Metal for the roof is also very popular, since it lasts a long time-50-100 years. In addition, the metal roof protects from snow.

Cedar tiles are quite beautiful and, moreover, has a service life of 50-100 years, this also makes it in demand.

A good option is flexible tiles, its advantage is the ease of installation.

They look very good and with good care have a long service life of ceramic tiles, as well as cement-sand, asbestos-cement and slate tiles.

The cost of materials

Roofs from bituminous sheets, as well as rubber sheets are also widespread now. In the second case, the installation is cold.

An important point is the cost of materials for the roof and installation. The cheapest material is a roofing material, then there is a cedar tile. A little more expensive – a metal roof, which in turn will cost more profitable than ceramic and other types of tiles. It will be more expensive to install a complex roofing structure.

The most expensive types of roofing materials are ceramic tiles, slate and concrete tiles. Their price is from 1000 dollars. per unit area. In addition, to install such a fairly heavy roof, more durable rafters will be required.

Many owners mount the roof roof on their own. If you also plan to do this, you need to follow the following rules. Firstly, the new tile can be applied to the layer of the old, but maximum 3 layers. Secondly, when cleaning the old tiles, it is necessary to remove all the tiles, cardboard and nails. In addition, you need to check the coating of the roof for damage and, if any, replace these areas.

It is necessary to attach coatings to the rafters using nails 8.9 cm long, placing nails after 20 cm.

When installing the roof, you should move from the base of the roof towards the top and install the coating so that the new sheet covers the previous one by about 76 millimeters. After that, a galvanized apron is nailed with nails around the entire perimeter of the roof. Attach tiles with brackets or nail it, moving from the base to the upper part of the roof.

All seams after laying the tiles should be located symmetrically.

Then you need to make grooves. In order to install them correctly, first you need to nail the block of metal in the center of the fan, then install the tile on top of the bar.

During the installation of the material, the air temperature should be at least 4 degrees, since at this temperature, the mastic can gain a well well. It is better if the temperature during the roof of the roof will be from 10 to 16 degrees.
