Chalco roofing material purchasing FAQs

Aluminum roofing installation and maintenance

Aluminum roofing materials are light and easy to install, with a long maintenance cycle and low cost. After installation, regular inspection and cleaning of the drainage system can extend the service life.

Are aluminum roofs more durable than other materials?

Are aluminum roofs suitable for all climate conditions?

Aluminum roofs are suitable for all climates, especially extreme weather and humid environments. Its corrosion resistance and weather resistance make it excellent in marine climates, tropical climates and other regions.

Will the aluminum roof generate heat?

Aluminum roofs have good heat reflection ability and can effectively prevent the conduction of solar heat. Modern aluminum roofs usually have insulation layers to reduce heat accumulation.

How much does an aluminum roof cost to maintain?

Aluminum roofs are low maintenance. Due to their durability and lack of susceptibility to corrosion, maintenance only requires regular cleaning and inspection of the drainage system, reducing the need for frequent repairs.
