You're starting a new house building project and you've got some decisions to make. Should you use spandrel panels, or something else? For us, the answer is simple. A spandrel panel helps save time as it replaces the need for conventional masonry construction. They also provide excellent performance in both sound and fire ratings when manufactured to robust details (compliance with new home minimum sound installation standards). Traditional brick gable ends are open to the elements and cannot be constructed during certain weather conditions. This could mean delays to jobs or high-risk health and safety issues. Our spandrel panels are manufactured with factory fitted slings which make it easy to install as they can be craned into position. The benefit of this is that you don’t need to add an extra lift of scaffolding reducing costs of both labour and scaffolding. All of our spandrel panels are fully designed and manufactured in house to your required specifications. They can be delivered along with roof trusses as part of our roofing package.

Can you put asphalt shingles over an existing roof? In some cases, it is possible to install asphalt shingles over an existing roof, depending on local building codes, the condition of the existing roof, and the number of layers already present. However, it is generally recommended to remove the existing roof before installing a new one to ensure proper installation and prevent future potential issues.
