Steep Slope

Wood Shake Roofs at Peoria Zoo

Steep slope roofing typically refers to roofs with a slope greater than 3:12 (or 14 degrees). These roofing systems are commonly seen on both residential houses and commercial establishments, such as hotels, churches, and more. The materials used for steep slope commercial roofs range from asphalt shingles, slate tiles, wood shake, clay tile, synthetic roofs, to metal roofing, and more. Their design ensures quick water runoff, reducing the chance of water infiltration or leaks.
