FAQs
How does metal roofing perform under Rockford’s weather conditions?
Metal roofs are highly durable in climates like Rockford’s, which experiences both hot summers and cold, snowy winters. The material sheds snow easily, resists wind uplift, and holds up well against hail due to its impact-resistant properties. This durability ensures a longer lifespan and minimal maintenance compared to other roofing options.
Is a metal roof more expensive than traditional shingles?
Although the upfront cost of metal roofing can be higher than asphalt or other shingle materials, metal roofs often last much longer—sometimes 40 to 70 years or more. When factoring in fewer repairs and potentially lower energy bills, the long-term cost can be more affordable. It’s an investment that usually provides better value over time.
Can metal roofing help with energy efficiency?
Yes. Metal roofing reflects much of the sun’s heat rather than absorbing it, helping keep your home cooler in the summer. This can reduce your cooling costs. Most metal roofing systems also have a built-in airspace between the roof deck and metal panels, which further aids ventilation and energy efficiency.
Is metal roofing noisy when it rains or hails?
A properly installed metal roof includes solid sheathing and insulation that help minimize sound. In fact, many homeowners report that the noise level is comparable to or even less than that of traditional shingles. Installing underlayment and proper insulation greatly reduces the noise level of rainfall or hail.
How long does it take to install a metal roof?
Installation timelines vary depending on the roof’s size, shape, and the complexity of your home’s architecture. However, metal panels are typically larger and easier to handle than smaller, individual shingles. A skilled crew can often complete a metal roof installation in fewer days compared to other materials of similar scope.
Will a metal roof rust or corrode over time?
Modern metal roofing is manufactured with protective coatings designed to resist corrosion, rust, and fading. Galvanized or Galvalume steel roofing contains a protective layer of zinc and aluminum, while aluminum and copper roofing options are naturally resistant to rust. Proper installation and routine maintenance further extend the roof’s lifespan, keeping it looking and performing its best for decades.
