How does an aluminum roof outperform a concrete roof in terms of moisture resistance?

Aluminum roofs significantly outperform concrete roofs in moisture resistance, which is vital to maintaining the integrity of the building and the health of its occupants. Concrete is a naturally porous material, meaning it can absorb and retain water. This absorption can lead to serious problems over time, such as mold and mildew growth, unsightly damp spots, and gradual structural deterioration. It can also cause corrosion of the reinforcing steel within the concrete, weakening the entire building. In contrast, aluminum is completely non-porous. Our aluminum roofs form an impervious barrier to water, preventing any leakage or moisture absorption. This property makes them ideal for high-humidity environments such as indoor pools, coastal areas, and commercial kitchens. Additionally, aluminum does not rust or corrode from moisture, ensuring the roof remains intact and beautiful for years without the worry of water-related damage that concrete roofs suffer.
