Iowa Slate Roofing Professionals
Slate is a roofing material that’s been used to build castles and churches for hundreds of years. Even with the modern materials available, slate remains one of Iowa’s most popular choices when it comes time purchase your next home. For over 100 years now we’ve worked tirelessly so you can enjoy our top-quality products without worry about cost or durability, after all no matter what happens in life there will always be an answer at last call — Slates are just waiting around each corner.
Advantages of Using Slate Roofs For Your Iowa Home
● Durability of Slate Roofs
The durability of slate is one the main advantages it offers. With naturally occurring stones, roofs made up primarily from this material can withstand all kinds weather conditions Iowa throws at them without fail, even those that would otherwise wear down other types or construction materials over time. It’s estimated these homogenous metamorphic rocks were created thousands – maybe even millions-of years ago. For good measure, they’re also highly resistant to corrosion making sure your investment will last 75 to 100 years.
● Aesthetics of Slate Roofs
When it comes to aesthetics, there is no competition. Slate’s texture and color are highly attractive in the eyes of many homeowners who have chosen this roofing material over other options like plastic or shingle roofs with their higher labor costs associated (in addition). You can get a wide variety of colors depending on your taste: green, black – but most often than not they will be grey because that suits almost every house perfectly. If you aren’t satisfied with its natural shade then feel free to dye yours into any pattern-style portrayal desired.
● Safety of Slate Roofs
Have you ever been worried about your house catching fire? If so, then Slate is an excellent roofing solution. Natural stones do not burn and only under very high temperatures can crack, furthermore it’s non-conductive which means electricity won’t pass through it either.
● Insulation of Slate Roofs
Slate can keep your home cool and comfortable in hot weather, or warm during winter. It does this by blocking interior temperatures from fluctuations outside of the house- meaning you’ll save on electricity bills. In addition to its ability as an insulation material for homes with flat roofs (which slate also happens), there are other benefits such like reducing noise pollution due to strong architectural features that come along side these roofing types.
Disadvantages of Using Slate Roof
● Weight of Slate Roofs
Slate is a tough material, which is why it requires strong reinforcement to support its weight.
● Impact resistance of Slate Roofs
The durability of the slate is remarkable, and it can resist impacts from hailstones. Anything larger or heavier than hail will cause damage though.
● Installation Problem with Slate Roofs
Slate roofing requires a specific type of contractor to install it properly. If you’re looking for Iowa contractors that specialize in slate, then this is the right place.
