Metal Roofing Contractor FAQ

How long does it take to do a roof?

You will have a shorter install time with a metal roofing contractor that has a highly trained crew. The contractor will assign the appropriate team for your property. They will show up when they say, and stay until the job is complete, and not leave your home partially complete to finish other jobs.  If you are in need of a roof, and want the job completed promptly contact us for your free estimate.

Pricey—or is it?

Metal roofing must not only surmount a lack of awareness among both homeowners and roofers, but it also has to overcome an initial price differential between its products and asphalt shingles—about two and a half to three times more than asphalt. The 50-year-plus lifetime of metal roofing can create a more equitable lifecycle cost, avoiding replacement for a couple of generations, but few homeowners are considering their home's maintenance costs 50 years into the future.

However, Hippard sees the cost differential reducing in coming years for several reasons:

	Higher petroleum costs are causing asphalt shingle prices to rise.
	The energy tax-credit law that takes effect in 2006 provides a credit for heat-reflective metal roofing, which also will save homeowners in warmer climates money on their energy bills every year.
	Home appraisers are impressed by the durability of metal roofs, in some cases adding $1.45 per square foot to the value of a home with a metal roof.
	Insurers, too, are swayed, providing as much as 35-percent insurance discounts due to the fewer worries of hail penetrating the roof and causing damage. Insurance companies currently are studying how much metal roofs might help protect homes in hurricanes.
