If you’re a Miami-area homeowner or business owner who needs a new roof you owe it to yourself to consider metal roofing. While asphalt and wood shingles remain popular choices, residential metal roofing has grown significantly over the past several years.
Why choose metal roofing? There are plenty of reasons – including how much of an environmentally friendly option it is when compared to other roofing materials.
Metal Roofs Last a Long Time
It’s hard to beat the durability of a metal roof. A metal roof can last from 40 to 70 years while traditional asphalt materials last 12 to 20 years. Durability is the main reason for a metal roof’s longevity; some metal roofs can withstand wind gusts of up to 140 mph, and won’t corrode or crack.
Moreover, metals roofs require less maintenance, although periodic inspections by a qualified roofing contractor are recommended.
Metal Roofs Are Recyclable
Not only does metal last longer than other roofing materials, but it’s also 100% recyclable at the end of its lifespan. Instead of adding more waste material to the environment, a metal roof is recycled and often used in the construction of a new roof.
Metal Roofs Are Energy Efficient
Another advantage to metal roofing is its energy efficiency. It does a much better job of dissipating heat from the sun than roofs made from other materials. This means your home (and attic) won’t over-absorb the heat and make your house too warm. That’s a big advantage in the summer as your air conditioning doesn’t need to run as often, which also saves money on your energy bill.
Metal Roofs Enhance the Look of Your Home
More good news about metal roofs: they come in a variety of colors, as well as shapes and textures to match your home’s style. You can also paint metal roofs, which means you can change their look without having to get a roof replacement. Metal provides an excellent surface for which a new coating can adhere.
Metal Roofs Increase Your Home’s Value
Florida homes with metal roofs sell for higher prices than those with roofs made of other materials. Metal roofing is a huge selling point for would-be buyers.
