Roof and skylight replacement at Tarara Winery (Leesburg, VA)
Metal roofing has become popular in many regions of the country. It can provide a unique, classic look to any home. In addition, they are low maintenance, durable and fire resistant. Metal roofing is available in a variety of styles and materials, including copper and aluminum, which can be installed or replaced as flat or standing-seam sheet metal roofing.
What are the benefits to a metal roof system?
Metal roofing provides homes and buildings with a classic look and will withstand many of the natural elements that can cause wear and tear on other systems. Benefits include:
- Resistance to mold, mildew, insects, rotting, and fire
- Lighter material requires less structural support (a great option for additions!)
- Relatively faster installation time, as compared to shingles, shakes or tiles
- Adaptable to many roof and home styles — flat roofing can be installed on sloped or low-slope roof systems
- Energy Savings
How can a metal roof help increase my energy savings?
With Classic Metal Roof systems homeowners have the option of a product with Kynar 500/Hylar 5000 coating, an advanced heat barrier coating. Reflective pigments in the coating help reflect the sun’s rays away from the home, resulting in a cooler building in the summer. During the winter months this reflective coating speeds up the melting process for any ice or snow sitting on the roof surface. Homeowners with a Classic Metal Roof system can expect to see up to a 20% increase in energy savings per month.
