In rural areas, building a house is a major event, not only related to the comfort and safety of living, but also reflects the economic and social status of the family. Therefore, when building a house, rural residents will consider many factors, such as the style, area, structure, function, etc., the most important of which is the roof of the house.
The roof is the "head" of the house, which must not only be beautiful, but also durable, able to withstand wind and rain, fire prevention, heat insulation, sound insulation, etc. So, what kind of roof should be chosen for building houses in rural areas, and why are resin tiles, which were once all the rage, now rarely used? Next, let's explore this question.
First, the advantages and disadvantages of resin tiles
Resin tile is a new type of building material made of polymer resin as the main raw material and pressed at high temperature. It appears in order to solve some defects of traditional tiles (such as ceramic tiles, cement tiles, color steel tiles, etc.), such as heavy weight, fragility, rust, fading, poor thermal insulation, etc.
Resin tiles have many advantages, such as lightweight, beautiful, durable, heat insulation, sound insulation, etc., which can bring a better living experience to rural residents. The lightness of resin tiles can reduce the burden on the roof, reduce the cost of the house, and also facilitate transportation and installation.
The weight of resin tiles is only 1/6 of that of traditional tiles, and only 4-6 kg per square meter, so that there is no need for too thick beams and walls to support, nor too much manpower and material resources to carry and lay.
The aesthetics of resin tiles can be matched according to the style of the house and personal preferences to form a beautiful roof landscape. Resin tiles are available in a variety of colors, including red, green, blue, and gray, and will not fade due to sun and rain.
There are a variety of patterns on the surface of the resin tile, such as antique tile, imitation glazed tile, imitation wood grain tile, etc., which increase the three-dimensional sense and texture of the roof. The durability of resin tiles can ensure the long-term use of the roof, and it will not be deformed, cracked, and fallen off due to various factors.
The service life of resin tile can reach more than 30 years, and it has the characteristics of fire prevention, anti-corrosion, mildew prevention, insect resistance, etc., and can adapt to various harsh climates and environments. The thermal insulation of resin tile can effectively reduce the temperature of the roof, improve indoor comfort, and save the energy consumption of air conditioning.
The thermal insulation performance of resin tiles is 3-4 times that of traditional tiles, which can block the heat radiation of the sun, so that the temperature inside the house is 10-15°C lower than that outside. The sound insulation of resin tile can reduce the interference of noise such as rain and wind sound, and create a quiet living environment. The sound insulation performance of resin tiles is also better than that of traditional tiles, which can absorb and reflect sound waves and reduce sound propagation.
Resin tile seems to be a very desirable roofing material, but why is it not widely used? The price of resin tile is 2-3 times that of traditional tile, and it costs 100-200 yuan per square meter.
This is a large expense for some rural residents whose economic conditions are not very good, and the installation of resin tiles also requires professional workers, which increases labor costs. There are many brands of resin tiles on the market, and the quality varies.
The production process of some resin tiles is not advanced, or the production process is not standardized, which will lead to unstable quality of resin tiles, bubbles, cracks, color differences and other problems, which will affect the performance and appearance of resin tiles. These problems make some rural residents lack confidence in resin tiles and dare not try them easily.
Second, the comparison of other tiles
In addition to resin tiles, there are other roofing materials to choose from for rural construction, such as ceramic tiles, cement tiles, color steel tiles, etc. Each of these tiles has its own characteristics and advantages and disadvantages, let's compare them one by one.
Ceramic tile: Ceramic tile is a traditional roofing material with a long history and culture. The advantages of ceramic tiles are beautiful, elegant, durable, fireproof, waterproof, etc., which can add a kind of simplicity and charm to the house. The disadvantages of ceramic tiles are large weight, fragile, poor thermal insulation, high price, etc., and require strong load-bearing structures and maintenance costs.
Cement tile: Cement tile is a relatively new roofing material, which is made of a mixture of cement, sand, stones, etc. The advantages of cement tiles are lightweight, strong, durable, waterproof, fireproof, etc., which can adapt to various climates and environments. The disadvantages of cement tiles are monotonous color, easy to fade, poor heat insulation, easy water seepage, etc., which need to be painted and maintained regularly.
Color steel tile: Color steel tile is a kind of roofing material made of colored steel plates after being profiled. The advantages of color steel tiles are lightweight, beautiful, durable, rust-proof, waterproof, etc., and you can choose different colors and shapes according to personal preferences.
The disadvantages of color steel tiles are poor heat insulation, poor sound insulation, easy deformation, easy rust, etc., which need to be installed with insulation and sound insulation layers, as well as regular inspection and replacement. As you can see from the comparison above, each tile has its own advantages and disadvantages, and no tile is perfect.
Therefore, what kind of tile should be selected for rural housing construction should be decided according to your actual situation and needs, such as the structure, style, budget, climate, etc. of the house. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the quality, installation, maintenance and other factors of the tile, and choose the right brand and service provider to ensure the safety and beauty of the roof.
epilogue
In short, resin tiles, which were once all the rage in the countryside, are now rarely used, mainly because of their high price and the uneven quality in the market. Although resin tiles have many advantages, such as lightweight, beautiful, durable, heat insulation, sound insulation, etc., they also have some disadvantages, such as unstable quality, installation requires professional workers, etc.
What kind of tile should be chosen for rural construction, according to their actual situation and needs to decide, do not blindly follow the trend, do not blindly save money, but to consider the performance, beauty, durability, safety and other aspects of the tile, choose the most suitable roof material for yourself.
