Let’s face it, roofs are pretty boring, and most of the time they just sit and do nothing. You probably don’t notice them. Unless of course you have a problem. A leak. Traditional asphalt roofs have a shelf life of typically 10-15 years. After that, you will either need to replace it or have some extensive repair work done.  Most experts will advise that you just replace the whole thing after so many years have gone by because repairs will really only act like a band aid and temporarily fix the problem.

If the idea of having to replace your roof after just 10-15 years makes you cringe, you should consider a metal roof. While asphalt roofs quickly diminish in value as they age, metal roofs provide the following lasting benefits:

• Proven performance expectation of 50+ years
• Beautiful styles to match any home or neighborhood
• Interlocking panels for maximum wind resistance
• Fire resistance
• Energy efficiency by keeping homes cooler
• Low weight to help preserve structural integrity and life
