The Variety Of Metal Roofing Materials
Metal roofing materials include many metals in a wide range of colors, shapes, and designs. These durable and environmentally friendly materials are found everywhere, topping barns, warehouses, subdivision homes, and California dream houses. They offer every feature found in competing roofing materials and are more durable than any other type.
Steel, aluminum, copper, and alloys, which are made up of two or more minerals, are the main metals used in roofing. The most familiar and basic of these, and the most affordable, is steel. The high end stainless steel variety, of course, is more expensive, being rust proof and treated to weather beautifully. The price of aluminum is coming down; this option is lightweight, rust proof, and equally as durable. Copper is costly but prized for its longevity and its beautifully distinctive color as it weathers; copper also does not rust. An high priced but alluring choice is any one of the alloys, usually steel mixed with zinc, titanium, or other metals for rust resistance and strength.
All metal roofs are long-term gains, as they last for years and require little maintenance when properly maintained. Heavier gauge and more expensive materials require a greater initial investment, but last longer and wear better. They also perform admirably in all weather conditions, increase property and resale values, lower insurance rates, and earn tax credits.
Roofs fashioned of metal come with extended warranties and even longer life expectancies. Baked enamel finishes keep rust away and come in many pleasing colors. Steel shapes easily and a steel roof can now look just like Spanish tile, asphalt shingle, natural slate, or wooden shingles and cedar shakes. While looking like more conventional residential roofs, the imitation can be easier to handle and install, and can weigh less, needing less support or enabling the new roof to be laid over the old.
Wind, snow, hail, and lightening can all be resisted better by a metallic roof. Snow slides off more rapidly, heat reflects more efficiently, lightening is neither drawn nor repelled, but if it does strike, the roof will disperse the impact rather than suffering from one entry point. Metal also is impervious to insects and mold and mildew, it does not burn, and it does not rot.
Roof styles range from the traditional standing seam ribbing to contemporary sheets of roof that appear seamless. They work well on high or low pitched roofs, come in large sections for quick installation, or can be laid in individual units like other shingles. High or low profile, flashy or purely functional, metal can fit any need or design.
Do it yourself is possible with these materials, but it is wise to leave the job to professional installers, who offer warranties on the finished product and understand the stresses the roof will face in its long life. Metal expands and contracts, and all other materials used in the roof will need to allow for this. Insulation, interior climate control, and soundproofing are other facets of installing a roof.
Metal roofing materials can make beautiful statements as well as protect whatever they cover for the lifetime of the building.
