\"MetalYour roof is arguably the most critical element of your home. It not only protects the structure from weather-related events, but it also gives your home its distinct appearance. Storm-related damage is one of the most common reasons for a roof replacement. So, naturally, you want a roof that will be resilient and last as long as possible. With that in mind, here are five qualities that make metal roofs more resilient.<\/p>\n

Fire Protection<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One of the essential qualities of a roof is its ability to withstand the ravages of a fire. Metal roofs made with steel have a Class A fire rating and offer the most fire protection than any other roofing material.<\/p>\n

While asphalt shingles and different types of materials provide some fire protection, they are combustible materials and can ignite from a hot ember or lightning strike. The Federal Emergency Management Association (FEMA) recommends homeowners residing in fire danger zones to install fire-resistant roofing materials<\/a> such as metal to protect their homes against fire.<\/p>\n

Water Resistance<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Your roof takes the brunt force of nature, and that often includes exposure to rain events like storms, snow, and hail. The good news is that metal roofs offer superior moisture protection. But galvanized steel, stainless steel, and copper are also resistant against rust and corrosion. They also don\u2019t chip or crack. When you have a roofing material like metal that not only repels water but also resists rust and corrosion, your home is less susceptible to roof leaks. Plus, with so many metal roofing design options and color choices, you can have both the appearance you desire and a quality roof.<\/p>\n

Wind Resistant<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"NaplesFor many homeowners residing along the southeast coast, its not the rain, but the high winds that are most damaging to roofs. Tropical storm winds that are 70 mph or less is enough to blow off some traditional roofing materials like wood shake or clay tiles. \u00a0Even just minor roof damage can expose the roof to leaks and expensive repairs. Many metal roofing systems can withstand up to 140 mph hurricane-force winds, which is equivalent to a category four hurricane on the Saffin-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale and an F-2 tornado on the Fujita Scale.<\/p>\n

Strength<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There is nothing more robust than a quality metal roof. Metal roofs have the strength to withstand just about anything that Mother Nature throws at it. They are impervious to warping, cracking and rust and require very little maintenance to retain its beautiful appearance.<\/p>\n

Longevity<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With a life span of 50 years or more, a professionally installed metal <\/a>roof outlasts other roofing materials by a wide margin. It just might be the last roof replacement your home will ever need. You can even repaint it to give it a fresh new appearance.<\/p>\n
