Roofing materials

 

Wood Shingles. Wood shingles make an excellent roofing and can be used as siding over sheathing. Most shingles measure about 16 inches in length, and five thick ends, piled atop one another, should measure 2 inches.

Asphalt Shingles. Asphalt shingles can be purchased individually or in strips containing three or four shingles attached at the butt end. Asphalt shingles are purchased by the bundle, each of which covers 25 square feet.

Boll Roofing. Roll roofing is made out of materials similar to those used in asphalt shingles. The roll is 36 inches wide, and each roll covers 100 square feet. Roll roofing is graded by weight, the heavier giving considerably longer service.

Aluminum Shingles. Aluminum shingles have recently come on the market. They are fireproof and will last indefinitely.
