Metal Roofing Installation
Your Key to Surviving This Storm Season
This year, the spring storms are back with a vengeance! For people who’ve chosen metal roofing installation, this isn’t a huge issue.
However, if you don’t have a metal roof, then the weekly warnings about torrential downpours, flash flooding, scattered thunderstorms, and strong winds can be pretty intimidating.
Which leads us to ask…
Have you considered metal roofing installation?
Many people have sworn their allegiance to shingles. They’ve always had shingles on their roof, and that’s all they ever plan to use.
These same people hate replacing their shingles. They despise having to get up on their roofs and re-shingle them every few years. And they’re sick and tired of having leaks drip down through their ceilings… But shingles are familiar, so that’s what they stick with
.
Does this sound like the cycle you’ve been living in? Shingle, strong winds, re-shingle, repeat…
Is your roof burdened by layer upon layer of flimsy shingles? Are you ready for a better option?
We dare you to try something different!
Contrary to what you may have heard, installing metal roofing isn’t rocket science. It doesn’t require advanced construction skills. And it won’t leave your house sounding like the inside of an old tin shack.
It will provide you with some incredible benefits:
- Protection against strong winds and fierce storms.
- Long-lasting, quality materials that won’t need replacing every few years.
- Potential reduction in cooling costs.
- Various colors and styles to choose from.
Plus, metal roofs are often made from recycled materials, so they’re more environmentally friendly.
With these benefits in mind, let’s dig a little deeper into the debate…
Metal roofing versus shingles?
Here are a few of the key factors that come up in any discussion about metal roofing versus shingles:
1. Cost
- In the short-term, metal roofing materials are likely to be more expensive than shingles. In the long-term, the benefits of a metal roof will more than tip the balance in your favor.
2. Durability
- You can’t beat metal roofing when it comes to durability. A metal roof can stand up against the fiercest weather any climate throws at it. This is one reason why metal roofing can actually increase the value of a home.
3. Energy-efficiency
- Asphalt shingle roofs absorb energy. That means your shingles make your house even hotter in the summer, which makes your A/C bill more likely to shoot through the roof! (Sorry for the pun…)
On the other hand, a metal roof can actually deflect heat and significantly lower your energy costs.
4. Style
- Metal roofs have become more and more popular over the past several years as people have begun searching for alternatives to shingles. One reason for this is the wide variety of colors and styles which are now available with metal roofs.
So, on top of saving money in the long-run and adding value to your house, you’re also adding curb appeal!
5. Eco-friendly
- As we mentioned before, metal roofing is better for the environment. Because the majority of metal roofing products are made from recycled materials, you’re also making an eco-friendly choice when you go with metal roofing.
