Durable Roofing Products
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.
