Roofing Types

Types of Roofs We Offer

Different types of roofing shingles are suitable for different projects, and it’s vital for a homeowner to choose the right type for their specific needs. One of the most common types of roofing shingles is asphalt – light, affordable, and easy to install.
Asphalt shingles are best suited for small-scale projects and can last over 15 years if maintained properly. Metal or synthetic shingles are an excellent choice for those who want the look and feel of wood without the risk of premature damage due to moisture or insects.

They provide long-lasting durability and protection from fire, hail, and other extreme weather conditions. Clay tiles with an embossed finish can often be counted on for many decades, provided they’re installed correctly and not exposed to extreme weather conditions every single day. Finally, slate roof tiles are another option as they offer superior longevity and are waterproof naturally.

Composition Shingles

Composition roofing shingles are a popular choice for homeowners due to their durability and affordability.
  • Will last between 20-30 years with proper maintenance
  • Weather-, fire-, and insect-resistant
  • Made up of a mixture of materials: asphalt, fiberglass, and others
  • On average, will cost between $2.50-$4.50 per square foot
  • Can be more expensive than traditional roofing materials and may not be as aesthetically pleasing
  • Three most common types of composition shingles

Metal Roofs

Another popular choice for homeowners due to its durability, metal roofing has the potential to last up to 50 years when maintained properly.
  • Can save hundreds or thousands of dollars over time due to durability
  • Fire-resistant
  • Low-maintenance — never need painting or repairs
  • More energy efficient than asphalt shingles
  • Can increase value of property both short-term and long-term
  • Can be noisy during heavy rain or hail
  • Not suitable for every architectural style
  • Higher upfront cost than other types of roofing materials
  • Available in a wide range of styles to match any architectural style, including:

Flat Roofs

Flat roofs are widely used to create an extra outside space that can be used for outdoor living, and they can make overall maintenance much easier due to ease of access.

  • Easier maintenance and repairs
  • Can be insulated depending on climate, making them energy-efficient
  • Can protect from weather elements like strong winds and hail
  • Aesthetically pleasing
  • Average cost is between $3-$10 per square foot (but can be higher for more durable and energy-efficient options)
  • Versatile
  • Can be prone to leaks when installed incorrectly
  • Require regular maintenance to prevent water buildup, which can lead to mold and mildew growth
  • Styles of flat roofs include:

I recently had the pleasure of working with M&M for siding work on my house, and I must say, the experience exceeded all my expectations. From the get-go, the level of customer service was simply outstanding. A special shoutout to Sam, our representative, who was not only professional and knowledgeable but also incredibly attentive to our needs.

Sam went above and beyond to ensure that all our questions were answered, and our concerns addressed, making the entire process smooth and stress-free.

We just had our roof replaced by M&M Roofing in Clearlake and were very pleased with their work. Michael McCollom did a great job of explaining everything to us beforehand, including discussing options and plans, the pricing and scope was very fair and reasonable. Once we signed the contract for the work, he communicated with us promptly about dates and expectations. The crew showed up and they were extremely fast and efficient. The roof looks great, and we couldn't be happier. We highly recommend M&M Roofing Siding & Windows.

We had M&M come out to repair a couple of leaks in our covered patio. Greg was super helpful in diagnosing the issues, providing lots of information on how best to make the repairs and options for what we needed.


The work was completed in one day and Greg came out to make sure the crew was doing everything the way he wanted. The whole process was really great. Very professional from start to finish. Thanks M&M.
