New Metal RoofThe initial expense of metal roofing is often a big deterrent. So in this article, we’ll help you get over the financial hurdle and open your eyes to the many benefits of this type of roofing. Metal is one of the most resilient roofing solutions available because it can withstand extreme weather – and it looks great:

Many insurance companies are prepared to offer discounted premiums to homeowners with metal roofing. Simply put, the company sees you as less of a risk. These discounts can result in significant savings over time. That’s why you should see metal roofing as an excellent investment – one that can save you money. Here’s more:

  • Increased Property Value: Typically, warranties for metal roofs are for 50 years or more. They require very little in terms of maintenance and, more importantly, they don’t depreciate in value. Realistically, you can expect to recoup between 75 and 95 percent of the initial outlay. Furthermore, when you sell your home, you’ll get a better price.
  • Reduced Utility Bills: Standard asphalt shingles absorb sunlight, and the heat is stored in the roof. This causes you to use more energy. Metal roofing has the ability to actually reflect sunlight away. Moreover, it doesn’t store heat, so your home is cooler. Not only can a metal roof reduce your utility bill by up to 40 percent in summer, it’s a much more eco-friendly alternative.

The bottom line is: The price for metal roofing might seem intimidating at first but, if you factor in all the savings, you’ll reap big rewards in the long run.
