The Next Big Roofing Trend Sounds Exciting – Until A Storm Blows In

Residential Roofing: Why “Tried-And-True”
Beats “Trendy And New” – EVERY Time

Brinkmann’s Time-Tested Products Provide
Lasting Results – Not A Flashy Mess

It’s not exactly a secret that new roofing products hit the market every year. But if you want Houston Area residential roofing that lasts, you stick to what you KNOW will work. And that’s exactly what we do at Brinkmann Quality Roofing Services.

But, you might say, that’s so old-fashioned!

Exactly. And that’s why we can back our work with absolute certainty.

We don’t jump on the bandwagon when every new roofing trend drops (there’s even rubber roofing – something we’ve already started to see issues with).

Instead, our roofing products are proven – time and time again – to work and perform as they should. Our fortified roofing has proven to resist wind and storm damage. Our standing seam metal roofing seals out water and withstands hurricane-level wind and debris. Our GAF asphalt shingles are built to last – and, more often than not, they do.

Remember the staying power of rock-n-roll, even when disco was projected to be the future of music?

Like your old bellbottoms gathering dust in your attic, roofing trends come and go – but proven excellence is timeless.

Trends: Perfect For Hair & Music, Not For Roofs

Trends are fine for hairstyles, clothing, and music because they don’t necessarily have disastrous effects (though, try saying that to our seventh-grade class photo).

With roofing, however, trends are best left alone.

Why?

Because what you put on your roof today needs to last tomorrow, next week, next year, and decades down the road (maybe longer, depending on the material).

So, if you’re putting the most new-fangled material on your roof, how do you know it’ll last? If it’s only been on the market for a few years, how do you know it’ll be in the same condition in ten years?

The worst part? Often, the company that manufactured it doesn’t know, either.

This puts homeowners at a huge disadvantage, one that renders warranties useless if the materials don’t perform as expected. That leaves the homeowners with NO guarantees – and left cleaning up the mess when “the next great thing” turns out to be worthless.

Tried-And-True Residential Roofing Materials

At Brinkmann Quality Roofing Services, we’re proud to offer materials that can handle Texas weather in ALL its seasons.

Our standing seam metal roofing stands up beautifully even under battering hail, and our GAF asphalt shingles are engineered to resist wind damage. Tile roofing is a strong and beautiful addition to any home. And who can forget about the endless benefits of our fortified roofing?

All of these services and materials were new at one point. But here’s what differentiates them from the new trends, like solar shingles and rubber roofing: they have decades of proven performance behind them.

Some trends, we hope, will stick around. But time and further research will tell. In the meantime, Brinkmann Quality Roofing Services only uses proven methods and materials.

At Brinkmann, We Back Only What Works

We’re clear about our standards at Brinkmann Quality Roofing Services. For us to guarantee our roofing materials and systems, they have to perform over a long period of time against anything the Texas weather can throw at them.

We don’t often have the flashiest new materials and technology to boast about. However, we ARE able to make promises to Houston Area homeowners that we KNOW we can keep.

And that’s worth more than gold to us.

If you want your Houston Area residential roofing to give you peace of mind for years to come, call Brinkmann Quality Roofing Services to get started. You’ll be happy you did!
