Why Homeowners Choose Composite

Composite roofing has become the preferred choice for homeowners seeking beauty without compromise.

75% Lighter Than Slate

No structural reinforcement needed—installs on standard roof decking, saving thousands in additional framing costs.

Class A Fire Rating

Highest fire resistance rating available, unlike natural cedar which requires chemical treatment for fire protection.

Class 4 Impact Resistance

Withstands hail up to 2 inches in diameter—many insurance companies offer premium discounts for Class 4 roofs.

Eco-Friendly Materials

Made from recycled plastics and rubber, composite roofing keeps materials out of landfills while reducing demand for quarried stone.

MATERIAL SCIENCE

What Makes Composite Roofing Different

Unlike traditional roofing materials that rely on a single substance, composite roofing combines multiple engineered materials to achieve superior performance across all metrics.

Polymer Core: The base layer uses advanced polymers that resist UV degradation, freeze-thaw cycles, and chemical exposure. This core maintains dimensional stability through extreme temperature swings common in the NYC metro area.

Reinforcement Layer: Fiberglass or mineral fiber reinforcement provides tensile strength and prevents cracking under foot traffic or impact from falling debris.

Surface Treatment: Proprietary coatings resist algae growth, provide color stability, and replicate the natural texture of slate, cedar, or clay tile with remarkable authenticity.
