Stone Coated Metal ShinglesStone Coated RoofingTwo Rivers Bank - Decra Stone Coated Shingle

These shingles give your home a rich bold appearance of a heavyweight shingle at a fraction of the weight.  They are made of zinc/aluminum alloy coated steel with an acrylic bonded stoned chip finish.  The stone coating resists fading and UV penetration.  They are low maintenance, have long life expectancy, and have the highest rating available for impact resistance.  They will not crack, break, burn, curl, split, or rot and generally come with a 50 year limited warranty and a 120 mph wind resistance warranty.

Wood Shingles / Wood ShakesWood Shingles Wood ShakesMelotz Residence - Wood Shake

Wood Shingles are sawn from wood blocks; are tapered and generally have a relatively smooth surface. They have a more finished appearance than heavier wood shakes.
 
Wood Shakes are split from wood blocks; they are less uniform in thickness than shingles, are sometimes grooved, and frequently have little taper. Shakes may be split and then sawn (from top-edge corner to opposite bottom-edge corner) to provide taper as well as a relatively flat side, which is turned away from the weather during installation. Shakes have a rustic appearance. Both shingles and shakes can be used on sidewalls as well as roofs.

Slate & Tile
Slate and Tile
Slate roofing
Slate is a natural product that comes out of the ground and can safely go back into the ground. This material is elegant, unusual, and very heavy. Slate roofs are one of the most fireproof roofs and are much more wind resistant than asphalt roofs. Slate roofs also do not rely on the underlying roofing felt to remain leak proof the way many clay and concrete tile roofs do.

Slate has been the material of choice for a large percentage of the most important buildings built in the last five centuries. The method of installation has changed little over five centuries. Since slate roofs are installed by craftsmen who are thinking in service life of decades, they are usually installed with great care. As a result, the quality of leak protection is much higher. Thus slate roofs leak much less often than other kinds of roofing-especially on houses with complicated roof lines. Your rafters may need to be reinforced if you choose slate. It is a more expensive choice, but it can also last 100 years or more.

Clay tile roofing
Clay tile is produced by baking molded clay into tile. The density of the clay is determined by the length of time and temperature at which it is heated. Tiles may be glazed and also may have surface texture treatments applied. As a result there are a wide variety of tile profiles, styles, finishes and colors available. In addition, each tile may have separete field, ridge, hip, gable and terminal tiles of various shapes. Installation methods depend on the nature of the tile being installed; that is, whether it is two piece, one piece, interlocking or flat.Dana College Administration Bldg - Ludowici Tile
