Prominence — Frequently Asked Questions

Q.What makes Prominence 'institutional grade'?

Institutional grade refers to their exceptional durability and resistance to wear, making them suitable for high-traffic public buildings or severe weather conditions. This means they are built to last and perform consistently even under challenging DFW weather scenarios.

Q.Can these tiles be used on both roofs and exterior flooring?

While the description mentions 'floor tiles,' Ludowici's Prominence tiles are primarily designed as a roofing product. Their robust nature and non-skid options refer to their suitability for foot traffic during maintenance on the roof itself, rather than ground-level flooring applications. Always consult ADC Roofing for specific application guidance.

Q.How do customizable colors and blends work?

Ludowici offers an extensive range of standard colors and the ability to create custom color blends. This allows for tailored aesthetics to match specific architectural designs or historical requirements, which is a significant advantage when working to DFW HOA architectural standards.

Q.Does the non-skid surface impact the tile's appearance?

The non-skid surface of Prominence tiles is subtly integrated to maintain aesthetic appeal while enhancing safety for roof access and maintenance. It provides necessary grip without detracting from the tile's elegant ogee-like pattern.

Q.Is the 75-year warranty transferrable if I sell my DFW home?

Generally, Ludowici's material warranties are transferable, but specific terms and conditions apply. ADC Roofing can provide details on the transferability process for the Prominence tile's 75-year material warranty, which can be a strong selling point for properties in the DFW market.
