Metal roofing is fast becoming the most popular alternative to tile and shingle roofing, and for good reason. It’s a reliable material that boasts superior protection and guaranteed to last a long time. It might even outlast your home!
But what are the other benefits of this roofing system? Nuss Construction Company discusses more.
Longer Lifespan
An asphalt or concrete shingle roof lasts approximately 20 to 25 years, but this isn’t accounting for the elemental damage it’s bound to experience. Metal roofing, on the other hand, has an average lifespan of 50 years, with some even going on for as long as 70 years!
Easier to Install
Our team recommends using metal roofing when you do a home improvement project. Why? Apart from being the easiest material to install, it’s not fragile unlike other materials, and comes in multiple sections ranging from 12 to 36-inch wide panels. Our team can install these quickly and in some cases, we would even be done before the day’s end.
Metal Roofing is Cool Roofing
Metal actually isn’t a good conductor of heat, and this is why certain metal roofing systems are fireproof. Because of its low heat conduction, it reflects heat instead of absorbing it. This means that a house with a metal roof cools down easier, helping you save on cooling costs when the heat increases.
