Metal roofs may seem more expensive in the short term, but they can actually save you money in the long run. They are significantly more durable and long-lasting than traditional shingle roofs – you can expect to get at least 50 years out of your metal roof. They are made of interlocking panels for maximum wind resistance, strengthening them against the elements. They are more energy efficient than traditional shingle roofing, saving you money in utility costs, and weigh less than other roofs; this preserves the structural integrity of your home. Metal roofs are even fire resistant, adding another layer of safety.
