Im looking for the ultimate Eichler roof, as my roof is getting old and needs to be replaced. Is there such a thing?
When it comes time to replace or renew the roof of their home, Eichler owners have a more difficult time making a decision on how to proceed than the average homeowner, who typically settles on shingles, shingles, or shingles (albeit of different types). The flat or minimally sloped roofs that crown nearly every Eichler ever built — even the ’60s-era center gable models are more flat than not — lend themselves to a range of roofing materials. From the old standby tar-and-gravel, to modified bitumen three-ply, polyurethane foam, or single-ply systems (such as the Duro-Last product), the homeowner must sort through a range of conflicting opinions and choices, guided by their needs, budget, and prior choices.
