WBC Homes Reveals The Three Best Roofing Materials

April 23, 2018 Corey

Roofing in California is a precarious business. All along the West Coast, in cities such as Santa Monica, Los Angeles, Malibu, and Burbank, people have to deal with the strong Santa Ana winds and the frequent wildfires. This is why roofing services such as WBC Homes (West Coast Better Homes), who also offer windows and patio coverings according to their videos and portfolio, must focus on using appropriate materials in their work. So, what are the top roofing materials to use?

WBC Homes on Good Roofing Materials

The first excellent roofing material is asphalt. This is used to make both fiberglass and paper shingles, rendering them durable and weatherproof. These shingles are coated with a type of ceramic granule, which makes them far more resistant to UV light. It also helps to stop algae growth. An added benefit is that homeowners can choose the colors that they like. Of key importance is that it is installed properly and sealed, as it will otherwise start to leak and it won’t last that long.

The second option is to use tiles, made from slate, concrete, or clay. These create classy looking roofs and are generally found on older properties although upscale new homes also centre favourite hymns period the red Spanish tiles, which are more traditional and rugged, are particularly popular. However mission tiles, European tiles, French tiles, or slate tiles that look just like shingles, can also be used.  Tiles are particularly popular in California comma as they not only look elegant, they are also very resistant to UV rays and offer great fire protection.

Last but not least, there is metal.  A lot of people choose not to have metal roofing because they think it is very expensive. Indeed, you will pay the same for tiles or cedar shakes. However comma metal roofs do not have any maintenance costs associated with them and they tend to come with a 30 to 50 year warranty, far longer than shakes or tiles. Additionally, metal can be fashioned to look like any other material, including slate, tiles, shakes, and shingles. Plus, they come in any color people like and the color will never have to be redone. Someone who chooses metal roofs does have to make sure that the materials are brand new. In the past, copper would be used for metal roofs because it does not corrode and lasts a lifetime. However, other metals now have excellent coatings that allow them to last just as long.

If you require a new roof, and you are assessing which roofing material to use, you need to consider both your short and long-term investment. Naturally, you also have to consider what your home will look like. You always have the option of choosing a green roof, although regulations in California for these roofs are particularly stringent. Make sure therefore, that you discuss your options with a professional roofing company who can make sure you find the most suitable solution for your needs.
