Why should I consider a metal roof for my Ft. Worth roofing system?
Metal is one of the most practical roofing materials on the market today. It offers a lifelong alternative to roofing materials such as asphalt, wood and slate.
What does a metal roof look like?
Metal roofing is available today in a variety of styles and colors. Whether you prefer the look of tile, slate, wood shake or traditional standing seam, there is a product to satisfy your taste.
Won’t metal rust or its paint finish fade?
Metal roofs installed by Crosby Roofing are made from the most rust resistant coating on the market today. In addition, they are painted with high performance Kynar500 or Hylar5000 baked enamel.
How long can I expect a metal roof to last before it needs to be replaced?
All Crosby Roofing painted products carry a Lifetime, Non-Prorated Transferable warranty. The Kynar500 / Hylar5000 finish is warranted against fade for 20 years. There are metal roofs that have been protecting structures for more than 100 years.
Can a metal roof be installed over my existing roof?
One of the benefits of metal roofing is its lightweight, which allows it to be installed over existing roofing materials. Crosby Roofing will make an evaluation on whether or not we will need to remove your current roof upon inspection.
Isn’t a metal roof noisy?
This is one of the biggest misconceptions about metal roofing. People often image an old barn with a tin roof where metal is visible to the interior of the structure. On a residence, however, the metal roof is often installed over a solid substrate. Further, attic space and insulation serve as additional sound barriers. Research has proven that metal isn’t any noisier than traditional roofing products.
Is metal roofing expensive?
Metal roofing offers homeowners a lifelong solution. It is an investment in your home’s future. Over the life of your home, metal roofing is probably the most economical roofing material because it will be the last roof you’ll install. Traditional roofing materials have a limited life expectancy before one is faced with the expense of another roofing project.
Does a metal roof get hot?
Metal reflects 70% of the sun’s energy. This minimizes heat retention, and as a result, less heat is transferred into the building’s structure. Additionally, research shows that metal experiences 34% less heat gain than asphalt shingles. Results also indicated that metal roofing offers an effect similar to R-11 insulation on top of the roof during sunny conditions.
Does a metal roof attract lightning?
A metal roof has no greater chance of being hit by lightning than any other type of roof. Lightning is attracted to the highest point, not necessarily metal. A metal roof struck by lightning can help prevent your home from catching fire because it can dissipate the electrical charge and is noncombustible.
