Roofing is a broad term that encompasses a number of different tasks that are performed to support the roof of a structure. Roofing is the covering on top of a structure, which includes all structures and materials needed to support it, on top of the buildings walls, or on uprights. Roofing is also an aesthetic feature, used to complement a structure’s style. In addition, a roofing service can be required to inspect, repair, and maintain the roof of your home.

Types of Roofing

The roofing system components that make up a quality roofing system are concrete, shingles, tiles, felt, and wood. The concrete is used as a base to which various other materials can be added. These may include wood shakes for aesthetic appeal, fireproofing, insulation, and various types of resins. When properly installed, a quality roofing system is designed to last for many years.

A typical installation would consist of four to six layers. First the concrete would be built up and poured. Next, the concrete would be mixed with various chemical additives to allow for the desired qualities to be added. Then a series of two layers of asphalt shingles would be installed to create the protective coating. Finally, top quality tar and gravel would be added to provide a smooth surface for walking on, as well as to act as a barrier against natural elements, such as rain or sun, to keep your roof safe and secure.
