Nebraska’s varied climate may include periods of drought,
increasing heat and also severe storms. All these require a solid roof above
your head, therefore people tend to choose durable roofing materials. They are
more expensive than common materials, but protecting your home and/ or business
should be a priority that will actually save you money for repairs, in the long
run.
Let`s take a look at the advantages of different types of
durable roofing materials.
Metal roof
Metal roofs can be made from different types of metal, steel
(often coated with aluminum) being the most common. A steel roof is made to
last up to 100 years and resist in all kind of weather conditions and is used most in commercial roofing Omaha is home to. It is
waterproof, fire proof, reflective, recyclable and energy-efficient, requiring
minimum maintenance.
Clay roof
Ceramic shingles are still one of the most durable roofing
options that also provide a great architectural appeal. They are made to resist
in very bad weather, but they require regular maintenance.
Slate roof
Slate is probably the most durable roofing material, being
made from rocks cut into roofing tiles. A slate roof is designed to last more
than 100 years. Being a natural material, slate does not negatively affect the
environment, and its production process does not produce toxic chemicals.
