Steep Slope Roofing

Steep slope roofing is designed for roofs with a pitch greater than 3:12, commonly found in residential homes. These roofs not only provide an aesthetic appeal but also offer efficient water and snow runoff, reducing the risk of leaks. Materials such as asphalt shingles, clay tiles, and metal are often used in steep slope applications, providing both durability and versatility in design. With proper installation, steep slope roofing systems can last several decades, offering a balance of functionality and style.

Usage & History

Steep slope roofing has been a staple in residential architecture for centuries, favored for its ability to enhance curb appeal and provide natural water drainage. Historically, materials like thatch, slate, and wood were used, evolving over time to include modern materials such as asphalt shingles and metal. The use of steep slope roofing continues to be prevalent in modern architecture, particularly in suburban and rural settings. Its application extends beyond residential homes to include churches, schools, and other structures where aesthetic and functional performance are key.

Why Steep Slope Roofing?

  • Enhanced Aesthetics: Steep slope roofs add a distinctive and appealing architectural element to buildings, increasing curb appeal.

  • Effective Water Runoff: The steep pitch allows for quick water and snow shedding, reducing the risk of water damage and leaks.

  • Material Variety: A wide range of materials can be used, from traditional asphalt shingles to more durable metal or clay tiles, offering design flexibility.

  • Longevity: Steep slope roofing systems are designed for long-term performance, often lasting 30 years or more with proper maintenance.

Clients’ Testimonials

Eric and the Roof Clinic did an amazing job replacing the roof on our home. I cannot thank them enough for the professionalism and outstanding communication throughout the project.
I highly recommend them! 5 Stars!!!

I love working with The Roof Clinic, I refer them to everyone. I have used them twice for minor repairs. I called and they came promptly, fixed what I told them I needed to and then another quick fix I didn’t know I needed. When I asked about hail damage, as many homes in my subdivision had roofers come in and tell them there was damage, they were quick to reassure me my roof was fine. They could have so easily jumped on the “Hail Damage Bandwagon” that many of my neighbors did but reassured me instead. I so appreciated their honesty and that built a tremendous amount of trust. I also love that The Roof Clinic supports their community. Efficient, Friendly, civic minded and Trustworthy. 2 Thumbs up from me.

Excellent work and communication. Payment was easy to make and anything that was needed, I was immediately notified. They took the time to assess and explain everything to me. Thank goodness my roof was repaired in time before a giant rain storm the following day!

We dreaded calling for the estimate because we did not know if our insurance would cover the damages. Mr. Eric Thomas inspected our roof, spoke to our insurance adjuster, took pictures of the damage on the roof and inside of our home. He made our roof installation experience a seamless one.He provided a detailed description of every aspect of our installation. He sat down and explained the line items to us and answered all of our questions. Our roof was installed in one day. I went to work with a sad looking roof and returned to a beautiful one! I hope I won’t need a new installation anytime soon, but if I do, I’m calling The Roof Clinic.

I love working with this team. They replaced 2 roofs for me already and I have only good things to say about them. The were VERY knowledgeable, responsive, on time and highly professional. Most importantly, they did all the heavy lifting between the insurance company and myself.

I would gladly use them again.
