Are Metal Roofs Durable?

When properly installed, metal roofs can withstand wind gusts up to 140 mph. Most metal roofs will not corrode in Wildwood, MO, as long as the right type is chosen for this area’s climate. Coatings and treatments are available to provide even more protection.

Depending on the thickness of the metal you choose, metal roofing can withstand hail of up to 2″ in diameter, as well as other impacts such as blown debris. The thickness is referred to as “gauge,” with the smaller numbers indicating thicker and stronger material. For example, 29 gauge is thinner than 26 gauge, of the two most common thicknesses available. 26 gauge is much more resistant to denting from hail than 29 gauge.

It is important to note that sometimes hail does still dent metal roofs. Cook Roofing Company suggests that you maintain insurance coverage on your new metal roof, even though carriers often suggest an exclusion to save money. Call us at (417) 334-4238 to find out more about metal roofs today.

Are Metal Roofs More Expensive Than Shingle Roofs?

While a shingle roof may cost less upfront, the long-life and durability of a metal roof can save money in the long run. A standing seam metal roof, for example, can cost two to three times the amount of a traditional shingle roof, but can last anywhere from 40-60 years. If you plan on staying in your current home long enough a metal roof will likely benefit you, although when you do sell your home the addition of a metal roof should make your home value go up.

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 Wildwood, 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.

FAQ

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.

Do metal roofs attract lightning?

This is a major concern for many homeowners who are evaluating their options in roofing materials. A metal roof does not increase the chances of your home getting stroke by lightning. In fact, if your roof is struck by lightning, a metal roof can reduce the chances of your home catching on fire as it can discharge the electrical charge. In addition to this, it is non-combustible.

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.
