wood shake look. The Grand Sequoia®, which comes with extra-large design and over-sized tabs that offer a realistic wood-shake look, is also perfect. Consider earthy tones, which include grays, greens, and varying shades of browns, for the shingle color.
Ranch
This architectural style is characterized by a simple exterior with long, low roof lines, and lower pitched roofs. They’re often rectangular or L-shaped having a brick, wood, or stucco exterior.
We recommend our Grand Sequoia, Timberline, and Grand Canyon® roofing in San Antonio, TX, to complement these features. For instance, Grand Canyon highlights a rugged wood-shake appearance that perfectly blends with this house style. Meanwhile, different tones of browns, blacks, and grays, can put emphasis on their exceptional features.
Modern
This architecture breaks away from traditional aesthetics. It strives to display linear and simple elements. A typical modern home features a low-pitched or flat roof and a simplistic form. For this kind of home style, we recommend our Slateline® shingle roofs that show bold shadow lines and tapered cut-outs, creating the natural look of slate. Darker greys and browns will surely match the beauty offered by this shingle roofing.
