Which Roofing Material Is Best for Your Home
If the roof of your house needs replacing, there are many roofing materials from which to choose, including:
Asphalt
Slate
Metal Sheeting
Clay Tiles
Thatch

Longevity and Durability
There are some roofing materials that will last 50 years or longer but they may not be appropriate for every house. Slate tiles are very strong but also very heavy so the structure beneath them needs to be able to hold the weight of the tiles. Slate is a common roofing material in Wales and Northern England.
