Brava Synthetic Slate Roof Replacement in Colorado Springs
This picturesque Colorado Springs home was built in 1948. Its metal shake roof and copper gutter system were damaged by a severe hailstorm that swept the Broadmoor area in August of 2020. After the storm hit, the home’s owner contacted Rampart Roofing for an inspection. We quickly discovered that the home needed a full roof replacement.
When it came to choosing a roofing material, the homeowner had several options. She explained that she liked the look of slate but wanted the durability of a synthetic composite shingle. We suggested a couple of synthetic roofing options: F-Wave or Brava composite roofing shingles. Both are Class 4 impact resistant roofing materials that offer superior durability. The homeowner ultimately chose Brava’s Old World Slate roofing because she liked the thicker profile as opposed to F-Wave’s Revia slate shingles which are thinner.
In just one week, our roofing crews completed the full roof replacement project. Because the homeowner chose Brava’s Old World Slate roofing in the color Onyx, we installed a special white underlayment to prevent heat from transferring from the roof’s dark colored surface to the attic. We replaced all 17 of the home’s skylights and the homeowner upgraded from 5” to 6” copper gutters as well. With its beautiful color scheme of a dark roof and copper gutters, this Broadmoor home stands out well against its scenic background. Its new Brava tile roof is sure to last for years to come and the homeowner was happy to have the roof installed by a local Colorado Springs company.
With its superior strength, Brava roofing is an excellent choice for Colorado Springs homeowners. With a Brava roof, homeowners can achieve the look of natural slate tile roofing without the drawbacks of potential breakage and expense of natural materials. Brava Roof Tile manufactures environmentally friendly roofing made of recycled materials. This Brava roof comes with a 50-year limited manufacturer’s warranty and is Class A fire rated and Class 4 impact resistant. Click here to learn more about the materials we installed on this roof.
