Metal & Tile Roofing
Metal Roofing
Saunders Roofing installs & repairs virtually all types of metal roofs being used in the industry. These include aluminum, copper, zinc, stainless steel and terne.
- Aluminum is used for its corrosion resistance and malleability - such as its ability to be formed into detailed wood shake profiles. Aluminum roofing always has a paint finish or anodization applied to it for color and extra durability.
- Copper, zinc and stainless steel more commonly are used without additional coatings. Copper is used for its durability and characteristic patina.
- Zinc also is used for its corrosion resistance, malleability and low-gloss gray look.
- Stainless steel is used to achieve a lasting, bright, silver metallic look or to meet the demands of an exceptionally corrosive environment.
Tile Roofing
We have expertise in a variety of clay roofing tiles and reinforced cement roofing materials including: Hendricks, Monier and Ludowici.
Ludowici Clay Roof Tile -
From the Ludowici website – “For over a century, Ludowici’s clay roof tile has been renowned by architects for its beauty and durability. A roof crafted from Ludowici roof tile typically lasts well over a century, and is backed by the industry’s most comprehensive warranty program, including a 75-year warranty. Limitless is the best way to describe Ludowici’s selection. With dozens of current standard profiles, historical styles spanning Ludowici’s 120-year history and the capability to create or match custom designs, nearly any shape imaginable can grace your roof. Add in Ludowici’s full spectrum of colors and finishing techniques, along with an extensive line of accessories, and the result is truly a vision without compromise.”
Hendricks Reinforced Concrete Roof Tile -
From the Hendricks (local Richmond Co.) product brochure – “Hendricks tile is made from reinforced concrete, in colors and textures especially selected for the individual job. It is hand-finished to achieve a unique, natural appearance. And within a year after the tile is installed, it has weathered to a warm mellow color that sets it apart from any other roofing product. Hendricks tile is a lifetime investment. It was first made in 1926, and today covers homes, churches and restorations all up and down the east coast.”

From the MonierLifetile website – “MonierLifetile, Monier was founded in 1965 and Lifetile in 1962. The company is the largest manufacturer of premium-quality roof tile in the United States.
