Steps you can take for your
metal roof
The
advantage of metal roofing is that you might never need to worry about your
roof again. A metal roof lasts as long as you are likely to live, never mind
how long you’re likely to own your current home. Someone who lives in a
Charlotte or Concord, NC home for a long time might replace an asphalt roof
two, three or even four times, but not a metal roof.
There
are, however, steps you can take for more surety:
•
Some metals are bad for each other. Don’t let copper come into contact with
aluminum or galvanized steel, for instance. Your roofer can give you more
information. It’s best to make sure the screws holding the roofing in place are
made of the same metal as the roofing itself.
•
Clean your gutters regularly. Don’t let them become clogged — water pooling on
metal roofing is no good for it.
•
If possible, don’t walk on your roof. You may leave unsightly scuff marks, or
even dent it.
