Fiberglass Roofing


More from the Roofing and Gutters Gallery

Whether you are looking into re-roofing your house, putting on a patio roof, or building a greenhouse, fiberglass roofing materials could be the answer to what you are looking for to meet your needs.

Strength and Flexibility

Fiberglass roofing offers flexibility, malleability, and versatility that can match almost any type or style of roofing. It is usually bought in sheets or panels made of synthetically produced fine glass fibers. Panels are glazed, providing a superior waterproofing seal and a tough, durable membrane to your roof's structure. Fiberglass is highly resistant to corrosion and chemicals, is shatterproof, and will not rust, rot, or mildew.

Color and Installation

Fiberglass comes in an endless variety of colors that are dyed all the way through. With so many sizes and designs, fiberglass can imitate slate or tile and create a distinct pattern unique to your roof. Fiberglass is very easy to install due to its light weight. It requires little maintenance and is much cheaper than other types of roof paneling, yet it has a life expectancy of about 30 years.

Types of fiberglass roofing

Corrugated fiberglass roofing can be purchased in a heavy duty form that withstands high winds, heavy snow, and extreme outdoor temperatures. With interlocking between sheets, this type provides good water run-off. Choose this type of roofing depending on your style and the design of your roof. If you choose a transparent color, you can look right through the material to the sky. Perfect for skylights or just letting the starts shine through. These panels are also perfect for the greenhouse or the patio.

Asphalt shingles are the traditional fiberglass type roofing used today. Architectural or laminated shingles are made of multiple layers of fiberglass. This type can be used to create the appearance of wood or slate while being much cheaper than actual wood and slate.

The designs and possibilities of use for fiberglass roofing are improving constantly. Research your possibilities on the Internet and you may find that fiberglass is the best choice for your roof.
