Because the roof is a major structural component of a home, several things must be considered when selecting roofing products. Key points to consider include style and color, performance requirements, warranty protection and of course, roofing planning guides. Select the style and color that best complement a home’s exterior features (siding, trim, brick, paint, etc.) at your local Carter Lumber.
Asphalt Shingles. Owens Corning shingles and other top asphalt shingle brands resist moisture, blistering, curling and buckling and have varying limited warranties depending on brand and style.
Mineral Surfaced Roll Roofing. Because mineral-surfaced rolled roofing material is constructed of a hardworking Fiberglas® mat, it lasts longer. Rolled roofing material lies flat, to better protect against weather and help resist moisture. Able to fit the style of just about any building project, it’s available in a wide range of popular colors from your complete roofing supplier, Carter Lumber.
Metal Roofing. Whether your application is new or old, commercial, agricultural or residential, Fabral's metal roofing materials and paint systems are designed to exceed requirements and expectations for pro builders and DIY projects alike. Make Grandrib 3® or Grandrib 3® PLUS roofing supplies your choice for all your metal panel building needs.
Wood Shingles. Smooth sawn, architecturally uniform cedar wood shaker shingles are preferred for their natural, tailored appearance and are used on traditional, modern and non-residential structures. You’ll find a beautiful selection of wood shaker shingles at Carter Lumber.
Vents. The proper ventilation of attics is important. A well-ventilated attic has under-eave or soffit vents, which allow fresh air into the attic. The fresh air flows up between rafters to the ridge, where the roof vent system allows the air to exit.
