As more and more metal roofs show\u00a0up on homes,\u00a0people are starting to take a serious look at these\u00a0interesting\u00a0structures.\u00a0\u00a0If you\u2019ve been wanting to\u00a0know more about modern metal roofs, here are\u00a0some useful facts.<\/p>\n

\"strongCool in the summer<\/h2>\n

Contrary to popular\u00a0misinformation, many styles of\u00a0metal roofs act as sun and heat blocks on top of\u00a0your home.\u00a0\u00a0Their special coating\u00a0reflects the rays of\u00a0the sun away from the roof, resulting in cooler\u00a0interior\u00a0temperatures and less money spent on\u00a0cooling bills.<\/p>\n

Long-lasting<\/h2>\n

Properly installed, a metal roof\u00a0may be the last roof\u00a0you ever install on your home.\u00a0\u00a0A metal roof\u2019s\u00a0lifespan can be 40 or 50 years\u00a0or more \u2013 with\u00a0minimal maintenance during that time.\u00a0\u00a0By contrast,\u00a0an asphalt shingle roof may perform\u00a0for 12 to 15\u00a0years.<\/p>\n

Amazing looks<\/h2>\n

Modern metal roofing materials\u00a0are available in a\u00a0wide range of designs, shapes and colors, making it\u00a0easy to\u00a0get a new roof that looks beautiful<\/a> and\u00a0perfectly matches your home\u2019s\u00a0architecture.<\/p>\n

Increased home value<\/h2>\n

A metal roof is seen as a big\u00a0positive by many\u00a0homebuyers, who may be willing to spend more on a\u00a0home when\u00a0they know it will be years before the\u00a0roof needs replacing.<\/p>\n

No rust<\/h2>\n

Metal roofing products can be\u00a0coated with specialized\u00a0metallic paint that prevents rain from causing\u00a0rust.\u00a0\u00a0Metal roofs look great year after\u00a0year.<\/p>\n

Ultra-durable<\/h2>\n

Let the environment throw what it\u00a0wants at a metal\u00a0roof, and the roof will win every time.\u00a0\u00a0The\u00a0sturdiness of these roofs makes them virtually\u00a0impossible to damage with hail, strong winds,\u00a0intense heat or freezing cold.<\/p>\n

Installed over your existing roof<\/h2>\n

In most cases, a new metal roof\u00a0can be installed\u00a0right on top of your existing roof.\u00a0\u00a0This means\u00a0there\u2019s no time and expense\u00a0involved in tearing off\u00a0the current roof.<\/p>\n

\"Metal<\/p>\n

Environmentally friendly<\/h2>\n

When a metal roof<\/a> finally does\u00a0need to be replaced,\u00a0what happens to the old roof?\u00a0\u00a0It can be recycled\u00a0and live to fight another\u00a0day.\u00a0\u00a0Not the case with\u00a0asphalt shingle\u00a0roofs, which contribute more than 10\u00a0million tons of waste to U.S. landfills\u00a0every year.<\/p>\n

No leaks<\/h2>\n

Metal roofs don\u2019t leak.\u00a0\u00a0This is a big factor to\u00a0consider when looking\u00a0into a metal roof.\u00a0\u00a0You\u2019ll be\u00a0free of the\u00a0hassle and expense of routine leak repair\u00a0that is the norm with many other\u00a0roofing materials.<\/p>\n

No lightning concerns<\/h2>\n

The truth is, metal doesn\u2019t\u00a0attract lightning.\u00a0\u00a0Rather,\u00a0lightning\u00a0tends to strike the tallest object in its area,\u00a0such as trees or a lightning\u00a0rod.\u00a0\u00a0If lightning does\u00a0strike a metal\u00a0roof, the energy will be conducted\u00a0throughout the structure instead of placing\u00a0all its\u00a0force on the strike point and causing severe\u00a0damage.<\/p>\n
