Stone-coated steel and metal tile
If your structure isn’t ready for slate or tile, stone-coated steel such as Decra, or a metal tile profile, gives you a similar look at a fraction of the weight.
“They did our Decra stone-coated steel shingle roof 10 years ago and it still shows no signs of wear. High winds and hail cause us no worries with this roof!”
