About Aluminum Roofing

SERVING THE GREATER HOUSTON AREA

Rustic shake is a type of roofing that has been used for many decades. The shakes are typically made out of red cedar or cypress wood, and they can be hand-split, machine-cut, pneumatic driven, or even laser cut. It should also be noted that the size determines whether it's classified as a shake or a shingle. The most common size is one inch by four inches, with an average length of 24 to 36 inches.

The rustic aluminum shake has been in production the longest of all scratches. It is one of the first types of aluminum roofs in the market and is still a customer favorite. With a rustic aluminum shake, homeowners can realistically get a wood shake-like appearance with the same wood grain texture. Another attractive feature of aluminum roofing is its four-way interlocking and non-exposed or hidden fastener system, making it beautiful and more durable. 

The Great American Shake in roofing is a product that has been created to take the burden of ice and snow off roofs. The shake can be assembled quickly, which makes it more useful during heavy storms or severe weather events. It doesn't require any nails, screws, or glue for assembly; just snap together the pieces, and you're good to go.

The shake is made of a lightweight and durable vinyl material that resists UV rays from the sun as well as moisture, which can make it last for up to 30-50 years. This roof can also be installed over existing roofs and does not require any additional support structures for installation like rafters or beams, which saves time on installation.

Classic's Oxford roofing systems are a perfect solution for those looking to mimic the look of genuine slate or shake shingle but with all the benefits that aluminum provides. The panels interlock tightly, and you won't find any visible fasteners on them either - making these roofs sturdy and durable in whatever weather conditions they're faced with. Classic also offers their PVDF coating from Valspar which is applied using an exclusive print process that enhances every three-dimensional detail of each panel giving it an authentic stone effect while at once showcasing its natural beauty.

Aluminum roofing is 95% recycled aluminum. The benefits of these roofs include high recycled content, recyclable and durable material.



Aluminum Shake can be installed over an existing composition roof with minimal removal, which saves on material disposal. Should your construction necessitate the removal of the existing roof, our Houston-based recycling partner will recycle it into reusable materials.

Warranty Information

It is essential to purchase items that have warranties to feel safe in our purchases and not worry about an item breaking soon after getting it. We need to investigate the different types of warranties, such as whether they cover wear-and-tear or just manufacturer defects. However, even with these safeguards, there are still cases where people will buy a new product when something breaks instead of fixing what's broken; this has become more common due to how quickly things break nowadays! 

This idea may also be applied while buying homes because many homeowners end up installing cheaper materials like asphalt shingles for roofs rather than pricier building materials over time without realizing their downfall until too late - especially during snow season, which often leads them to buy new roofs and wasting a lot of money.

Shield Roofing and Sheet Metal offers warranty coverage depending on the product you purchased. Our team can assure you that even though roofs take time before they get fully protectively sealed, aluminum roofs are strong and durable; never seen as "expensive" but rather necessary investments towards protecting your home and your family.
