FAQs About Metal Roofing
How long does a metal roof last compared to shingles?
- A standing seam metal roof typically lasts 40 to 70 years, compared to 15 to 20 years for asphalt shingles in our humid climate. That difference is the main reason homeowners choose metal even at a higher upfront cost.
Does a metal roof resist algae better than shingles?
- Yes. The smooth, non-porous surface gives algae nothing to hold onto, unlike asphalt shingles, which contain limestone filler that algae actually feeds on.
Is a metal roof cost worth it if I might sell in a few years?
- It depends on your timeline, but metal roofs are increasingly seen as a selling point given their durability. If you plan to sell within a couple of years, a standard architectural shingle roof may be more cost-effective.
Is metal roofing noisy in the rain?
- With proper installation over solid decking and underlayment, a metal roof isn't noticeably louder than a shingle roof during rain.
