Have you noticed more metal roofs on homes lately? We have too. Our Casselberry roofers explain this new trend.

In today’s housing market, we’re all looking for ways to increase our property value. If you’re thinking about selling your home anytime soon, adding a new roof will help you sell for top dollar. On the flip side, if you’ll be in your home for the foreseeable future, and don’t want to buy another roof, you need a roofing material that will last for decades.

While you have many options in roofing materials, our Casselberry roofers are getting more requests than ever for metal roofs. Our team at Advantage Roofing looked into this trend and compiled a list of reasons that metal roofing may be right for you too.

Metal Roofs Are Durable

The main reason that more homeowners are choosing metal over asphalt is that metal roofing is so much more durable. Did you know that a metal roof can last 40 years or more? Imagine not having to replace your roof ever again. Okay, maybe you’ll have to replace it before you pass your home down to your children, but it should be worry-free for many years.

Metal Roof Myth – Metal roofs attract lightning. FALSE. 

Metal roofs are no more likely than other types of roofs to be struck by lightning. This should ease your mind living in the “lightning capital of the U.S.” In fact, if a metal roof is struck by lightning, the energy is dispersed throughout the home instead of concentrating in one spot. So you could say that metal roofs keep you safer in the event of a lightning strike.

Metal Roofs Have a Higher ROI

Anytime you put money into your home, you want to have a good return on your investment. For example, if you have a swimming pool installed for $40,000, would you be able to sell your home for $40,000 more than you would before you had a pool in the backyard? Some home improvements have a higher ROI than others. And for the record, experts disagree on whether or not a pool adds value to your home.

We can all agree that a new roof adds value to your home, however. But does a metal roof add more value than an asphalt roof? It’s a more expensive investment so you want to be sure you’ll get that money back in your property value. A new metal roof will give you up to an 85% return on your investment. Compare that to a 60% ROI on a standard asphalt roof, and you can see why making this type of investment in your home can be worth it.

Metal Roofs Come In A Variety Of Styles And ColorsCasselberry roofers
