LOUISIANA CUSTOM & SPECIALTY ROOFING PROJECTS
WOOD SHAKE ROOFING
If you are looking for a distressed or rustic roof that really stands out in South Louisiana, call us to see our collection of spruce, pine, cedar and redwood shake roofing. Wood shake roofing can last up to 18 years in our tough southern climate, and it provides excellent thermodynamic protection from our high summer temperatures.
SLATE ROOFING
Searching for a lifetime roofing solution? Slate roofing is becoming a very popular option for Louisiana homeowners who do not want to ever have to replace their roof. With a timeless, classic elegance and a variety of color and shape options, a slate roof is simply unmatched for durability, luxury, and a lifetime of very low maintenance.
MEXICAN TILE ROOFING
Perfect for rainy Louisiana days, terra-cotta Mexican Tile roofs are built to withstand wind and water. Sometimes referred to as Spanish Colonial Tile, these roofing materials are available in a wide variety of shapes and layouts, including imbrex and tegula, pantiles, mission or barrel tiles, interlocking tiles and flat tiles. They will last up to 40 years.
SYNTHETIC ROOFING
If customization and quality are the most important factors to you, synthetic roofing is an economical alternative to other long lasting roofing materials. Including faux slate, synthetic wood, plastic and other composite materials, these roofs are both durable and environmentally sound. These synthetic roofs can last up to 75 years, and typically fall between real slate/clay and traditional composition shingles.
METAL ROOFING
Another popular building material in Louisiana that is seeing significant increases in implementation are metal roofs. Naturally energy efficient, these metal roofs are usually installed at a pitch, or an angle to eliminate excess water after a storm. Extremely resistant to fire, wind and rain, these roofs can last up to 40 years, and their light weight helps to ensure the structural integrity of your home for years to come.
SHINGLE ROOFING
The most popular roofing material in the U.S. since their invention, composition shingles are an affordable and trusted building material available in a spectrum of colors and shapes for every taste. Asphalt shingles are exceptional at reducing noise, making them perfect for urban living. Easily the most cost effective coverage your home can have, shingle roofs are ideal for most homeowners.
FINIALS, END CAPS & ORNAMENTS
In addition to providing roofing labor and materials, GCB of Louisiana can custom order beautiful accents for your home like finials, end caps, tinted flashing, wind vanes, chimney caps, roof ornaments and other finishing touches to really give your home that extra bit of curb appeal.
Architectural finials are typically applied to gable ends and corners of buildings, and are made from an enormous variety of materials including cast iron, bronze, brass, copper, terra cotta, wood or even glass. These accents are becoming more popular in South Louisiana as they can be used to disguise lightning rods.
REQUEST AN ESTIMATE
GCB of Louisiana provides custom estimates for each and every project. Many aspects of a home can affect the price of your new roof. Once an estimate is requested, we will collect all necessary information about your home and provide an estimate custom tailored to your needs. We cannot provide a quote based solely on square footage.
