The Stan’dard Podcast Ep 30: Luxury vs. Budget Roofing: Can You Actually Tell the Difference?

Is the cheapest roof actually the most expensive mistake? In this episode of The STAN’dard, Liz puts Kevin to the test with a question every homeowner asks—but few get an honest answer to: 👉 Can an $8,000 roof really cost more than a $25,000 roof over 10 years? We break down luxury vs. budget roofing in a real-world, no-fluff torture test, comparing a premium roofing system (like DaVinci or Malarkey) against the classic “contractor special” asphalt shingle most homeowners are quoted. From the street, they might look the same. After heat, hail, water, repairs, insurance headaches, and energy bills? Not even close. What we cover in this episode: • Why cheap roof quotes are so tempting—and what’s not included • What “contractor special” actually means in real terms • Heat & UV exposure: why cheap shingles fail faster • Hail & impact resistance: why some claims get denied • Water, leaks, and why roofs fail after just 5–7 years • The 10-year cost breakdown that changes everything • Hidden costs homeowners never expect (stress, resale value, insurance fights) • The one question homeowners should ask instead of “What’s the cheapest roof?” 💡 Spoiler: The most expensive roof isn’t the premium one—it’s the one you have to replace twice. If you’re deciding between a low quote and a long-term investment, this episode could save you tens of thousands of dollars (and a lot of headaches). 👇 Drop your questions in the comments 👍 Like & subscribe for more real-talk home advice 🔔 New episodes weekly #Roofing #HomeImprovement #LuxuryVsBudget #RoofReplacement #ContractorAdvice #HomeCosts #TheSTANdard #RoofingTruth #HomeownerTips
