What’s the first thought that comes into your mind when you think of metal roofs? Of course, those roofs on the barns and sheds in the countryside are the first images that we all come up with. Those roofs were seen as examples of why metal roofs were never used for residential use. Instead, people chose shingle roofs that were great in every way themselves.

However, shingle roofs or even wooden roofs weren’t the perfect or long-lasting choice. They had certain limitations such as their limited lifetime, or their vulnerability to hurricanes.

Metal roofing in Miami was great too but it had its pitfalls, such as:

  • They were Noisy:

Almost every metal sheet makes noise when something hits it hard. So, metal roofs weren’t initially an ideal roofing choice. However, modern metal roofs have a protective coating as well as underlayment, which makes them more quiet than ever before.

  • They were Low-Grade:

Metal roofs of yesteryears were used for roofing just for the sake of it. They were low-grade and weren’t even thought about to be considered for an upgrade. Modern metal roofs, though, are an upgraded version that easily eliminates every limitation keeping them from extensive usage.

  • Technology Wasn’t Used:

Metal roofs used earlier were plain sheets of metal beaten to be used for covering the roof. Not much thought was put in to make them something better and more useful. Technology wasn’t used at all. Modern metal roofs have overcome that limitation too. So, the roofing solutions you get today are carefully planned, keeping in mind multiple aspects, like:

  1. Their resistance to hurricanes, since a lot occur every year in Miami
  2. The need for different sizes of panels as per individual needs
  3. The material choices to suit everyone’s budget and preference
  4. The color choices for different households
  5. Building codes and rating as defined in Miami-Dade County regulations

  • They were Costly:

Metals are any day more costly than any other material that’s used for roofs. That is something that cannot be fixed no matter how you want or do it. But, as compared to other materials, metal roofs last for the longest and can last for at least 3-5 times longer than the next best roofing solution. They also help you save money on energy bills, insurance costs, and even the resale value of your home. You won’t even need to invest money in maintaining a metal roof.

Choosing metal roofs in Miami is a very good decision since it’s a solution that comes with a range of many benefits, like:

  • 100% Environmentally Friendly:

I build modern metal roofs using the most natural elements which make them 100% environmentally friendly. So, whatever metal roofing you choose to discard can be easily recycled in full and put to some other use again.

  • Savings on Energy Bills:

Metal roofs have high insulation to heat and cold. This helps you save much on monthly energy bills throughout their lifetime. This property also helps deflect heat and cold from the outside, thereby keeping your home stay warmer in winters and cooler in summers.

  • Protection Against Hurricanes:

Hurricanes are the number one threat throughout Florida. These are an annual phenomenon, which means you need hurricane deterrent roofs to keep their threat at bay. Metal roofs fit into that bill perfectly.

  • Lifetime More than Yours!:

A metal roof when bought from and installed by a dependable company will last for at least 50 years. Depending upon what material you choose, your roof may even last for over a hundred years with minimal maintenance.
