Aluminium Roofing Explained
6 October, 2021
Aluminium roofing is fast becoming one of our most popular products, and it’s easy to see why our customers are so pleased with the end result.
It may not be the traditional roofing material that you’d expect to see, like zinc or copper roofing, but it’s definitely one to rival the more common, go-to metals.
So, why choose aluminium over steel for your roof?
These specialist roofs offer a wide range of impressive and unique benefits, which makes them a fantastic, affordable and rewarding investment.
To help you find out more about how aluminium roofing works, and the benefits of this specific roofing material, we’ve used this blog post to provide our expert’s guide to aluminium roofing.
What is aluminium roofing?
In short, it’s roofing that is made from aluminium.
Metal roofing is becoming increasingly popular, because of the fact that it is highly durable, while being affordable, and easy to manufacture, install and fit.
With aluminium roofing, property owners can either decide to stick with the metal’s natural silver sheen, or colour it to a wide variety of different shades and hues.
Furthermore, aluminium roofing is also available in blended metal options. One of the most popular of these is zinc coated aluminium roofing. This innovative product achieves all the benefits of zinc, at a fraction of the price.
At Salmon Solutions, our aluminium roofing comes from some of the UK’s leading and most trusted suppliers. These include Kalzip, Prefa Falzonal and Alu FX Patina. We work with these dependable manufacturers to ensure that our aluminium roofs are consistently of the highest possible quality.
What are the benefits of aluminium roofing?
Aluminium roofing offers a wide range of notable benefits.
These include (but certainly aren’t limited to):
- Highly malleable
- Remarkably durable
- Resistant to weather and corrosion
- The sleek, modern finish of the metal
- The option to colour the aluminium
- Lightweight
- Highly energy efficient
- Eco conscious
- Available in a wide range of different styles and finishes
In fact, aluminium roofs that have been installed by expert roofers have been known to last for many decades – 50 years plus!
What’s more, as a result of their high level of energy efficiency, aluminium roofs significantly reduce the amount of heat that is lost from within your property to the outdoors. This increases your home’s energy efficiency, saving you money in bills and reducing your carbon footprint, too.
Thanks to all these factors, they represent a fantastic investment for property owners, which significantly increase the value, security, eco-consciousness and visual impact of a building.
