Choosing the Right Residential Roof: Why Proper Installation Matters More Than the Product in Johnston & Surrounding Areas

When it comes to selecting a new residential roof, the most important factor isn’t just the product—it’s the quality of the installation. Ryan Johnson, owner of Right Roofing & Siding, often says, “The devil’s in the details.” Proper installation ensures your roof lasts as long as possible, protecting your home from leaks, deterioration, and costly repairs down the road.

A Real-Life Roofing Lesson

In the video, Ryan shares the story of a roof he watched deteriorate for 10 years. When he was finally invited to inspect it, he discovered that everything had been installed correctly, yet the roof had significantly broken down. This highlights why choosing the right roofing team is just as important as choosing the right materials.

Exploring Your Roofing Options

Most homeowners opt for architectural shingles, which make up 90% of the roofs we install. While these shingles may look similar and offer comparable warranties, there are key differences to consider:

• Class 2 & Class 3 Shingles – Typically 2-tab or 3-tab shingles.
• Class 4 Shingles – Feature a rubberized base for better impact resistance. Upgrading to Class 4 can potentially save $800–$1,500 per year on insurance.
• Designer Shingles – A more premium option, costing 30–40% more but offering enhanced aesthetics.
• Stone-Coated Steel – A durable, long-lasting option that mimics the look of traditional roofing materials.
• Asphalt with Standing Seam Metal Accents – A stylish and practical combination gaining popularity.
