Alternative Roofing
Johnson County Roofing Co. specializes in alternative roofing. Handcrafted roofing tiles are an excellent option for someone who wants the look of conventional roofing materials such as wood shakes, slate, or ceramic tiles but with specific durability or appearance in mind.
Alternative roofing substances include clay, polymer, concrete, stone-coated metal, fiber, or a blend of fiberglass, slate dust, resin, or Pearlite. Human-made roofing materials can be more costly than natural roofing options, but the advantage is a wide variety of textures, colors, and shapes, as well as fire protection.
Manufactured slate is one of the most prevalent human-made roofing products, and is produced using a variety of various materials. While there are advantages to natural slate roofing, manufactured slate is lighter, easier to install, and doesn’t need some of the extra structural reinforcement that natural slate roofs require.
