Choose a metal tile for the roof: what to take into account

Problems, «where to get a metal tile» is not for a long time. It was replaced by the problem: «Which metal tile to choose». No one will give a universal answer here. You will choose yourself. But there are moments that we advise you to take into account the larger the thickness and height of the metal tile, the stronger and the longer it will last. But, of course, the more expensive. The most suitable thickness is half a million or so.

The optimal coating will be polyester. It is of good quality at a moderate price. Who does not like shiny roofs, buys a tile with a matte polyetzer. The tile of the pvf2 brand is extremely durable and «holds» the color for a long time, but it is not affordable for everyone.

It is most convenient to work with a tile of an asymmetric profile and with a high «wave». It gives high structure stiffness for a variety of roof options. If you cover something small (shed, garage) “Wave” can be small. Look (on drawings, store stands), what the docking looks like, whether you like it. Find out if the tile has a layer that protects against corrosion — without it, it will not have a warranty period.

Choose the color of the tile to taste and based on architecture. Most often they buy tiles of dark shades — brown, red, green. Do not forget that the darker the color, the stronger the metal heats up, and the house will need a thoughtful ventilation system. On the other hand, on a bright surface, all pollutions know better.
