Matching a new roof to your existing one takes more than grabbing the closest shingle color at the hardware store. At United Contracting & Roofing, we look at:

• Shingle material and texture
• Pitch and slope of the original roof
• Overhang depth and fascia detail
• Roofline symmetry and drainage patterns

If your current roof is asphalt and ten years old, for example, installing brand-new shingles on just one part of the house can look uneven. In many cases, we recommend re-roofing the entire structure. This creates a clean, uniform appearance and prevents premature aging on one section.

We often hear, “But my existing roof still looks good!” And it may. But if it’s got less than five years of life left, it often makes more financial sense to do the full roof while the crews are already mobilized, saving time and labor costs in the long run.
