the cost of roofing

by on September 14, 2009

The cost of roofing continues to rise each and every month due to the cost of petroleum.The shingles are made from asphalt which is furnished by OPEC. The shingle manufacturers keep passing on the cost to the roofing contractor passes it on to the customer. We have tried many times to correct the cost of price gouging. There is very little relief now that the cost of the roofing material is in OPEC’s hands. we will continue to provide roofing services at a great value, but the cost of material will surely increase the cost of the complete roof installation.

There are companies that are inventing shingles that are made from polymers. Hopefully this will give us an alternative to the asphalt shingle as we know it today. No one can be for sure, but we should see the new shingles in the next five years. Although Home Depot has denied any involvement with the new shingle Corporation’s production of the polymer shingle, we hope that they are for cost of roof installations will be lowered.
