If you’re tired of dealing with roofing problems, you’re not alone! So many homeowners gravitate to asphalt because it’s the most common solution. It’s the best “deal” out there and is everywhere! However, when you consider all of the problems and limitations that asphalt has, is it really the best deal? Experts say, no! Asphalt doesn’t hold up in severe weather conditions especially strong winds and only has a shelf life of 10-15 years. That’s it! Over the life of your home, metal roofing is the most economical roofing material available.
When it’s time to replace your roof, there’s a lot to consider. If you want the last roof you’ll ever need than you really should consider a metal roof. Most come with a 50+-year warranty, a hail penetration warranty and a wind warranty up to 120 miles per hour. That’s amazing and a huge difference when you compare it to asphalt. I mean there really is no comparison.
Energy efficiency is another benefit to metal. You will see a reduction in energy costs during summer and winter months. Metal roofing can be installed over an existing roof, which creates even more insulation from temperature extremes. Metal Roofing reflects 70% of the sun’s energy. This minimizes heat retention and as a result less heat is transferred into the building’s structure. In fact, research by the Florida Solar Energy Center showed that metal experienced a 34% less heat gain than asphalt shingles.
