Homeowner Resources for Metal Roofs

Buying Guide for your Metal Roof

For almost everyone, your home is the single largest and most important asset that you own. Check out our Metal Roof Buying Guide that covers the essential answers to your questions.

Before anything can and should happen, you need to have your roof damage assessed by a professional. Minute details can be the difference between you needing some minor repairs or all our roof replacements.

Minor roof problems quickly get more expensive, by not addressing issues soon will only serve to prevent future headaches. If your roof is beyond repair, it’s time to make the smart choice and replace it.

Certain home repairs can wait – things like burnt-out lightbulbs or a hole in your screened-in porch. A potentially leaky roof is NOT something that can wait – it can quickly lead to mold & mildew issues, not to mention what it can do to your rafters and walls.

Metal Roof vs. Asphalt Shingles

Shingles are incredibly popular because of how simple they are to install while remaining relatively inexpensive. Shingles have their pros and cons, of course as they need more regular repairs and will have to be replaced sooner than almost any other roofing material. Our Gator Metal Roofs come with a lifetime warranty among a long list of other great benefits. Read our Guide to Metal Roofing versus Shingles Here.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roofing

So many different factors are going to go into and affect your final roofing material choice. The average weather in the area you live in is an essential factor to consider. Your overall budget and even how long you plan to stay in the home and your plans for it. Even the color you want can partially dictate what roofing material you choose, as some offer far more and better color options than others.

You also have options that tend to be more expensive upfront but offer longer-lasting value to you. A metal roof can last at least 50 years, if not 100 depending on the type of metal used, the paint used, and how well it was installed.

Take a look at our complete List of Frequently Asked Questions to consider when buying a roof for your home.

Benefits of Metal Roofing

One fantastic upside of choosing a metal roof is that almost every piece can be recycled again and again after it’s served its lifespan as a roof, making them a far more sustainable choice than asphalt shingles. The ability to reflect heat and sunlight makes metal roofs a far more energy-efficient roof as they block the majority of the outside heat from transmitting anywhere close to your home.

Asphalt shingles also have a drastically shorter lifespan than metal roofing. Consequently of that American landfills receive on average 20 billion pounds of old asphalt shingles every year. To make matters worse, asphalt shingles are petroleum-based, further increasing dependency on fossil fuels and polluting landfills.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing customer service. The salesperson really went over and beyond to help us get our roof done at a price we could comfortably afford. The roof was done in a few short weeks and only took two days once the metal was delivered. We love our roof and feel protected knowing we will never have to pay for another roof on this property again. It’s beautiful, affordable and they stand behind the product they deliver. We highly recommend them to everyone and anyone searching for a metal roof for their home.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So I got a metal roof back in July. I ideally wanted to see how well it worked before leaving a review. I have to say, I am impressed. Having a house built in 1952, I have plaster walls which those who have it know that in the summer, it holds SO MUCH HEAT. During the very hot days, (feels like 95 and above) the house would be anywhere from 75-84 inside. The AC is working hard and keeping the temp it should BUT not hard enough. The last few extremely hot days, it has not gotten over 73.  And when not it's is at the temp it is set which is awesome.
Also, they mentioned my bill would be less over the next year. Funny thing is, I see it already. JUST one month, my light bill has gone DOWN from $122.00. So I know by all of this that the roof is working.
I am eager to finish working on the house and the roof helps with our motivation to complete all of our projects. The salesman was VERY informative and honest. He did not sugar coat anything which is very helpful and something I look for in a business transaction.  We will pay this off more than HALF the time of a mortgage which is something we are happy about.
I can't saw enough about how happy we are with the roof. I would recommend it if you want lower bills, cooler home, not wanting to take out another mortgage and it has lifetime warranty which will look great when you sell your house.
