A perfect roof resists very well in harsh weather conditions, but, at the same time, it contributes to increasing the curb appeal of the home. Roof tiles made of durable materials with excellent thermal properties are most often recommended by Dexter MI roofing companies. Here are a few examples:
Stone coated metal shingles
This type of shingles join together in a sealed system able to withstand extreme weather conditions. Each stone coated shingle is made of the best quality steel, protected and treated with AluZinc. On both sides of the shingle, it is applied a protective anti-corrosive layer, a primer and a dense acrylic layer. For better resistance and durability, natural stone granules are added and finished with a final layer of acrylic enamel.
The rock granulation on the top of metal shingles eliminate the noise produced by rain, which used to be one of the main inconvenients of a regular metal roof.
The weight of a stone coated metal shingle is about 80% lower than the weight of a concrete tile. Any project considering this roofing material will benefit from significant savings and consistent advantages, through the use of lightweight materials and structures.
Concrete tiles
Due to their density, concrete tiles are highly resistant to wind loads with speeds of up to 180 km/hour, as well as to temperature variations of 100º C. Another significant advantage is their maximum level of impermeability. Concrete tiles also withstand high snow and ice loads weighing up to 650 kilograms per square meter. No other roof covering has this strength. Not least they are one of the most long-lasting roofing materials existing on the market nowadays.
