Advantages like longevity, durability, and sustainability make metal roofing an ideal solution for building owners looking to maximize the return on investment of their roof.
With a 50-60-year lifespan and minimal maintenance, metal roofing is an ideal solution for any building owner willing to make a long-term investment in their building's roof.
And unlike other roofing materials, metal roofs are incredibly durable.
In fact, because metal roofing is so durable, some insurance companies offer discounts for buildings with properly installed metal roofs. In some areas that are hurricane prone building codes are also beginning to recommend metal roofing as the preferred roofing material because of its durability.
Another eco-friendly advantage of metal roofing is that when an asphalt roof that is being replaced with a metal roof, often the metal roof can be installed directly over the existing roof. So, in addition to keeping non-recyclable materials out of landfills, the lack of tear-off expenses and disposal fees can help offset the costs of a metal roof.
