Architectural & traditional profiles

Asphalt shingles

A familiar roof with a wide range of colors and profiles. Compare the exact shingle, the accessories and the complete installation.

Architectural shingles create a layered appearance; traditional three-tab shingles have a flatter, repeated pattern.
Compare the selected product’s wind and impact ratings, color availability and written warranty.

Clean lines & distinctive profiles

Metal roofing

From standing seam to tile-shaped steel, metal offers several very different roof styles. Start with the profile that suits the building.

Compare standing seam, exposed-fastener panels and stone-coated steel as different systems.
Discuss the substrate, fasteners, finish, flashing and roof slope together.

Which metal profile fits?

Standing seam: raised seams create long, clean roof lines.

R-panel & corrugated: ribbed profiles with their own fastening and maintenance requirements.

Stone-coated steel: a textured metal roof that can resemble tile. It is a different material from clay or concrete tile.

Texture, character & a fired-clay finish

Clay & ceramic tile

The terracotta look is only the beginning. Tile roofing brings distinctive shapes and surface texture, with the roof underneath playing an essential role.

Check structural suitability, underlayment, flashing and drainage before choosing a tile system.
For repairs, compare replacement tile availability and the condition beneath the damaged area.

What should be in the proposal?

Identify the tile material, profile, color, attachment method and underlayment. Confirm how valleys, edges and penetrations will be detailed. Clay, ceramic and metal tile-look systems should not be treated as interchangeable.

Real stone. Individual character.

Natural slate

A natural-stone roofing option included in our original commercial materials offering. Selection begins with the building and the proposed installation.

Assess the structure and the weight of the complete assembly.
Compare slate dimensions, thickness, attachment and flashing details; confirm specialist installation scope.

Plan around the whole assembly

Ask how the proposed slate will be sourced and matched, how roof access will be managed, and what repair and maintenance records you will receive. Confirm availability and suitability for your specific property.

Discuss a slate roof

TPO · PVC · EPDM

Single-ply roofing

For commercial low-slope roofs, the membrane is part of a system that includes insulation, attachment, seams, flashing and drainage.

Compare TPO, PVC and EPDM against the building’s use and existing roof conditions.
Specify insulation, attachment, penetrations, drainage and the inspection scope in writing.

Three membrane families

TPO & PVC: thermoplastic membrane systems with welded seams.

EPDM: a rubber membrane system with its own seam and attachment methods.

The right specification depends on the property. The cutaway shows a white membrane assembly; it is not a specification for every TPO, PVC or EPDM system.

Make the comparison count

A material is a starting point.
A written scope is the plan.

Bring your preferred look and your property details. Compare the roof condition, structure, installation, complete price and written coverage before deciding.

What does an impact rating tell me?

An impact rating describes performance under a specified laboratory test. It does not make a shingle hail-proof or guarantee insurance coverage, a premium discount, or the performance of the entire installed roof. Compare the exact product, color, installation requirements, and current manufacturer warranty before choosing.
