Roofing > Metal Roof Colors<
Need a new roof for your home? Don't make a final decision until you consider the many colors of metal roofing.
Why Metal Roofing is Superior to Asphalt
Asphalt simply can't stand up to the rigors of weather, time and energy-efficiency when compared to metal roofing. In fact, some asphalt roofing fails before the warranty runs out. In comparison, metal roofing is extremely durable over time, highly energy-efficient, and very friendly to the environment. Your heating and cooling bills are reduced dramatically, and our nation's landfills are protected from several additional tons of roofing debris, since metal roofing can be installed directly over old asphalt.
But What About Metal Roof Colors?
Amid all of these excellent benefits, you may be wondering about aesthetics. Are metal roofing colors plentiful? Will available metal roof colors blend well with your home's style?
The answer is a resounding YES. Today's most advanced roofing product is available in a wide spectrum of metal roofing colors to suit the needs, desires and tastes of every homeowner and every home style, from cottages to castles. Metal roofing colors include varying shades of blue, red, green, grey, neutrals, black and brown. Custom metal roof colors are also available. From Denver to Boston and New York to Seattle, homeowners who choose metal roofing are making a distinctive design statement that goes beyond choosing the right front door or paint colors. Because metal roof colors are so unique and offer so many color options beyond traditional asphalt roofing, you can truly let your imagination dictate your overall exterior design palette.
Is Metal Roofing Truly a Good Value?
Before you begin comparing today's metal roofing to yesterday's old tin roofs, consider this: Metal roofing materials and colors are warrantied to last up to 50 years, but can actually last many more years. Initial installation can be a bit pricier, because of the very meticulous installation process that requires specialized training and takes about three to four times longer than traditional roof installation. However, you are paying for ultra-performance materials that, in the long run, are proven to save money in energy costs, repairs, replacement, and long-term durability that cannot be beat. Metal roofing is wind and impact-resistant, fireproof, environmentally friendly (100% recyclable), and, when you choose a lighter metal roof color, highly effective in radiating the sun's energy, lowering your overall cooling costs.
A clear fluoropolymer resin used in painted metal roof products stops ultraviolet (UV) degradation and fading of colored paints, retaining as much as 85 percent of the original color even 20 years after being painted.
When you are ready to begin the process of choosing your new metal roof, take the time to explore all of your options for metal roofing colors. You may be surprised to discover you agree with a growing number of Americans that metal roofing is the clearly superior choice.
