Synthetic Roofing That Blends Style and Strength

Synthetic roofing gives homeowners the timeless look of slate, shake, or tile — with none of the weight or upkeep. At Boling Construction, we install premium composite and polymer-based roofing systems that mimic high-end materials while delivering industry-leading impact resistance, weather performance, and longevity. If you want your roof to look custom without the cost or complexity, synthetic roofing is a smart, long-term solution for South Central Texas homes.

What Is Synthetic Roofing?

Synthetic roofing refers to engineered materials designed to replicate natural products like wood shakes, slate tiles, or clay — using lightweight, high-durability polymers or rubber-based composites. These systems are built to withstand the toughest weather conditions while offering greater design flexibility and easier installation.

​

Benefits include:

  • Class 4 impact resistance (ideal for hail zones)

  • Lightweight profile — no structural reinforcement needed

  • UV, mold, and moisture resistance

  • Consistent color and shape across the roof

  • Lower lifetime maintenance costs

  • Aesthetic flexibility: slate, cedar, tile, and custom looks available

​

These aren’t cheap imitations — today’s synthetic roofs are architecturally approved and trusted on high-end homes across the country.

Designed for Texas Weather and Homeowners Who Don’t Want Surprises

In South Central Texas, roofs need to be tough, low-maintenance, and ready for sudden shifts in weather. Synthetic roofing materials are engineered to perform through:

​

  • High heat and UV exposure

  • Wind gusts and storm debris

  • Hail impact

  • Freeze-thaw cycles in hill country elevations

​

They’re also a great solution for homeowners who want upscale curb appeal — without worrying about tile cracking or wood decay over time.

Why Choose Synthetic Over Natural Roofing?

Homeowners often come to us considering slate or cedar shake — but many end up choosing synthetic once they understand the full picture. Today’s synthetic roofing materials are engineered to deliver the same premium look as natural products, but without the weight, maintenance, or weather limitations.

​

Compared to traditional slate or wood, synthetic roofing:

  • Weighs significantly less, reducing structural demands

  • Offers greater resistance to cracking, fading, and water damage

  • Requires less ongoing upkeep or treatment

  • Installs faster and more efficiently

  • Costs less over the long term

​

In short, it gives you the elegance of natural materials with the resilience and practicality that Texas homes demand.
