Metal Roofing Matthews, NC
Skywalker Roofing, One of the Area’s Highest-Rated RoofersSkywalker Roofing Company is proud to install metal roofing for both residential and commercial customers in Matthews. Metal roofs are becoming more and more popular among local homes and businesses in our area for a number of reasons, including:
More effective at shedding rain and snow
The makeup and texture of metal roofs is such that rain and snow can be directed off your roof much more efficiently than with other roofing materials. And a well-installed metal roof really doesn’t allow rain or snow a chance to penetrate, so the chances of leaks are greatly minimized as well.
Safety from wind, lightning, and fire
For starters, metal roofs are more wind-resistant than many roofing materials. Some metal roofs are even demonstrated to sustain hurricane-force wind gusts up to 140mph. No material is completely lightning-proof, but metal’s conductive characteristics can actually help to dissipate the effects of a lightning strike. Metal won’t ignite either, so it provides better protection from fire as well.
Maximum durability and resistance to mold, mildew, and moss
The durability of metal is one of its more well-known traits. Metal roofs won’t crack, but rather will expand and contract in response to temperature extremes. A properly-treated metal roof won’t corrode either, and metal is an unfavorable surface for mold, mildew, or moss to be able to take hold.
Metal can be used on roofs of almost any pitch
Some roofing materials are limited to use only on roofs of a certain pitch, but metal works equally well on roofs with a steep pitch or with very little pitch. In terms of roof pitch limitations, no other roofing material is as adaptable as metal.
Lightweight
Metal roofing is more lightweight than many other roofing material options, meaning it puts less stress on your roof, as well as less stress on the infrastructure and foundation of your home, business, or whatever structure you’re covering.
Eco-friendly, energy-efficient, and recyclable
Metal roofs are a more sustainable alternative than materials like traditional asphalt shingles. Metal isn’t a petroleum-based product, and metal roofs are also much longer-lasting than shingles. New metal roofs contain at least a percentage of recycled materials and are 100% recyclable themselves. Metal roofs are also ideal bases for attaching solar panels or rainwater harvesting systems. And thanks to metal’s light-reflecting capabilities, a metal roof can help reduce your air conditioning energy costs, as well.
Unique look and sound
One more feature to consider is the look and sound of a metal roof. Metal roofs have a distinctive look all their own, which can add to your home’s curb appeal. Some metal roofs can even be customized to mimic the appearance of other roofing materials like wood shakes or tiles, if you prefer. And then, there’s the sound quality. Many folks find the pitter-patter of rain on a metal roof to be soothing to the ears.
Metal Roofing Colors Matthews, NC
In the early days of metal roofs, you really didn’t have a lot in the way of color choices – basically, your roof would be the natural color of whatever metal was used to fabricate it. The good news is that today you have more metal roofing color options available than ever before in Matthews, thanks to advances in metal paint and coloring technologies. The question now isn’t what color you can choose for your metal roof; the question is what color CAN’T you choose! There is a wide palette of colors from which you can now select. Just remember that a metal roof can last you a lifetime if properly maintained, so you want to pick a color that you’ll be pleased with for years to come! It’s also best to choose a color that will complement the other colors of your home or business structure, and many customers also like to have their metal roof blend in well with any other surrounding structures. It’s also a good idea to look at color samples in different kinds of light, so you’ll know how it looks on a sunny day versus a cloudy day. Also be aware that the lightness or darkness of the color you choose may have some impact on your roof’s ability to reflect light and heat.
Metal Roofing Cost Matthews, NC
Protecting Your Loved Ones and Possessions Is Worth ItWe know that cost matters to you, whether you’re considering metal roofing cost or the cost of other roofing materials available in Matthews. Let’s face it, price is one of the first things people tend to consider when they’re considering buying anything! At Skywalker, we like to be truthful and transparent with our customers. We’d be lying if we told you that metal roofing materials and labor are the cheapest available roofing option. But while metal roofing may carry a higher price tag than some other roofing materials on the front end, you should also weigh that against the fact that a metal roof can outlast MULTIPLE shingle roofs. A well-made, well-installed metal roof can really last you for a lifetime! You just have to decide whether it’s worth it to you to invest a little more in a quality metal roof that you only have to install once, versus choosing a cheaper roofing material (like shingles) that you may have to replace more than once over the life of your home or business structure.
