WHY ALUMINUM ROOFING MAY BE A POOR CHOICE

THESE ALUMINUM SHINGLES ARE MADE WITH SUBSTANDARD GRADE MATERIALS. THERE IS NO PRIMER COAT ON THE PRODUCT. AND ONLY A SINGLE COAT OF PAINT, ON BARE ALUMINUM.


THE HOMEOWNER REMEMBERED HOW THE SALESMAN STRESSED THE SUPERIOR QUALITY OF THEIR ALUMINUM ROOFING, OVER STEEL ROOFING. TIME HAS PROVEN THAT THEIR ALUMINUM SHINGLES WERE INFERIOR.


THESE FADED AND LEAKING ALUMINUM ROOF PANELS, WERE INSTALLED OVER THE EXISTING TAR AND GRAVEL ROOF.NOTICE THAT THERE ARE NO ROOF VENTS.THERE WERE MAJOR MOISTURE PROBLEMS WITHIN THIS HOME.



PLUMBING PIPES HAVE NOT BEEN SEALED PROPERLY WITH A DECKTITE RUBBER FLASHING. THIS IS 
ANOTHER ALUMINUM ROOF THAT WAS INSTALLED OVERTOP OF AN EXISTING TAR & GRAVEL ROOF.

As the figure on left shows: When bird's droppings accumulate on the Aluminum panel, corrosion will occur. The corrosion will also cause water leakage.
