Is Metal Roofing a Smart Investment?

Been busting out buckets when the rain comes? Maybe it’s finally time for a roof replacement. If you ask your local roofer, they’ll most definitely recommend a metal roof over a typical asphalt roof.

You might be wondering why you should choose a metal roof. For starters, it’s one of the most common and highly suggested roofing systems that can endure extreme weather conditions. It works well especially when there’s heavy snow and rain, it won’t burn in case a fire breaks out, and it resists high winds.

Here’s a few more reasons why a metal roofing system is a smart investment:

Reduced Electric Bills

Depending on the weather conditions in your area, a metal roof can save you up to 40% of your annual energy bill. During summer, it can give you a much cooler environment since it can reflect heat. Meanwhile, a metal roof can bounce back heat rising from your homes during winter, saving you from wasting money on heaters.

Extremely Durable

You’ll barely need to file a roof insurance claim when you choose a metal roof. It is durable and can withstand extreme winds, debris and heavy downpours. Moreover, if it gets damaged, repairing it will not be as costly as fixing wood and asphalt shingles.

Lasts Up to 70 Years

With proper maintenance, a metal roofing system can stay strong and sturdy for a long period of time. Meanwhile, an asphalt roof can get easily damaged, and shingles can curl and break. Additionally, pests don’t easily damage metal roofs compared to  wooden ones.

With all these advantages we lined up, we know some of you are already convinced but are still worrying about the metal roofing cost. However, weighing how sturdy and low-maintenance it is, this is a win-win investment for every homeowner.
