Metro Atlanta Roofing Options

There are a number of things to consider when selecting a new roof system. Of course, cost and durability head the list, but aesthetics and architectural style are important, too. The right roof system for your home or building is one that balances these five considerations. The following roofing products commonly are used for steep-slope structures.

Asphalt shingles possess an overwhelming share of the U.S. steep-slope roofing market and can be reinforced with organic or fiberglass materials. Although asphalt shingles reinforced with organic felts have been around much longer, fiberglass-reinforced products now dominate the market.

• Organic shingles consist of a cellulose-fiber (i.e., wood) base that is saturated with asphalt and coated with colored mineral granules.
• Fiberglass shingles consist of a fiberglass mat, top-and-bottom layers of asphalt, and mineral granules.

Asphalt shingles' fire resistances, like most other roofing materials, are categorized by Class A, B or C. Class A signifies the most fire-resistant; Classes B and C denote less fire resistance. Generally, most fiberglass shingles have Class A fire ratings, and most organic shingles have Class C ratings.

A shingle's reinforcement has little effect on its appearance. Organic and fiberglass products are available in laminated (architectural) grades that offer a textured appearance. Zinc or copper-coated ceramic granules also can be applied to organic or fiberglass products to protect against algae attack, a common problem in warm, humid parts of the United States. Both types of shingles also are available in a variety of colors.

Regardless of their reinforcing type and appearance, asphalt shingles' physical characteristics vary significantly. When installing asphalt shingles, NRCA recommends use of shingles that comply with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards-ASTM D 225 for organic shingles and ASTM D 3462 for fiberglass shingles. These standards govern the composition and physical properties of asphalt shingles; not all asphalt shingles on the market comply with these standards. If a shingle product complies with one of these standards, it is typically noted in the manufacturer's product literature and on the package wrapper.

 Tile Roofs

 

There are a number of different materials that homeowners may choose from when selecting tile roofs.

The first area of concern should be your overall budget. You'll find that tile roofs are versatile and durable and are a great roofing option.

However, with all of that variety, there is a wide price range to choose from as well. When considering budget options for tile roofs, you should take into consideration the projected cost of maintenance and care to keep your roof in perfect order.

• Some of the most popular tile roofs include clay tiles, cement, Spanish tile, steel, wood, aluminum, and slate. Vanderbuilders can show you many different samples and help you determine which roofing tile is best for your roofing needs. It is always good to choose tiles that will withstand the natural elements in your particular location.

•  It is important to realize that just as important as the type of tile roof you select is the  underlayment that you install before the roof. Tile roofs serve to keep your home safe and protected from the elements of nature. The underlayment is the supportive structure that keeps your roof waterproof.

They look just like real slate or cedar shake and come in a wide variety of colors, thicknesses, blends and widths. In addition, composite slate offers homeowners up to 25% cost savings over genuine slate.

 

A composite roof is estimated to last 50+ years.
