Brava - Cedar Shake Composite Roof Tile Accessories

tabs] Why We Like It While new wooden shake roofs and siding are attractive, they often lose their appeal after a few years. Their color changes to gray; even if you stain them a different color, which is expensive, they will regularly require additional staining. They can mold and mildew, which requires extensive cleaning, and they can crack from hail or damaging winds over time. The biggest issue is that they burn, which is why they are not allowed in certain subdivisions. With Brava's Cedar Shake tile, everything changes: there is virtually no maintenance, and there are a variety of color options that provide an authentic appearance. Brava Shake tiles are impervious to the elements and virtually indestructible. Walking on this roof will not damage it, nor will wind, hail, falling trees, etc., which is a nice secure feeling. You can't say that about most other roofs. We also like that it's 100% recycled and recyclable, and has a low impact on the environment. No trees need to be cut down. What more could you ask for from a roof or siding? Expensive, yes, but not overpriced. If you're building a new home or remodeling an older home, this is a worthwhile investment to seriously consider.
