In the market for a new roof? Don’t immediately run to traditional shingles or metal. With stone-coated metal roofs, you can get the best of both worlds in style and durability. 

Keep reading to see why a stone-coated metal roof may be right for you.

 

  • You want to reduce energy costs.
    Stone-coated metal roofs allow for your home to maintain a consistent temperature, through the use of above-sheathing ventilation (ASV). ASV works by allowing heat to flow to maintain a cooler temperature during hotter months, all while preventing heat from escaping during colder months. This technology makes stone-coated metal roofing a worthwhile investment no matter the climate, as you will be reaping the reward either way.
  • You live in an area with inclement weather like greater Nashville, TN.
    Across the country, there are plenty of places that have weather conditions that aren’t ideal for traditional roofing, and one solution to this problem is by opting for a stone-coated metal roof. Stone-coated metal has best in its class ratings for fire and hail, two of the greatest risks to roofing in their respective climates. Not only that, they meet the wind testing requirements set by Florida for high velocity hurricane zones. Indeed, our metal roofing has Class 4 and Very Severe Hail Impact ratings.
  • You want a durable roofing solution.
    Not only can stone-coated metal roofing resist all of the inclement weather mentioned above, but also comes with a fifty year limited warranty. This warranty gives you the peace of mind you need when purchasing a new roof, and will ensure that it should be a long lasting choice. 
  • You want to maintain a traditional shingled aesthetic
    You may have already heard about the benefits to a traditional metal roof, namely the lower energy costs, but were unsure due to the lack of style with metal roofing, stone-coated metal roofs are for you. Not only do you get additional energy-efficiency benefits due to the ASV installation process, there are plenty of shingle choices to choose from. From split-shake to barrel tile, there are options for every architectural style, and a range of colors to choose from as well.
  • You view your roof as an investment
    As for the cost, stone-coated metal does cost more upfront in comparison to traditional shingled roofs, but is on par with traditional metal. However, considering all of the benefits that come with stone-coated metal, and how much longer it lasts in comparison to traditional shingle roofing, the upfront costs are worth it in the end when everyone around you is fully replacing their roofs, all while you still have years to go!
