Metal roofing misconceptions
Many homeowners hold misconceptions about metal roofing installation
that would prevent them from choosing these superior roofs. When many of us
think of metal roofing, we automatically picture the old corrugated panels that
our grandfathers nailed over the carport or storage shed. When in actuality,
metal roofs are some of the most beautiful and attractive roofs available. There
are a number of great reasons to consider a metal roof for your home, consider
the following:
Safety and Durability
If they are properly maintained, metal roofs will last much longer than
asphalt shingle roofs. It is common to get 50 years service life from a quality
metal roof.
It is easier to install a metal
roof
Metal roofs can be installed faster and easier than most other roofing
systems. In most cases, a metal roof can even be installed directly over your existing
asphalt roof.
Metal roofing is energy efficient
It is reported that a metal roof can save homeowners up to 40 percent
in summer cooling costs. An ENERGY STAR® rated metal roof can be a return on
investment, while at the same time, increase the resale value of a home.
Improve the beauty and value of
your home
Metal roofing is not only available in the classic standing seam style;
they are also manufactured to look like regular shingles, or even cedar shake.
