Cement Roofing


More from the Roofing and Gutters Gallery

Is your style of house Asian like that of a Chinese temple or Southwestern like a Spanish Mission? Needing to re-roof your house and not sure what type of materials you should choose to fit your style? Builders and homeowners alike love the classic beauty of cement roof tiles and shingles, also called concrete, because of their striking quality.

Roofing Make Up

These composite materials come in an array of colors, designs, and textures and are made from wood fibers, sand, clay, and cement. Some are coated with plastics, enamels, or metals and some are made with recycled materials.

Shingles or Tiles?

With two basic types of fiber-cement roofing materials, shingles and tiles, the shingles can simulate wood shakes and are lighter weight than tiles. Both types provide durability and resource efficiency that makes them a good choice. Experts recommend installation with a high rating of Class A for fire resistance and have proved to be stable, thus carrying a 50+ year warranty.

Drawbacks and Strengths

The biggest drawback to this type of roofing is that extreme cold climates can have a very negative effect on the material, making it a less likely choice for northern regions. But it is resistant to moisture, rot, and buckling and does well in most harsh weather conditions.

Remember that cement roofing is low maintenance and will increase your home's resale value. Add those positive qualities to fire resistance, energy efficiency, and pest resistance, and cement roofing will likely be a top choice for your home.
