Roofing Materials & Systems in Houston, TX
Durable Roofing Options for Houston Homes
When installing a new roof in Houston, the material you choose is just as important as the quality of installation. At JM Roofing, we provide a wide range of roofing materials designed to meet the challenges of Houston’s climate. From cost-effective asphalt shingles to premium tile and slate, as well as flat roofing systems like modified bitumen and TPO, our team delivers customized solutions that enhance both durability and performance.
Asphalt Shingles: Architectural and Designer Styles
Asphalt shingles remain the most popular residential roofing option in Houston. Architectural and designer shingles offer more depth and dimension than traditional three-tab shingles, giving your home a polished appearance while improving strength against wind and rain.
Advantages of Architectural Shingles
These shingles are built with multiple layers, which means greater durability and resistance to Houston’s frequent storms. Homeowners also benefit from a wide selection of colors and textures that complement different architectural styles.
Designer Shingle Options
For those who want a more high-end look without the cost of premium materials, designer shingles mimic the appearance of slate or wood shakes while maintaining the affordability and resilience of asphalt.
Radiant Barrier and Attic Energy Add-Ons
With Houston’s intense summer heat, energy efficiency is a priority for many homeowners. JM Roofinginstalls radiant barrier underlayment and attic ventilation systems designed to reduce heat absorption and improve indoor comfort.
Radiant Barrier Installation
A radiant barrier reflects heat away from the home, keeping attic temperatures lower and reducing strain on cooling systems.
Attic Ventilation and Insulation
Proper airflow in the attic not only prevents heat buildup but also protects the roofing structure from moisture damage, extending the life of your system.
Tile Roofing Systems
Tile roofing is a timeless choice for Houston homeowners seeking both beauty and longevity. Clay and concrete tiles are known for their ability to resist fire, pests, and extreme weather while maintaining their appearance for decades.
Classic Appeal with Lasting Strength
Tile roofing adds architectural character and increases curb appeal. Its weight provides natural resistance to high winds, making it well suited for Houston’s storm season.
Slate Roofing
Systems
Slate is considered one of the most premium roofing materials available. Its natural stone composition provides unmatched durability, with lifespans that often exceed a century when properly maintained.
Benefits of Slate Roofing
Slate offers natural beauty with unique color variations, giving each home a custom look. Beyond aesthetics, slate is incredibly resistant to water and fire, making it an investment in long-term protection.
Modified Bitumen and TPO Roofing for Low-Slope Applications
Not all residential roofs are steeply pitched. For low-slope or flat sections of a home, JM Roofing
installs proven systems like modified bitumen and TPO to provide dependable waterproofing and energy performance.
Modified Bitumen Roofing
Modified bitumen, often applied with torch-down or self-adhered techniques, offers excellent waterproofing and durability. Its layered design helps resist punctures and heavy rainfall.
TPO Roofing
Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO) is a single-ply membrane known for its reflective properties. In Houston, where temperatures climb quickly, TPO helps keep interiors cooler and lowers energy costs.
