Top of the morning to you, do you know that the roofing sheet is the outermost layer on the roof of a building? Sometimes it is self-supported, but mostly generally supported by an underlying structure.
A building's roofing sheet provides shelter from the natural elements, the outer layer of a roof shows great variation dependent upon availability of material and the nature of the supporting structure.
Those types of roofing materials which are commercially available range from natural products such as thatch and slate to commercially produced products such as tiles and polycarbonate sheeting. Roofing materials may be placed on top of a secondary water-resistant material called underlayment. From natural materials like slate and wood, to manmade products such as asphalt, sheet metal, and plastic polymers; there are more types and styles of roofing to choose from today than ever before. While each has its advantages and shortcomings, they all can add a distinctive design element to your home. So which one is right for you?

• Will the look complement the style of the house?
• Are the materials eco-friendly?
