Nebraska is a state that stretches both in the
Great Plains and in the Midwest and it is located on Tornado Alley, in the area
most frequently affected by huge storms. The state features two climate areas:
a humid continental area in the east and a semi-arid area in the west.
The roofs chosen for Nebraska homes need to be
able to withstand the weather conditions of the area and they need to be able
to resist the strongest storms as well. Here are some materials that can meet
all the requirements:
-
Metal – a great choice for any
region in the state, metal roofs are lightweight, but strong, durable and
resistant to any weather, even to hail, tornadoes and hurricanes, and the metal roofing contractors Omaha has are the best at installation;
-
Clay tiles – this traditional
material also stands strong in nasty weather, in rain and harsh sunshine, in
strong winds and hail. Clay tiles need professional installation to be as
durable as expected – nailing or otherwise fixing the tile takes knowledge and
experience;
-
Asphalt roofs – they are not
as durable as metal and clay, but if the shingles are properly fixed and
maintained, they make excellent solutions for Kansas roofs. They are also
available in impact-resistant varieties that can resist even the largest hail
stones.
