Metal Roofing & Siding

Metal roofs are a popular choice for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings due to their durability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal.

Steel: Often coated with a layer of zinc (galvanized) or a zinc-aluminum mixture (galvalume) to prevent rust and corrosion.

Advantages:

• Durability: Metal roofs can last 40-70 years, depending on the material. They withstand extreme weather conditions, including heavy snow, hail, and high winds.
• Energy Efficiency: Reflective coatings can reduce cooling costs by reflecting sunlight, keeping buildings cooler.
• Low Maintenance: Metal roofs require less maintenance compared to other roofing materials like asphalt shingles.
• Fire Resistance: Metal roofs are non-combustible and offer excellent fire resistance, which can be an advantage in areas prone to wildfires.

Environmental Impact: Most metal roofing materials are recyclable, and many are made from recycled content, making them an eco-friendly choice.

Metal Siding

Metal siding is a popular choice for both residential and commercial buildings due to its durability, low maintenance, and modern aesthetic.

Steel Siding:

• Very strong and durable, ideal for areas with harsh weather conditions.
• Can be treated to resist rust and corrosion.
• Available in in a variety of finishes and colors and galvanized

Benefits of Metal Siding:

• Durability: Resistant to weather, insects, and fire.
• Low Maintenance: Requires minimal upkeep compared to wood or vinyl siding.
• Energy Efficiency: Can reflect sunlight and reduce cooling costs in hot climates.
• Sustainability: Often made from recycled materials and can be recycled at the end of its life.

Considerations:

• Cost: Generally more expensive than vinyl or wood siding.
• Installation: Requires skilled labor to install properly.
• Thermal Conductivity: Metal can conduct heat, so proper insulation is necessary to prevent energy loss.
