What is Stone Coated Steel?

Stone coated steel roofs are steel panels that are formed into patterns meant to look tile, shake, and shingle roofs. The steel panels are then coated in stone chips that provide color and protection to the metal panels. Some of the most popular styles are the Mediterranean Decra Villa Tile or the rustic shake style Decra Shake XD. Tilcor’s Antica tile pattern is also very popular among home and business owners looking to replicate a classic tile roof with a stone-coated steel product.

This is my second time using Presidio Roofing, and once again, they delivered excellent service. This time, it was just a small roof repair, but they treated it with the same professionalism and attention to detail as a larger job. The technician, Jonathan, was prompt, courteous, and got the work done quickly and efficiently. It’s great to know I can rely on them for both big and small roofing needs. Highly recommended!

First off I am a new homeowner and had no idea what I was doing when the hail storm came and damaged my roof. I was told by my insurance company to file a claim and they would send someone out to inspect it. Their roof inspector was rude and brash, It seemed like he was in it just to make another sale. So I looked around and called Presidio Roofing Company. My point of contact with Presidio was Jon Whitaker and he was an absolute blessing. Jon explained everything to me and was extremely knowledgeable about all the questions I had. He truly is a master of his craft. Presidio Roofing took charge of the claim and it was painless for me. NO headache or run arounds, just business and extreme satisfactory. I strongly recommend any one that needs any kind of roofing done to give them a call! You will no be disappointed.

Why Choose a Decra Roof?

There are many reasons to consider a Decra or Tilcor stone coated steel roof for your home or business. As the best Decra roofing company in San Antonio we consider these to be the primary reasons to think about switching to a Decra roofing system:

Hail Resistance

Stone Coated Steel roofs have a Class 4 hail rating. Both Decra and Tilcor have this rating and it means they will hold up to 2” hailstones. Both products have hail specific warranties for hail up to 2.5” which would completely total your average roof including metal or clay tile. This allows home and business owners to qualify for reduction in their property insurance premiums. In Texas there is a specific Class 4 TDI form that you can send to your insurance agent to have your premium reduced by often more than 25%.

Wind Resistance

A properly installed stone coated steel roof can withstand hurricane force winds. Decra roofs have wind warranties up to 120 mph.

Warranty

Stone Coated Steel roofs are meant to the kind of roofs that last on your home or business for your entire life. In all likelihood you will never need to replace your Decra or Tilcor roof and their lifetime warranties attest to that fact. As the top Decra roofer in San Antonio we love installing these roofs because we know that every client will no longer have to worry about their roof.

Fire Resistance

Stone Coated Steel Roofs have the highest possible “Class A” fire rating. This makes them perfect for dry and hot environments like San Antonio where fires can start easily. This also means if a fire starts in your home your property will not explode in flames like if you had an asphalt shingle product.

Lightweight

A Decra or Tilcor roofing panel system weighs only about 150 pounds per 100 square feet when installed. This is about half the weight of standard architectural shingle and about 15% the weight of a larger concrete or clay tile roofing system. This means less force is applied to your property’s rafters, framing, walls, etc which is better for the life of your property in the long term. This also means that you do not need to work about the product being too heavy for a viable replacement. For example, if you wanted to upgrade a shingle roof to a tile roof you would likely need to get additional bracing support installed in your attic to handle the new weight load.

Sustainable and Energy Efficient

Stone coated steel roofs are recyclable, they qualify as “Cool Roofs” due to their thermal reflective efficiency, and they are elevated above the roof decking thus providing “above sheathing ventilation” which greatly reduces the heat of your attic. One of the coolest sustainable facts about a Decra or Tilcor stone coated steel roof is that they lend themselves well to water catchment systems. Water flowing off a Decra roof is qualified per the standards set by the world health organization as potable drinking water, whereas water flowing off an old asphalt roof would be toxic. All-in-all a stone coated steel roof is extremely environmentally friendly and will save you money on your electricity bill every month.

Long-term Cost Savings

A Decra roof will save you money in the long-term by reducing your insurance premiums, saving you money on your electric bill, and preventing the need to replace your roof every 6-10 years from due to hail damage.

Cost of a Decra Roof?

A Decra or Tilcor roof is generally going to cost about 3x what a traditional asphalt shingle roof would cost to replace. Depending on the type of roof it will usually cost 25-50% less than a tile roof and roughly the same as a standing seam metal roof. To replace a Decra roof, including tear off, you will find yourself in the range of $9 to $20 per square foot. Some factors that can drastically affect the cost of a new Decra roof include the amount of valleys and hips your roof has, whether you elect for a batten or direct-to-deck installation, the amount of wall and chimney flashings on your home, and the steepness and height of the roof.

When considering whether it makes sense to install a Decra roof in San Antonio it is always best to obtain a free estimate from one of our qualified project managers. They will help you analyze the cost-benefit ratio in the long term of a new stone coated steel roof when factoring in considerations such as insurance premium reductions, reduce energy costs each month, and not having to replace your roof every 6-10 years due to a hailstorm. Overall, in the long term, installing a new Decra roof on your home is almost always the best financial decision and we can help provide you with the facts needed to make that decision.
