Architectural Roofing Tile
VANDE HEY-RALEIGH INTRODUCTION Vande Hey-Raleigh Architectural Roof Tile offers the architect, builder and home owner the complete roof tile system. We specialize in custom colors and textures for new construction and those hard to match restoration projects. A concrete tile roof is something special. It's beautiful, distinctive, rugged, practical . . . a building with our tile roof says something about the character of its owners. COLD CLIMATE Vande Hey-Raleigh's smaller tile (135 pieces per square) and "V" cut weather track allows the roof to expand and contract on an individual basis. Besides the technical advantage of smaller tile, our tile also provides a natural beauty not usually obtainable with its large tile competitors. Protection is where Vande Hey-Raleigh tile really stands out among other roofing materials. Since it is manufactured for the extreme cold and warm climate of Wisconsin, it is resistant to virtually all weather conditions. Our tile roof system withstands wind driven rain, absorbs very little moisture and defies termites, rodents and rot. "Freeze/thaw cycles" that cause other roofing materials to deteriorate will not affect it. And our concrete roof tile will not burn. Only Vande Hey-Raleigh completes any building statement. All tile are tested in accordance with and exceed minimums for strength, water absorption, freeze-thaw, dimensions and installed weight: * Metropolitan Dade County Florida, Number 94-0217.02 * DO Number 4907 * Canadian Ministry of Housing * City of Los Angeles * ASTM * SBCCl * UBC ABOUT LIFE-CYCLE COSTS Life-cycle costing can be an effective tool in evaluating product value. The life-cycle cost of a product is a measure of the comparison between the product's purchase price plus installation and anticipated maintenance costs during its expected life span. Even the cost to the environment can affect its bottom line. Life-cycle costs are typically estimated on a cost-per-year basis. Based on economics VANDE HEY-RALEIGH: the most intelligent decision you can make. LIFE-CYCLE COSTS Information provided by Bonnie Pierce of "Florida Forum".
