ToggleAsphalt Roofing
Asphalt roofing is by far the most popular roofing choice for homeowners in Manitoba. With proper installation and high-quality materials, an asphalt roof can last for many years and will require minimal maintenance. It is also the most cost-effective option, comes in a variety of colours and styles and will protect your home from wind, rain, snow and sleet.
Rubber Roofing
Oakwood Roofing offers many choices in rubber and composite roofing, including Enviroshake and Euroshield. This rubber roofing material mimics the look of real cedar or slate roofs and comes in a range of colours, sizes and textures. Rubber roofing is resistant to mold, mildew and insects. It can stand up to hail and will not crack, rot, warp or peel. Rubber roofing is also resistant to damage from the freeze-thaw conditions we have in Canada, making it virtually maintenance free! Made of 95% recycled materials, this eco-friendly option is a smart investment for your home and the environment.
Cedar Roofing
Cedar wood roofing, either shakes or shingles, can give your home an attractive, natural look. Wooden shakes are a sustainable and environmentally friendly material that offers both durability and energy efficiency for your home. Homeowners should consider the maintenance required with shake roofing, as regular maintenance is necessary to prevent moss, mold and mildew growth, especially in more temperate or humid climates. They are a more expensive option compared to typical asphalt shingles, but the beautiful aesthetic appeal provides a higher return on investment.
