Roofing Materials

Roofing material is a broad term referring to the outermost layer on the roof of a building. This doesn't just mean the tiles or roofing sheets, but also any roof vents and windows, roofing membranes for damp proofing the property, guttering, and any other accessories such as disk rivets and flashing sealant used in the securing and finishing of a roofs structure.

We have a whole host of products ideal for creating pitched or flat roofs for residential or commercial buildings, as well as simpler corrugated or flat polycarbonate sheeting which is perfect for structures like bicycle sheds, garages, and garden canopies.

Whatever project you have in mind, you will find all the essential parts within the categories below. Our Redland Rosemary Clay Roof Tiles, which are rigorously tested and suit any build, are a particular favourite, as is the Tecsound SY100 roofing membrane which reduces the impact that airborne noise and vibrations have inside a building perfect for homes under a flight path.

A good roof will last for decades, and, with some care and attention when required, can last hundreds of years. The simple requirement anyone wants from a roof is for it to provide shelter from the elements. Additionally, you might also want it to help insulate your home acoustically and thermally. Whatever the exact functions youd like from a roof, choosing the correct products for your build will assure that you can achieve a long-lasting finish.

Roofing Materials 

Roofing is the most important part of your home that protects it from rain, snow and sun. It also affects how you can enter into a room or what kind of furniture will be there for protection against natural elements like wind chill factors which could lower temperatures inside during winter months if not taken care off quickly enough with proper roof maintenance in advance. 

The most common roof shapes are: gable, hip, flat and shed. The most common roofing materials are asphalt shingles, wood shingles, metal and slate. 

The gable roof is a common type of roof found on homes, commercial buildings and public spaces. A disadvantage to this structure would be that water can sometimes accumulate if it isn't drained properly or screens are not installed correctly; but with proper installation these issues won’t arise! 

Metal roofs offer an interesting alternative when compared with other types like asphalt shingle which tend to withstand high winds due its design elements such as wide lap joint construction (which allows more airflow) alongside deep wave channels located at curbstones where they connect into houses' walls.

There are various types of roofing Materials such as: 

  • Roof Tiles
  • Roofing Sheets 
  • Roof Windows 
  • Guttering 
  • Fascia & Soffits
  • Roof Vents
  • Roofing Accessories
  • Roofing Membranes
  • These roof materials are further categorised into subparts.

Roof sheets

There are many types of roofing material that have been used for centuries, but new options have come onto the scene in recent years. 

Some popular roof are Polycarbonate roof, PVC roof or bitumen roof.

Plastic and metal are the two most common types of roof sheet. Plastic roof sheets includes polycarbonate, acrylic and PVC variants. Metal roofs are usually made from steel or zinc but they can also be coated in stone granules to give them more character! 

Polycarbonate roof sheets are the perfect roofing material for greenhouses, verandas and carports. It offers great transparency so you can see what's going on outside without having any insulation or other coverings blocking your views!

Metal roof sheets are incredibly durable. A testament to this is the fact that some church roofs have stainless steel, which stands up better against weathering and corrosion than plastic! Metal also looks more traditional for flat-roofed homes and they are also used for metal guttering - but if you want an interesting update on your home's exterior design? Go with one made of mixed materials like gutter systems paired alongside sturdy aluminium cladding in order to get all sortsa trendy angles while still keeping things classic at heart.

Pitched Roof Windows

The pitched roof is a great way to provide ventilation and keep your building cooler in hot climates. It also helps shed snow, ice or other heavy precipitation more effectively than flat roofs do! 

If you live in a cold climate basket, where snow and ice are common, then it's likely your home would have pitched roof windows. These types of roofing provide better coverage against these weather trends because they shed their excess moisture more easily - which can make all the difference when there is no natural light shining verge through! Pitched roofs also help create space inside buildings like attics or lofts by the mechanism known as “s Billboard.”
