Still have questions about metal roofing? Not a problem! Muth & Company, your expert Columbus roofer, has the answers to the common inquiries we get about metal roofing.
“Does the paint on metal roofs flake or chip?”
Metal roofing systems will last at least 50 years. And their paint finishes will keep going strong for the same length of time. The brands installed by Muth & Company carry comprehensive warranties against flaking, chipping, and fading. So there is no need to worry about having an ugly roof a few years down the road.
“How many colors does it come in?”
One of the great things about metal roofing in Dublin, OH is the wide variety of colors in which it is available. There are dozens of shades to choose from. So finding one that will complement the exterior of your home will be no problem at all.
“Does metal roofing rust?”
If you’ve ever seen a rusty old shed or other structure covered with sheet metal, it would be logical to assume that metal roofing will rust as well. But today’s systems are different. Modern metal roofing has a metallic coating made of zinc or a zinc/aluminum compound. This is bonded to the steel during the manufacturing process, which prevents rust from forming on the panel.
“How much more is metal than shingles?”
On average, metal runs about double the cost of asphalt shingles, depending on which type of metal you use. If you think metal seems overpriced and overrated, you must take into account the longevity of this type of roof. An asphalt shingle roof lasts from 20-30 years, so it will have to be replaced at least once – and possibly twice – before metal wears out. Plus, it can last more than 50 years and has the additional benefit of being energy-efficient, which cuts down on yearly energy costs.
