True Nature Metal Roofing3. They add value4. Metal roofs look good longer5. Metal roofs improve yourenergy efficiencyWith True Nature, metal roofs are no longer limitedto standing seam barns or cottages. Metal tilesoffer the appearance of natural materials like slate,shake, and clay tiles, but without the high cost andmaintenance. Specialized paint coatings result inmulti-hued finishes that are designed to look evenmore like their natural counterparts.Whychooseametalroof?Compared to othermaterials, metal roofsare an easy choice. Hereare five reasons why.2. Metal roofs are stylish1. It’s the environmentallyresponsible decisionMetal is 100% recyclable, with more metal beingrecycled than paper, aluminum, glass, and plasticcombined. In contrast, the primary ingredient inasphalt is tar, a derivative of petroleum, which is toxic,messy, and can’t be recycled. In fact, more than11 million tonnes of asphalt-based roofing end upin North American landfills each year.Metal roofs look as good at year 50 as they do theday they’re installed. That’s because True Naturemetal tiles are made from Galvalume steel thatfeatures an anti-corrosive metallic coating withself-healing properties that protects it from rusting.On top of this coating is a paint finish designed tominimize color fade over time.Ordinary roofing materials have shorter life spansand need to be replaced every 10 to 20 years.The condition of a roof is often a clue to thecondition of the rest of a home. If it’s aging, a roofcan be an indication of costly structural damagefrom dampness or leaks, not to mention potentialhealth problems caused by mold. According toRemodeling magazine, re-roofing pays off betterthan any other home renovation, with an averagecost recovery of 106%.In addition to featuring Cool Roof paints that reflectsun rays, True Nature metal tiles are formed withan airspace between the metal and the roofdeck that acts further to stop the conductive flowof heat from the surface of the roof into the attic.Testing has shown metal tiles can reduce heatgain by approximately 40% compared to standardasphalt shingles.vicwest.com

Weep holeTrue Nature’s weep holes act as a secondary layer of protection,providing avenues for traveling, trapped water and condensationto drain back down over top of the tile and into your gutters.COVERAGENATUREINTENDEDWater-shedding channelsCapillary action causes water to behave like a stickysubstance. Cascading water wants to travel laterally alongthe edge of a roof tile and seep onto the underlayment.We’ve engineered our proprietary design to lock water intoa channel, diverting downward over the tile and away fromthe underlayment, minimizing the greatest threat to yourroof: water damage.True Nature Metal RoofingWhen it came to developinga shake and slate metal tilewith unprecedented waterprotection, our engineeringteam looked to nature forinspiration.Drain-savvy ridge capsTrue Nature’s proprietary ridge cap system featuresa 7” wide ridge cap. This allows for a secondarywater channel or “beak” that diverts drivingrainwater over top of the tile rather than beneath,where it can cause damage to the roof deck.vicwest.com
