Roofing brand
DECRA
#1 stone-coated steel roofing, built for impact, wind, and fire.
About this brand
Stone-coated steel with a long track record
DECRA starts with a steel base. Stone granules bonded to the surface give you profiles that read like tile, shake, or shingle.
Most lines carry UL 2218 Class 4 impact. That matters in Colorado hail country. Many carriers discount Class 4 roofs.
Published wind ratings run into hurricane-zone territory when the system is installed to spec. Fastener pattern and clip layout are not interchangeable with generic metal installs.
The brand has been in stone-coated steel for decades. Inventory and contractor training are easier to find than on niche imports.

Products and colors
Villa Tile
This is the Spanish barrel look without the weight and breakage you get from real clay. Stone-coated steel sits light on the roof and handles hail and wind. Good when you want that Old World profile with less fuss.
DECRA Tile
Gives you that Mediterranean scalloped look in steel instead of fragile clay. Colors read like traditional tile from the street. I put this on when the HOA wants that profile but the homeowner is done with broken tiles every storm.
Shake XD
Thicker profile than their standard shake so the shadow lines really pop. If you are chasing that hand-split look with steel, this is the one folks usually land on. Fewer worries than real wood in our dry summers and fast weather swings.
DECRA Shake
Slimmer shake profile than the XD line, still reads like cedar from the curb. Lighter on the checkbook in some cases and a solid option when you want the wood-look in steel. Same stone coating and steel backbone as the rest of the line.
Shingle XD
Looks like a heavy architectural shingle because the edges are built thick. It lays flatter in the hand than a true shake profile. I suggest it when someone wants the asphalt look but is tired of replacing shingles every decade.
