3 Things You’ll Not Like About Aluminum Roofing Sheets
Almost every good thing comes at a price and aluminum roofing sheet is not different.
Noise Level: It is one of the most ‘noisy’ types of roofing materials and this will become evident after the first rainfall in your new home.
Aside from during rainfall, it also makes annoying noise on sunny days. This is because the metal undergoes expansion during the day resulting in noise at almost every joint. Such noise is also common with corrugated iron roofing sheet.
If you’d prefer a more quiet roofing sheet, your best options out there is the more expensive coated roofing sheet.
Leaks Easily: If your aluminum roofing sheet is properly installed, you won’t have to fear any leaks for any length of time but often a little mistake can easily result in leakage. Ensure your installers uses cap nails during installation to minimize damage to the roofing sheet.
A bit More Expensive: Though Aluminium roofing sheet is not the most expensive type of roofing sheet in Nigeria, its price is surprisingly high considering that aluminum is quite abundant.
This high cost might be due in part to the high demand by most homeowners in Nigeria as well as the exchange rate in the international market since they are usually imported into the country.
Aluminium roofing sheet is an excellent roofing material and is currently the trending material among homeowners in Nigeria. It gives you the opportunity to beautify your home by providing you with a wide selection of colors to pick from and is quite easy to work with.
If you can overlook the noise level, you’d find that it’s worth every penny you’ll spend on it.
