What are the winter roof: Features

Conducting roofing work in the winter is, so to speak, a traditional and not quite common thing, but still very popular recently.

According to technology, roofing work in the summer and winter time differs significantly from each other.

First of all, you should decide on the choice of material used in the work. The main thing is that it is frost -resistant, in addition to the installation technology must necessarily provide for the possibility of use at low temperatures.

For example, flexible tiles or ondulin are suitable for the winter roof only in theory. Since laying ondulin in conditions of minus temperature and it is simply impossible not to damage it because the installation of polymer-bitumen and bitumen materials is carried out with an unit of the lower layer, which allows you to glue it to the crate, and at minus temperature it will be very difficult. So there is a large risk of overheating, which provoke damage to the material, which will ultimately bring it into complete unsuitability.

In the cold, it will be the best to use corrugated board or metal tiles. Their operational properties allow the use of such materials at a temperature of both minus fifty and plus one hundred and twenty degrees.

The metal tile is fastened quite easily, without any additional procedures. In addition, it is light enough and does not absorb moisture at all, which increases its resistance to sharp temperature differences and significantly facilitates the installation.

But nevertheless, for the roofing in the winter, natural cement-sand or ceramic tiles is most suitable because natural tiles have a fairly long service life (about a hundred years). Also, the tiles almost do not absorb moisture, so that low temperatures in no way will affect its strength. And the technology of installing tiles in the summer and winter season is exactly the same and very easy.
