Tile Roofs Made of Metal?
Lindsay ~ 20 February 2006
So, you like the look of a traditional tile roof, but you’re worried about how it will hold up over time (ok, even if you’re not, let’s pretend you are). Decra Tile from Decra Roofing Systems is designed to look like traditional tile products, but it’s not made from the clay often used in southwestern style roofs. Composed of a zinc/aluminum alloy steel that’s coated with an acrylic bonded stone chip finish, Decra Tiles are lighter weight and more durable, according to the company. Decra promises you can walk on the low maintenance roof, and it won’t crack, curl, burn, split, or rot, even after years of being exposed to the elements.
