Benefits of Metal Roofing for Dayton Homeowners
There are multiple benefits to metal roofing:
Stands up to Ohio’s climate and temperature
Metal roofing is known for its amazing durability. It stands up to Ohio’s hot summers and snowy winters. It endures sudden changes of temperature, as well as extreme temperatures. It withstands winds up to 140 mph, giving homeowners peace of mind. Get maximum snow and rain runoff with a reliable metal roof—perfect for Ohio homes.
Resists pests
You can avoid pest infestation with a reliable metal roof. Metal roofing offers nothing appetizing to damaging pests—they can’t eat it, and don’t desire to build nests on it.
Energy efficient
Metal roofing will help you lower your energy usage, decreasing your air conditioning costs by up to 25%.
Resists fire
While some home exterior materials can contribute to a fire, metal roofing is non-combustible and won’t fuel a fire, giving you peace of mind your family and belongings are well covered.
Repels mold and mildew
Unlike wooden roofing which can tend to retain moisture and cause unhealthy mold and mildew, metal roofing repels mold and mildew.
Rust proof
When rain falls on a metal roof, it won’t cause your roofing to rust.
Reliable endurance
Metal roofing is known to be long-lasting, so you don’t have to spend time and money replacing your roof again for 50-70 years.
Boosts curb appeal
Get a fabulous contemporary look to your home with gorgeous metal roofing, and enjoy coming home again!
Not noisy
Your attic and insulation dampen the sound from rain and storms with metal roofing, just like they do for asphalt roof replacement. Metal roofing is installed over a solid substrate and isn’t any noisier than asphalt roofing when installed properly.
Customizable
Metal shingles mimic the look of asphalt shingles, slate, wood shakes, and even tile. Multi-hued finishes give you options that will bring out the best in your home exterior’s appearance.
Low maintenance
When you choose metal roofing, you get the modern appearance and low maintenance you desire. Metal roofing doesn’t warp, rot, or damage easily. It stands up to the elements with ease so you can spend your time doing what you love most.
Sustainable
Metal roofing is environmentally friendly due to its makeup and long-lasting endurance. Asphalt roofing ends up in a landfill and needs to be replaced every 15-30 years. Metal roofing is recyclable and lasts 50-70 years, making it a desirable “green” option.
Versatile
Metal roofing works well on steep roofs as well as low pitched roofs.
Reliable warranty
Metal roofing typically comes with a 30-year warranty, so you can rest at ease that your investment is well covered.

In order to prevent moisture damage to your home, it’s important to recognize the signs it’s time for a roof replacement. Here are some things to look for:
