Both provide a durable covering that will protect your house for many years to come. Although shingles are usually the more popular choice, there are several unique benefits that a tile roof has to offer. **Durability** When it comes to long-term durability, there’s no beating tile roofs. Their thickness and solid construction help them withstand the elements. When you have a new tile roof installed on your home, you will be enjoying that roof for a very long time. With proper care, a tile roof can last 50 to 100 years. Tile roofs are more expensive than shingles, but the good news is that when you break it down, the cost of installing and maintaining both types of roofing materials works out to be roughly the same. So, the decision really comes down to your exterior styling preferences and whether you would rather invest the money upfront or spread out the costs over time. **Weather Resistance** Tile roofs are frequently recognized for their functionality in colder climates. Their density and strength withstand freezing temperatures and snowfall beautifully, making them the preferred choice in regions that deal with these weather conditions. That said, tile roofs are also great for warm weather. A [roofing contractor](https://www.firstqualityroof.com/roof-replacement/) in Las Vegas will often recommend tile roofs because the materials used are very heat-resistant. Because it absorbs less heat from the sun, a tile roof helps keep the inside of the home cooler, which can lead to reduced energy costs to keep your house cool. **Style** Many people love the classic look of shingle roofs, but if you are looking for a way to make your home stand out, a tile roof is sure to catch people’s eyes. They are often associated with Spanish and Mediterranean style, but are versatile enough to work with a wide variety of exterior designs. ## **Contact a Roofing Contractor at First Quality Roofing & Insulation** [Contact a **roofing contractor**](https://www.firstqualityroof.com/contact-us) at First Quality Roofing & Insulation at 702-262-7847 to discuss your roofing options and schedule an on-site inspection.
