About Roof Systems products
ArchiPro features the best roof systems in New Zealand with an emphasis on quality and top-of-the-line products. The term ‘roof system’ encapsulates all roofing components, including roof framing and lining, insulation, and other roofing accessories. The five conventional components of roofing systems are a covering, sheath, structure, flashing, and drainage-however, the styles these are available in are broad. Green roof systems, for example, will require different forms and functionalities than an aluminium roof system.
Roof systems and components in New Zealand
Steel components such as Roof Steel form part of structural roof systems, distinct from the covering above. Ventilation systems for flat roofs include vents such as Nuravents; their positions should be coordinated with access hatches to keep maintenance routes clear.
Aluminium roof system
Aluminium is a popular type of metal roofing. Its sustainability and flexibility make it the perfect option for a roof system.
For pergolas and other outdoor spaces, louvre roof systems such as Louvre Opening Roof Systems have adjustable blades rather than a fixed covering.
Green roof system
An innovative twist on the traditional roof, green roof systems involve planting vegetation on a roof. These rely on robust waterproof layers. A green flat roof system also needs a growing medium suited to rooftop planting, such as LiteRoof : Green Roof Soil Mix.
Slate roof systems
A timeless classic across New Zealand, slate roofs are highly durable and long-lasting, and they often increase a home’s value.
Wooden roof systems
Wooden roof systems are coveted for their naturalistic appeal. They provide that rustic ‘naked’ look while still enhancing stability and structure.
The advantages of high-quality roof systems
High-quality roof systems make all the difference when it comes to the stability and style of your home. From its insulation to its accessories, every component of a roof system provides critical functions for the home, from warmth to reinforcement. The robustness of aluminium is unmatched, increasing your architectural options as the structure can support greater weight. Green roofs, on the other hand, will limit the possibility of slats or tiles but enhance the waterproofing of your home, while providing a uniquely beautiful touch.
How to choose roof systems that are right for you
The right roof system for your home will mostly depend on the climatic conditions of your region. Asphalt shingles, slates and tiles are generally acceptable for most homes and have the versatility to match any aesthetic. Aluminium roof systems are ideal for large structures that require greater weight-bearing or are exposed to potentially damaging elements. Green roofs are difficult to establish due to their intricate nature and may not be suitable for temperamental climates in New Zealand, but they are effective in reducing heat absorption.
