  • Metal roofs are noisy in rain and hail

FAQs

 

What is wrong with clay roof tiles for villa in coastal areas?

Although low quality clay roof tiles absorb more water, but the fact is that villa roofing with clay tiles can easily absorb water of rain and snow. In this case you need to use membrane and reliable infrastructures. When clay roofs absorb water, they gain up to 15% more weight and this makes coastal house roofs heavier.

 

Is metal a good option in beach house roofing?

Although galvanized metal roofing has better resistance than uncoated metal sheets, rusting and corrosion can easily appear with the slightest scratch. This is due to bad installation or lack of care – which can lower the lifespan of roofs in seaside houses. But if you have to choose a metal material for your villa roof in humid areas, copper and aluminum roofing are better choices.

 

Why is UPVC the best roof choice for coastal homes?

UPVC sheets have complete overlapping and hydrophobic properties. The coatings are equipped with anti-corrosion and anti-UV material along with waterproof corpies and screws. These are the most important factors that have made UPVC covering suitable for villa roofing in coastal areas.
