<p>A roofing panel and method of making the roofing panel and method of making a weather-resistant roof without the use of shingles are disclosed. A roofing panel l comprises a sheathing panel 2. One side of the sheathing panel 2 is coated with roofing granules 3 which have been adhesively bonded to the sheathing panel 2 with adhesive 4. In a preferred embodiment, the roofing panel 1 has a narrow border 5 along at least one edge of the granule/adhesive coated sheathing panel 2 in which the roofing granules 3 are substantially excluded. The method of constructing a weather-resistant roof without the use of shingles, comprises attaching a roofing panel 30 to roof support 31 and positioning and attaching an additional roofing panel 30 to the roof support 31. The seam between the abutting roofing panels 30 is sealed with caulk or a weather-resistant tape. A method of constructing a weather-resistant roof at its peak comprises attaching a first roofing panel 63, having a side edge, proximate the peak and attaching a second roofing panel 63, having a side edge, proximate the peak and oppositely disposed from the side edge of the first panel 63. A ridge vent 60 is then secured to the first and second roofing panels 63.</p> |
