Metal Roofs are Aesthetically Appealing

For some people, the look of a nice standing seam metal roof is well-worth the additional cost. The most common metal profiles are aluminum, steel, zinc, copper, and tin, with steel being the most durable and most popular. The style options are endless, and you can even have their shape and texture mimic the look of other materials such as wood.

In terms of metal roofing colors, you can have your roof painted or coated with any color you can imagine. And although it is the most expensive metal roofing, many homeowners install copper roofs because of their natural beauty.

Are Metal Roofs Low Maintenance?

Not only does a metal roof last for many decades, but the upkeep needed is also minimal. Clearing debris, keeping the gutters clean, replacing old gaskets, repainting, and resealing every 20 years, are the only major things you will need to worry about when you install a metal roof.

In Bethlehem, you should not have to worry about corrosion or rust, since metal roofs are designed to be impervious to water and dry out at a faster rate than wood. However, make sure not to allow debris to pile up on your roof or in your gutters as they can cause moisture to pile up, which can cause rust or corrosion over time.

Can Metal Roofs Trap Moisture?

Water can become trapped anywhere, on any roof, because of poor-quality installation or repair. This can eventually cause serious damage to the underlying structure. That's why it's especially important, in an area like Bethlehem, that you get professional installation from experienced and skilled Metal Roof specialists from Cook Roofing Company to install your new metal roof.

Low-grade metals may also be thinner and less durable and more prone to buckling and denting. Thin metal will dent more easily during hail storms and installation. And if using architectural or R panels (exposed fastener metal roofing), the fasteners must be tightened straight, so as not to deform the neoprene washers that seal the fastener holes. Those fasteners must be replaced every so often. Cook Roofing Company can help you decide what kind of Metal Roof is right for your house in Bethlehem.

Is a Metal Roof Low Maintenance?

When choosing a new roof an important question you might ask yourself is “How much time will I have to put into maintaining it?” This is a great question, because no one wants a new roof that requires constant attention and upkeep. Once installed, metal roofs are extremely low maintenance, needing only basic cleaning of major debris they can collect to avoid moisture buildup. Once or twice a year it is beneficial to clear out leaves, branches, or anything a storm might have blown up there to ensure your metal roof dries out properly and no rust or corrosion is able to form.

Major maintenance should be done every 20-25 years in the form of resealing, repainting, and changing out worn-down parts such as gaskets. The specialist at [iss_page_name] have years of experience installing and repairing metal roofs, and will install it correctly the first time so that it remains easy maintenance for you.

FAQ

Will a metal roof be too heavy for small structures?
No. In fact, metal roofs are lighter than asphalt shingle roofs by a greater margin. They are also lighter than slate and concrete tiles. You should not worry about metal roofing overloading your small structure.
Can a metal roof be installed over my old roof?
In most cases, Yes! Metal roofs weigh less than 1.6 pounds per sq. foot. This means that they will rarely overload existing roofs. Metal roofs can be installed over fiberglass or asphalt roofing. The double roofing can even help prevent overheating.
Does it cost more to buy and install a metal roof than a typical roof?
Yes. Metal roofing is considered a premium material, and thus you should expect it to cost more than an asphalt shingle roof. However, in the long-run, it becomes cheaper since it lasts for decades. In addition, your new metal roof will add your home’s resale value and help you save on your energy bills thanks to its reflective effect, which makes it less absorbent of heat.
