Metal Roofs: Shining Armor for Your Home

HomeBlogMetal Roofs: Shining Armor for Your Home

If you’ve relegated metal roofs to coastline shacks or ice cream flavors, think again. Metal roofs provide many of the same benefits as their shingle and other material counterparts, and they also provide you with some unique perks you can’t get with other types.

Metal Roofs: Shining Armor for Your Home

  • Energy efficiency: With the right type of metal and ventilation, metal roofs help homes absorb less heat, thereby reducing energy consumption to keep your home comfortable in hot weather.
  • Environmental impact: Are you concerned about the impact of your carbon footprint? Unlike other roofing materials, a metal roof is recyclable. It’s also often made from a considerable portion of recycled components as well.
  • Installation: Metal is oftentimes lighter weight than its wood or asphalt counterparts, which is great news for the building’s foundation. Depending on the variety of metal used, you will not be limited to sheets associated with commercial buildings. Some types, including galvanized steel, are available in shingles and tiles. Not a fan of rain pounding on a metal roof? Insulation can muffle the reverberation for quieter rain showers.
