Metal Roofing & Siding Questions and Answers

Q: What are the advantages to having a metal roof as opposed to shingles?

A: Metal Roofing is a much better overall investment &#; it is longer lasting, durable and more weather-resistant (no warping, cracking, or peeling) and it does not burn and is impervious to termites and pests.

In testing, metal systems have withstood winds up to 200 m.p.h. and have historically survived hurricanes and wind storms when other materials have failed.
