Why Metal Roof is a Good Choice
Metal roofs, in general, are the most long-lasting and dependable type of roofing option for any home. While considerably more costly compared to other roofing materials, metal roofs are far and away a better investment in the long run.
- For starters, metal roofs extremely durable and resistant to damage. They can withstand up to 140 mile per hour winds. In terms of decay, they are resilient enough to withstand most corrosive materials and will not suffer bold and other forms of biological or organic rot.
- Because they do not absorb sunlight and other forms of heat, metal roofing can cut up to a fourth of your cooling bills. They can also protect you from dangerous ultraviolet rays.
- Metal is incombustible. Not only will it not catch on fire, but metal roofs can also protect you and your home from nearby fires, brush fire, or lightning.
- Metal roofs can last a very long time. In terms of longevity, they can last from 20 years to even a century, depending on the metal and other factors. It is common to have them outlast the building itself at time, provided the roofing contractor installed the properly.
- Because they are so resilient, metal roofs are environmentally-friendly. Most metal roofing used nowadays have been recycled from one form or another, and can be recycled in turn.
Choose Your Options
There are different types of metal roofs to choose from. Each of these types have distinct characteristics and features that will make them ideal for certain situations. You can contact us at Energy Roofing to help you with your decision.
- Zinc
Among all types of metal roofing, zinc is the lowest in price. The ease in which you can shape zinc lends it favorable for commercial buildings’ occasional demand for complex shapes. Another plus is that zinc is able to form a protective layer around itself to prevent it from further damage. The downside, however, is that this protective layer turns the roof into a blue-grey hue, which can be unattractive.
- Aluminum
Aluminum is so resistant to corrosion and oxidation that it is the choice material for coastal buildings and any other structures which will be regularly exposed to harsh conditions. Its reaction to oxygen forms a protective layer which not only prevents further corrosion. However, aluminum roofs are thinner than other types, and the protective feature it offers can be duplicated cheaper in steel roofs.
- Copper
Metal roofs in in history began with copper. Its color gives a beautiful reddish-golden glow on roofs, making it the choice for important landmarks. Because it is so soft, it minimizes the problem of a noisy roof during rains. At the same time, it is also more resistant to hailstones and other solid falling objects which would otherwise shoot through harder metal roofs
- Steel
A mixture of iron and other metals with three basic types. Weathering provides a pop in color, galvanized steel as the most common of its type, and galvalume that has better durability and lifespan.
