Homeowners seeking a long-lasting and attractive roofing solution benefit on all ends with composite roofing. Composite is known for durability, aesthetic appeal, and low maintenance, making it today’s most popular roof style choice.
Manufactured from recycled materials
Composite is a synthetic alternative that can mimic the aesthetic of slate, Spanish clay (barrel shingles), or cedar shakes (photo above). Composite roofs are more durable and will last longer than other common roofing materials. Brava Composite roofing provides a 50-year limited lifetime warranty. And why wouldn’t they with materials engineered to resist water intrusion, insect damage, UV ray damage, and that are fire resistant? Another major benefit of composite is that it’s sustainable & eco-friendly. If a major event occurs and the roof has to be replaced, the roofing can be recycled.
Why choose composite roofing
Aesthetic and Architectural appeal — Much more pleasing than traditional roofing materials (asphalt shingles, concrete tiles, or slate, shake, and clay tiles).
Lightweight — Potentially reducing the need for reinforced roof framing, which saves money and materials.
Energy Efficiency — Beneficial not only for homeowners but also for the entire community. By reducing energy costs and improving building comfort, this boosts the availability and dependability of electrical power, thus reducing adverse environmental impacts. Brava offers Cool-Roof certified shingles that meet Cool Roof Title 24 and Title 31 specifications.
What’s a Cool-Roof? Composite roofing products provide increased insulation, which substantially reduces heat absorption by increasing the reflective characteristics of the roof shingles and tiles. This initiative led to the development of the industry term “cool roof.” What are the requirements to be a “Cool Roof” product?
- Thermal emittance: The ability of a roof shingle to release any heat that it has absorbed.
- Three-Year Aged Reflectance: A measurement of a roof tile’s ability to reflect heat away from itself after 3 years.
- Solar Reflective Index (SRI): The ability of a roof shingle to reflect solar heat as measured by a small rise in temperature.
