Metal Roof Tiles for renovation projects.


Metal Roof Tiles for renovation projects.

Looking to renovate your house? Check out the Metal Tile roofing materials.
The benefits are clear: light weight, long run for easy installation, strength and weather resistance, easy to install and suitable for DIY installation, competitive in pricing, easy to deliver to remote areas.
The Pressed and Rolled Roof Metal Tiles are the latest roofing product that combine all of the greatest technology in roofing materials.
The Tile roof sheets are strong, zinc coated for rust proving,  painted in modern colours and can be fitted on any roof pitch from 6 deg.
Metal Tiles will be fixed with the ordinary roofing screws and therefore are easy to install and replace.
That makes them great for re-roofing and home renovation projects, where the pitch of the roof is low or the new roof has to look like tiled.
In particular the metal roof tiles are great for carports and garages, awnings and skilion roofs over the patios and pergolas.
In case of re-roofing, the pressed metal tiles can be fitted to the existing roof battens, providing that they are in good condition, do not split when screws are put through and positioned in the right places.
Gazebo with a Metal Tile roof will be a great addition to your back yard next to the pool. A metal tile roof will make it looking different and will add value to your back yard.

How to reduce noise of a metal roof

Over the years we found that one of the most common questions, and sometimes even concerns about metal roofing, is the noise. Often people are considering using a metal roof, but are afraid that it may be noisy when it rains or in case of a strong wind.

We have a lot of people who want to use the metal tile roof due to its superior qualities like light weight and strength, but would like to know how if there is a way to reduce the noise of the rain.

I would like to say that one of the most common and perhaps easiest ways to reduce the noise is to use the insulating blanket installed under the metal roofing sheets.

The insulating roof blanket is usually 55 mm thick and has a foil base. The blanket is made of thick insulating materials (mineral blanket) and comes in rolls of  around 18 sq.m.

It works best when installed on top of the roof battens touching the roofing iron with its fluffy side and foil side looking down. This way it provides not only insulation, but also great noise reduction as well. It absorbs heat and noise acting as a buffer and provides a great and not expensive solution.

Insulating blanket is one of the cheapest products on the market at the moment and is easy to install.

It can be used for the carports as well see at www.easytiledcarports.com.au
