Composite Roof to The Basics

Each material offers a different appearance, some are even coated in asphalt to improve their UV and water resistance.

The benefit is that the large sheets make installation a fast and effective process, saving time and energy.

Sometimes when installation is finished, this material can be made to look like shingles, wood or even slate. There are so many colors, shapes and styles to choose from, enabling this material to be used on most homes.

Composite Roofing to Advantages


Energy Efficiency

Depending on where the property is located, a composite roof can offer exceptional energy efficiency. In colder climates, the roof will retain the heat reducing heating bills and in warmer climate is can reduce the amount spent on cooling. In warmer climates most homeowners choose a lighter colored composite roof and incorporate good insulation to reduce the heat entering the home and helping keep the property cool.


Maintenance Free

Composite roofing doesn't require a lot of maintenance, if any. In most cases the only maintenance required is to remove algae that is building up on the roof by using a chemical solution. Taking the time to remove leaves and sweeping can eliminate the amount of algae. Composite roofs are not safe from storms, so it's always advisable to inspect the roof after a storm to ensure there is no damage.


Affordable

A composite roof including installation is a cost effective roofing solution. Those that live in areas that are prone to fires and hurricanes may find that they will need to pay for repairs from time to time due to any damage caused.


Warranty

In most cases a homeowner looking at a composite roof for their property can expect a warranty up to fifty years, in some cases. There are even some companies offering lifetime warranties because the material is so durable and can last such a long time. Before the material is sold it is usually tested for fire and hurricane winds, ensuring it is safe to be used.
