The asphalt shingle roof of this home in the West University area of Houston had been badly damaged in storms in the winter. Remedy Roofing had done some emergency repairs to prevent leaks and further damage to the house.
After the insurance had approved a replacement for the roof, the client wanted to upgrade to a clay tile roof. However, as this home was not built to support that kind of weight, Remedy Roofing came up with a solution:
The Decra Stone Coated Steel Panel system was the perfect alternative to a conventional clay tile roof.

The Decra system may look extremely similar to clay tile but it is one of the most light-weight products you can put on a roof. The Decra Stone Coated Steel roof was installed in panels which took about five days.
The new system is not only extremely durable with a class A fire rating, a 120 mph wind warranty and a class 4 impact resistance, but also highly energy efficient. Feel free to contact us if you want to learn more about this roof type! Check out this short video we created before and after the roof installation:
