Does a metal roof cost more than a traditional asphalt shingle roof?
A. Because our metal roofing is a premium home improvement product with a life expectancy of hundreds of years and with significant resale value, it is not relevant to compare the cost with low value, short term organic roofing like wood shake or paper composition. It is safe to say that our permanent systems are more costly initially. However, our systems are less expensive than other long lasting roofing materials such as slate, ceramic tile and copper and in most, if not all cases, will outlast and outperform those products. No matter which of our systems you choose, once installed, you’ll never have to worry about your roof again! Plus, your new metal roof will add to the resale value of your home, save you money on your energy bills and maintenance, and give you peace of mind that you’ll never have to re-roof again!
