Metal roof that looks like spanish tile
Characteristics
Spanish tile is made of the following materials:
- copper alloys
- zinc-coated steel with polymer coating
The material itself in is a sheet of metal with a width up to 0.53 millimeters. The length can be customized with the minimum value of 0.3 m and the maximum of 6 m. However, it is not recommended ordering sheets which are longer than 3 m. Large sheets significantly complicate the installation process.
The Mediterranean tile has a wavy form – smooth and harmonious. Like any other roof it reliably protects building from external influences.
Installation
Metal tile roof does not require routine maintenance during the entire operation period. A noticeable advantage is a small overlap of no more than 40 mm. It is worthwhile noticing here that the installation of Spanish tile is carried out only from right to left. Mediterranean tile is attached to the lumber strapping, that allows to compensate for the expansion of the metal which happens after a change in temperature.
