You’ve decided to invest in a new metal roof for your home or commercial business – congratulations! You will reap the benefits of this investment over many years. It’s a great idea to understand what you might need to include in your budget.
Metal roofs are more expensive than asphalt, but they have a substantially longer life expectancy, which helps to balance the initial outlay. Metal roofs can last at least 50 years or more before replacement and may be the more cost-effective option in the long run. They will not require high maintenance for decades. Other types of roofs might need to be replaced 2-3 times throughout the life of a metal roof. And should you decide to sell your home, your metal roof may cinch the deal!
Metal roofing may also lower your home insurance bill. Metal roofing is less prone than other types of roofing to fail in severe winds, fire, and heavy rain. Speak with your insurance provider and see if you will be saving year-after-year on your home insurance. It is important to discuss your plans with your insurance company, as metal roofs are worth more and it would be more expensive for the insurance provider to make any replacements if need be.
