Roofing Materials
When putting a roof together, there’s a complete system of products needed to get the job done correctly and ensure the success of your roofing installation. Depending on the style and slope of your project, product needs may vary.
A roofing system consists of the following:
1. A leak barrier (also known as an ice-and-water barrier)
2. Roof deck protection (organic or synthetic felt)
4. Asphalt shingles (durable, cost effective and available in a range of colors, making them a popular option)
5. Ridge vents or roof vents
6. Ridge cap shingles (hip and ridge shingles)
8. Drip edge
9. Roofing accessories (roofing nails, safety and fall protection, etc.)
Shingles
Shingles are the most popular type of roofing and have an advantage over panels because they’re easier and quicker to install. Shingles are economical and come ready to install. You can also replace individual shingles, making shingling a roof a great choice for many homeowners.
There are many different types of roof shingles, with asphalt being the most common material for residential homes. Roof shingle types include hip and ridge, architectural, 3-tab, and starter shingles. Roof shingle colors vary from light to dark. When considering which color you want your roof to be, remember that light colors reflect heat, while darker colors attract and retain heat.
Roof Panels
Metal roofing is durable, requires no maintenance and reflects heat. Metal roof panels are also lightweight and easy to install. Metal roof colors vary by material, which ranges from steel and aluminum to copper and zinc. A popular option is corrugated roof panels, which consist of interlocking metal sheets that form repeated waves or ridges. Other roof panel profiles include ribbed or standing seam. Standing seam offers the best protection from water leaks while providing enhanced curb appeal. Once installed, panels have either exposed fasteners or concealed fasteners.
Other panel materials include polycarbonate, plastic and steel. Polycarbonate roof panels are durable, lightweight and able to withstand extreme hot or cold temperatures. They’re also easy to cut and come in a variety of colors. Plastic roof panels are durable, flexible, and able to hold up in extreme weather and provide protection from ultraviolet rays. Steel roof panels are low maintenance, fire-resistant and able to reflect sunlight. The longevity of steel roof panels makes them a sound investment.
