Orleans Parish Roofing: A Unique Challenge
Orleans Parish, Louisiana presents a unique set of challenges for roofing due to its specific climate and historical architecture.
Key Factors Affecting Roofing in Orleans Parish
Hurricane-prone climate:
The area is susceptible to hurricanes and tropical storms, requiring roofs to be highly resistant to high winds and heavy rainfall.
Historic preservation:
Many buildings in the French Quarter and other historic districts have architectural restrictions, limiting roofing material choices.
Subsidence:
The city's foundation has been impacted by factors like sea level rise and land loss, which can affect roof structure and performance.
GT Roofs Suggests these considerations:
Given these factors, common roofing materials in Orleans Parish include:
Metal roofing:
Known for its durability, wind resistance, and longevity, metal roofing is a popular choice.
Impact-resistant shingles: These shingles offer better protection against hail and high winds compared to standard asphalt shingles.
Tile roofing:
While more expensive, clay or concrete tiles are highly durable and resistant to weather extremes.
Local building codes:
Adhering to Orleans Parish building codes is essential for permitting and insurance purposes.
