Austin Metal Roof Replacement
The benefits of a Metal Roof System include durability, longevity, energy efficiency, lower insurance premiums and increased sale value. Most metal roofs have a Class 4 hail impact rating, the best available in the market, withstanding hail up to 2 inches in diameter. When installed correctly, a metal roof can last up to 75-years. Steel reflects light and cools down much faster than asphalt, reducing the energy cost by 25% or more during the summer time. For example, a metal roof cools down to the outside temperature in 20-minutes compared to 4-hours for asphalt shingle. Insurance premiums are also lower, up to 25%, as metal roofs significantly reduce exposure to hazards such as wind and hail. Last but not least, approximately 60% of the cost of a new metal roof is added to the overall property value, and improves curb appeal. With lower energy costs and insurance premiums, a metal roof can pay off itself in 12-years.-
