Metal roofs require little to no maintenance compared to other roofing systems (usually an occasional cleaning with water is all that is required). In addition, metal roofs are the only roofs that are not susceptible to rodent or termite infestation.
It’s important to remember that your roof can be a dangerous place for making repairs, especially when you have a multistory home. If your roof is in need of repairs or replacement, it’s usually best to call in a professional.
Perhaps the most appealing thing about a slate roof is the low maintenance quality. Because a professional has to install the roof due to the nature of the materials, it is unlikely it will need service once its installed.
Strong winds can really do a number on a roof. It may not be storming outside, but heavy gusts can still rack up some heavy damage. If you notice anything out of the ordinary after storms or strong winds, ask a professional to check your roof.
Metal roofing offers greater versatility and more color choice than asphalt shingles. Modern metal roofing materials are produced in more than 100 shades, roughly four times the number offered by asphalt shingle manufacturers.
