What’s the Advantage of a Metal Roof?

Metal Roofs Are Eco-Friendly

Unlike traditional asphalt shingles that end up in landfills, metal roofs are made of 100% recyclable materials. Additionally, metal roofs reduce energy costs by as much as 40%. This is because the coating on modern metal roofs has special pigments that reflect, rather than absorb, the sun’s heat. We also specialize in cedar shake and shingle roofing installation which is also an eco-friendly roofing material.

Little to No Maintenance Required

You read that right. Once your metal roof is installed, you can basically forget about it. The weather-resistant material does the work for you. Dirt, grime and leaves will naturally slide off and down the sides. You will never have to worry about blistering, cracks or holes.

Metal Roofs Are Hail-Resistant

According to the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS), metal roofing is far less likely to be punctured by hail than conventional asphalt shingles. That is definitely a benefit, especially in our area.

Types of Metal Roofs We Install

Aluminum Roofing

Aluminum is the most affordable option because it’s lightweight, which cuts down on labor costs. The small spangles achieve a more cohesive look than some of the other options. It’s reflective quality can make it look very bright, however. If you are looking for an all-around durable metal material, aluminum is a great option.

Copper Roofing

Copper roofing is the most expensive type of metal roof material, but its strength makes it a strong contender. Your copper roof can last up to 200 years! The unique look has been a favorite throughout the last century and for good reason – its high thermal conductivity will keep your energy costs low.

Corrugated Metal Roofing

Corrugated metal is galvanized steel that is rolled into a pattern. The two most popular styles of corrugated metal are U-panel and R-panel. Corrugated metal is prefabricated (which saves on cost), lightweight, corrosion-resistant, durable, and easily transported. You can expect this type of metal roofing to last up to 60 years.

Standing-Seam Metal Roofing

Standing seam metal roofing is unique because it has concealed fasteners and interlocking panels to provide supreme waterproof protection. The architectural look creates interest for the eye. Standing-seam metal roofs are an easy way to amp up your home’s style. And, like all metal roofs, they are durable and budget friendly.

Steel Roofing

Steel roofing is manufactured in giant rolls. Next, it’s coated with either zinc or a zinc-aluminum mixture to protect it from oxidation. It comes in a variety of thicknesses to suit your roof’s individual needs. The great thing about it is that it’s like a chameleon. You can make it look like many other roofing types
