Metal roofing can stand punishment
Once
again, North Carolina finds itself waiting to see what a hurricane will do.
With any luck, Matthew will turn west and leave the Charlotte and Concord, NC area
unharmed. But all of North Carolina east of the mountains is a little prone to
hurricanes. Few types of roofing hold up better than metal. According to the
Metal Roofing Association, non-metal roofs last an average of 17 years, but
metal roofing can last 40 to 60 years or more with proper maintenance, and a
standing seam roof is especially leak-resistant. A metal roof can cut
homeowners’ insurance premiums by up to 35 percent in some states.

Charlotte’s best contractors
The
exact price of the roof depends on the metal and type of roofing. The least
expensive metals for roofing are steel and aluminum. Copper is the most
durable, but also (along with zinc) the most expensive. Ask your roofing contractor for a price list.
