Despite roofs being a fundamental part of our homes, and responsible for keeping them protected from the elements, the roof materials we choose can often be overlooked. There are many options out there for roofing, but consumers are often stuck when it comes to which roof to choose. Metal roofing in Lancing is becoming more and more popular, and many homeowners are opting for it over traditional asphalt shingles, and here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Metal is One Tough Cookie \u2013 Why would you choose a weaker material for your property? It\u2019s durable, strong and won\u2019t let you down, unlike asphalt, which doesn\u2019t withstand the elements as well. Metal offers a longevity that asphalt just can\u2019t compete with.<\/li>\n
  2. Warranty \u2013 Because metal is such a durable material for your roof, warranties for metal roofing are often much longer than those for asphalt shingle roofing. The use of zinc- galvanised technology means that metal roofing will have an extended lifespan, lasting as long as five decades or more (dependent upon a number of factors). With many homeowners searching for the best investment when choosing their new roof; metal roofing wins.<\/li>\n
  3. Our Name Says it all (Eco Metal) \u2014 Metal is a much more energy efficient choice against asphalt shingles. As metal reflects the sun, it keeps homes cool all summer long, meaning air conditioning can be kept at an all time low, or even off all together. Metal roofing is often produced from recycled metal too; great for the planet as well as your home.<\/li>\n
  4. Metal roofing Looks Good on Lancing Homes (and anywhere else!) \u2014 An investment in a metal roof may be the most practical option for your roof when it comes to high quality roofing materials, but it\u2019s also a stylish option for your home. In fact, customers can choose the perfect tone and shape for their homes, so it won\u2019t just keep your home incredibly well protected, but \u2013 being a better looking choice over out-dated asphalt \u2013 it\u2019ll look good too.<\/li>\n
  5. Money back \u2014 Insurance companies offer discounts on policies for homes with metal roofs, but not for those with asphalt tiling. As well as this, with metal roofing being a more popular roofing choice for prospective homes owners, metal roofing can also add value to your home, meaning that as much as 95% of the costs can be recovered when selling your home.<\/li>\n
  6. A Better Investment \u2014 It\u2019s said asphalt roofing lasts just half of the time that metal roofing does, so to stay in a home for 5 decades would mean re-doing your asphalt and paying once more for roofing. With a metal roof, there will be no need to re-roof, and at just $5.99 per sq ft, it\u2019s an affordable one-time price.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
