\"metalThe \u201cgo-green\u201d movement probably\u00a0can\u2019t even be called a movement these days.\u00a0\u00a0Now it\u2019s a way of life for millions of Americans as people opt for\u00a0cleaner,\u00a0sustainable and natural choices in everything from packaging and\u00a0clothing to home-heating appliances and the roofs that go on their homes.\u00a0\u00a0Yes, even the roofing\u00a0industry has found a\u00a0way to cater to green-minded individuals with recyclable metal roofs.<\/a><\/p>\n

But don\u2019t let the word\u00a0\u201crecyclable\u201d throw you: metal roofs aren\u2019t here-today-gone-tomorrow products to\u00a0be used quickly and recycled like soda cans.\u00a0\u00a0Metal roofs have\u00a0longer lifespans than any common roofing material,\u00a0which is another reason for the growing trend toward these sturdy roofs.<\/p>\n

The landfill dilemma<\/h2>\n

Because metal roofing material,\u00a0like most other metals, can be re-used, only scant amounts of it end up in U.S.\u00a0landfills.\u00a0\u00a0Asphalt shingles, on the\u00a0other hand, which\u00a0are seen on more homes than any other roof material, are not\u00a0recyclable.\u00a0\u00a0It is estimated that upwards\u00a0of\u00a010 billion tons\u00a0of asphalt shingles\u00a0are delivered to rot away\u00a0in American landfills every year.\u00a0\u00a0To many homeowners, this is appalling and\u00a0provides one more reason to go with metal roofs.<\/p>\n

Long life is another reason for the trend<\/h2>\n

To give you an idea of how long a\u00a0well-made and properly installed metal roof can last, imagine a newborn baby\u00a0coming home to a house that just had a metal roof\u00a0installed.\u00a0\u00a0When the child is 7, her parents tell her,\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s going to be your responsibility to put a new metal roof on this house\u00a0when the time comes.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0The child will\u00a0say,\u00a0\u201cBut I only get $15 a week for allowance!\u201d\u00a0\u00a0And the parents will laugh and say, \u201cOh, don\u2019t worry.\u00a0\u00a0You won\u2019t have to replace the roof till\u00a0you\u2019re 60.\u201d<\/p>\n

Warranties of 40 to 50 years\u00a0aren\u2019t uncommon for metal roofs, and a 60-year lifespan isn\u2019t too\u00a0far-fetched.\u00a0\u00a0You might get 12 to 15\u00a0years out of an asphalt shingle roof.\u00a0\u00a0Metal costs more up front, but asphalt costs you \u2013 and the environment \u2013\u00a0a lot more over time.<\/p>\n

Other attractive metal roof benefits<\/h2>\n

Along with being eco-friendly and\u00a0lasting for decades, there are several other benefits to installing a new metal\u00a0roof:<\/p>\n
