benefits of metal roofing
Improve Homes Curb Appeal
A metal roof can significantly enhance a home's curb appeal by adding a modern, sleek aesthetic and boosting its overall character. Metal roofing comes in a variety of styles and colors that complements various architectural designs and will greatly improve the attractiveness and curb appeal of your home.
Longevity
Metal roofs have a fantastic life expectancy, particularly in comparison to other commonly used roofing materials. Metal roofs have a life expectancy of 40+ years which is far superior to alternatives such as single ply or asphalt shingles which are only expected to last around half as long. The extended lifespan of metal roofing also serves to offset the higher upfront cost.
Safety
Metal roofing has strong fire-retardant properties, meaning that it won’t burn in the event of a fire. This resistance to fire makes the material a safe one. However, it is worth bearing in mind that if metal roofing is installed over combustible materials, this can lower your roof’s fire resistance rating.
Energy Efficiency
Typically, the roof can be an area of a property which can facilitate large amounts of heat loss and gain. This inefficiency can lead to a warmer home in summer and a colder one in winter, thus increasing energy bills. However, metals will reflect radiant heat from the sun which reduces heat gain, keeping your home cooler in summer. What’s more, although metal is not particularly insulating alone, it is very simple to apply effective insulation to metal roofing, ensuring your home stays cozy and your bills lower in winter, too.
Lightweight
Most types of metal roofing are surprisingly lightweight, much more so than alternatives such as tile. This characteristic allows metal roofing to be installed with ease, creating very little stress on the load bearing roof support structures.
Environmentally Friendly
Metal is one of the most eco-friendly and sustainable options you can choose. A lot of metal roofing already contains a percentage of recycled material and, for those with sustainability as a primary concern, you can readily source sheet roofing with a high recycled content. What’s more, once it reaches the end of its useful life, metal roofing can be entirely recycled, preventing any landfill waste whatsoever.
Easy Maintenance
Metal roofs are long lasting, easy and cheap to upkeep during their lifespan. With metal, you can expect a roof which does not crack, split, corrode or mould. With well-installed roofs, you can also expect all rain and snow to run-off the surface smoothly. This creates a roof which will require next to no maintenance input from you throughout its life to keep it looking great and functioning perfectly.
Increase Property Value
Not only making your home or building more energy efficient, but metal roofing can also actually increase the value of your property. Eco-friendly, energy efficient properties are increasingly in demand and research has found that buildings with the best energy efficiency ratings – such as those with a well-installed, insulated metal roof – can command higher rent and resale prices.
