METAL ROOFING
Our metal roofing systems are durable and long-lasting.
Our metal roofing is designed to provide longevity, durability, and maintain a positive impact on the environment.
Today’s metal roofs are not the typical tin roofs popular of the late 1700s! Environmental studies, and cutting-edge technologies have led to metal roofs making a significant comeback due to their longevity, durability, and positive impact on the environment.
Most customers choosing a metal roof system, base their decision on how long these roofs last and how durable they are. While structurally advanced, metal roofs also offer beautiful profiles and styles to compliment the home and budget of the homeowner.
DESIGN AND INSTALLATION
Metal can be made to look like many different roofing styles such
as cedar shakes, slate, tile, and shingles.
METAL ROOF BENEFITS
LONGEVITY
Metal roofing lasts between 50 and 70 years. An average asphalt roof system typically lasts
between 15 to 20 years. Most manufacturing companies stand strong behind their products offering warranties on metal roofs for 20 to 50 years.
DURABILITY
The durability of metal roofs is unmatched.
Metal roofs can withstand wind gusts up to 140 miles per hour. They shed rain and snow very efficiently because their surface is hard and slippery. The metal panels get warm in the sun, which melts and sheds snow very quickly. And they are resistant to mildew, insects, and rot.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Of all roofing types, metal roofs require the least
maintenance. Unlike tile and asphalt roofs, they require no periodic maintenance. You will probably do absolutely nothing to your metal roof other than hose it off occasionally. However, we highly recommend that one of our licensed, trained contractors inspect your metal roof once a year.
GREENEST
Metal roofs are made with as much as 95% recycled content! When they are replaced, the materials are 100% recyclable. Compare that to asphalt roofs, all of whose replaced materials go to landfills of nearly 20 billion pounds of asphalt every year. Most manufacturers have ENERGY STAR and Cool Roof Rating Council certifications. Because metal roofs reflect heat and minimize midday heat gain, they can reduce cooling costs from 10 to 25%. They also insulate against cold temperatures.
DESIGN & INSTALLATION
Metal roofs come in a variety of metals, colors, panel types, architectural styles, patterns, and designs. There are two basic styles of metal roofs: sheet-like panels and shingles. Which you choose is a matter of personal taste, and of the style that best complements your home.
METAL ROOFING COST
Metal roofs are often higher in price in comparison to asphalt roof systems; however, what they save you in routine maintenance, replacement, and energy costs offsets their initial higher price tag and provides the homeowner with safety and peace of mind.
Because metal roofs are very lightweight, they add no excessive weight to the framework of your home. That means you also save on the engineering costs of adding support to your home’s structure for the roof.
