Metal Roofing Materials

Metal roofing is made from an alloy or mix of metals (zinc, copper, steel alloys) typically used for industrial purposes. The primary benefit of using metal roofing is that it can improve the energy efficiency and weather protection of your home or commercial building. Metal roofs also have other benefits, such as being resistant to fire, allowing for better ventilation, and making installing solar panels and wind turbines easier.

How Metal Works On Your Roof

Metal roofs can significantly reduce the amount of heat that radiates into your home, which will help keep your residence and its occupants cooler in summer and warmer in winter. The critical thing to remember with a metal roof is that it needs to be properly installed and maintained to achieve these benefits. If not done correctly, you may have leaks or other weathering and oxidation problems.

In addition, a metal roof can also increase the value of your home since it’s an equity feature rather than something that needs regular repair or replacement, like shingles or tiles. So if you’re looking for a long-term solution for cooling and heating your house, consider investing in a metal roof!

Metal Roofing Cost

The cost of metal roofing does vary widely depending on a number of factors: your roof size (how many squares?), the type of metal material being used (copper is very expensive), and the complexity of the installation. On average, you can expect to pay between $5,000 and $20,000 for a metal roof, with the average cost being around $12,000. An additional factor has been these last few years of COVID with supply and manufacturing disruptions which have caused shortages, increased material costs, and caused delays.

Some of the factors that can affect the cost of a metal roof include:

  1. The type of metal: Different types of metal, such as steel, aluminum, and copper, can have different price points.
  2. The style of roofing: Standing seam roofing and shingles are more expensive than corrugated roofing.
  3. The pitch of the roof: A steeper roof will be more expensive to install than a lower slope roof.
  4. The location of the building: The cost of labor and materials can vary by region.
  5. The complexity of the installation: A complex roof with many angles and valleys will be more expensive to install than a simple roof with few angles.

It’s important to get multiple quotes from qualified professional roofing contractors before making a decision on a metal roof, as prices can vary significantly. It’s also a good idea to do some research on the different types of metal roofing available and the pros and cons of each to determine which option is best for your residence or commercial building.

What is a Standing Seam Metal Roof?

A standing seam metal roof is a type of metal roof that uses seams to create an unusually even and flush surface. The seams are typically concealed with flashing or gutter systems, which protect the underlying membrane from weather damage and decay.

Standing seam roofs have several significant benefits over other types of roofs: 

  • They last longer than other types of roofs due to their seamless design.
  • They are less expensive to install than other roofs since they do not require additional framing work.
  • They allow more natural light in a building, creating a feeling of openness and brightness.
  • Because they are so smooth and even, standing seam metal roofs resist water infiltration better than other roofs. They can be used in areas where heavy rainfall is expected (such as California).

What are Metal Roofing Panels?

Metal panels are sheets of metal that are used to cover the roof of a building. They are made from a variety of materials, including steel, aluminum, and copper, and can be used on both residential and commercial buildings.

There are several advantages to using metal panels:

  • Durability: Metal roofing panels are very durable and can last for decades with proper maintenance.
  • Weather resistance: Metal panels are resistant to wind, hail, and other severe weather conditions.
  • Energy efficiency: Metal panels can reflect sunlight and help to keep a building cool, which can reduce energy costs.
  • Low maintenance: Metal panels do not require painting or sealing and are easy to clean.
  • Recyclability: Metal panels are 100% recyclable, which makes them an environmentally friendly choice.

There are several types of metal panels to choose from, including standing seam, corrugated, and shingles. It’s important to consider the specific needs and characteristics of your building when selecting the right type of metal roofing panel.
