Recycled rubber roof shingles are an innovative roofing material that saves home owners money and saves the environment. Made from recycled tires, these roofing shingles are durable, dependable, and more eco-friendly than ordinary wood or slate. We all know tires are thrown out everyday. They are just dumped and someone has to take them and dispose of them.
Why not take this to your advantage and if you see a bust tire, take it and make shingles from it. Rubber is waterproof and kinda can bounce the hail right off. I am sure Craigslist or Ebay  will have many free tires if you go and pick them up. Hey, if you are clever enough you could re tile your roof with them. Check out the tutorial below.
