Impact-resistant roofing can provide Louisianans with both more protection and long-term savings

Louisianans who are looking to replace their roof—such as after a storm—might want to look at impact-resistant shingles. That’s according to Kevin Gamble, of “State Farm”… “The average lifespan of some roofs is 20 years. But, in areas that are prone to severe weather, they might need to be replaced every seven to 10 years. Impact-resistant shingles provide a stronger, safer, and more-durable roof: They reduce the risk of hail-, wind-, and interior water-damage. Plus, most provide additional protection against fire.” Gamble adds that impact-resistant shingles might also provide long-term savings… “While they may cost more than traditional shingles, consider the reduced likelihood for damage—and the potentially lower repair-costs. You might even qualify for a discount on your homeowners-insurance. In fact, Louisiana is one of the states where a discount is available from ‘State Farm’, for using impact-resistant roofing.” To learn more, visit “state-farm”-dot-com.
