JR METAL ROOFING SUPPLY

Our metal roofing products introduces a huge number of benefits versus the alternatives such as asphalt shingles or heavy tiles. Metal roofing by far, has one of the highest lifespans, lower maintenance costs, and is more energy-efficient. It’s easy to see, making the choice to use metal is far superior than using other roofing materials.

#1 THE BEST MATERIAL FOR THE LEAST AMOUNT OF REPLACEMENT

Longer Lifespan

Using metal roofing material will provide longer lasting results versus any other roofing material commonly used across the country. In any weather situation across the United States, you’ll want a roof that will last a lifetime.

Asphalt shingles, for example, will only last roughly 15 years if the weather isn’t too rough on them. Often shingles in the northern climates will only last for roughly twelve years.

If you’re like the rest of America, and don’t want to continuously replace your roof every decade and a half or so, it’s like the best decision to invest in a solid metal roofing product like those listed above. These long lasting durable metal roofing systems will get you through an entire lifetime after installation on your home or office building without the worry about replacement. This material on your commercial building or home, creates added value and less hassle for you in the long run. Given the following explanation of commercial metal roofing and residential metal roofing lifetime costs, you’ll notice the value vs the cost of a shingle roof.

Total cost of roofing systems over 60 years of age

An estimate of an average commercial building metal roofing material = Approx. $18,570.00 lifetime cost

An estimate of an average commercial building shingle roofing material = Approx. $261,119.00 lifetime cost

What is the timeline for metal roofing systems?

Typically speaking, most metal roofs last any where from forty five to seventy five years. The actual length of time can fluctuate depending on how well the metal roof has been maintained over its entire lifespan. Those that like to keep their roofing well-maintained, will notice that their metal roof lasts much longer than one that is not properly maintained. The idea of purchasing metal roofing products is that it has a low maintenance requirement which makes it easy to keep up with.

#2 LESS TROUBLE WITH WIND DAMAGE

The best in wind resistance

Metal roofs will offer superior resistance during all of nature’s seasons. One of the biggest and most damaging forces of nature is wind. Don’t be like your neighbors, picking up hundreds of shingle fragments after a hurricane, severe storm, or even near by tornados. JR Metal Roofing products will be looking virtually unscathed after the storm. The only portion of a metal roofing system that wind can grab ahold of is the bottom edge of the metal roofing where the lowest part of the roof meets the gutters. These roofing systems are fastened down so tight that wind won’t stand a chance.

#5 SAVE A TON ON YOUR HEATING AND COOLING EXPENSES

Drastically improved energy efficiency for your home or office building.

Keeping the climate temperate costs money, and there’s no way the southern states will go through a year without the ability to cool down the home or building. If your AC is working double-time, costing you a mere fortune in energy bills, that could likely be a problem with your roofing system. Those thick asphalt shingles will absorb a lot of heat from radiating from the sun, heating up your attic space, and conduct heat into your home or office where it’s not wanted in the summertime. Unfortunately, this adds higher temperatures to the living and working areas that your air conditioning unit has to overcome every single day.

There are primarily two factors that surround metal roofing products, its ability to reflect light and its ability to dissipate heat that is radiated to its surface. The air gap between the perforations on a lot of our products allow air flow to rise from the bottom to the top caps drawing the heat out through natural convection. This natural convection affect is also dependent on the color of the roofing material purchased and installed. Metal roofing material is so efficient in milder climates that they may altogether remove the need for using an air conditioner. We don’t believe our customers will be removing their AC units any time soon, but the savings are definately realized.

This being said, you’ll sleep a whole lot easier knowing that your roof is a vital aspect to your family’s safety and well being.

Is Maintaining a metal roof easy?

Metal is by far one of the lowest maintenance roofing materials on the market, but you should put in a little care to keep it in tip top condition. You will want to be sure the following action items are handled at least once a year, to maximize the life of your roof:

• Scrub and remove any mildew, dirt, and stains from the metal surface
• Remove and discard any leaves, branches and random debris
• Clean out any and all gutters and downspout drains
• Remove any leaves and various debris caught in roof valleys
• Spot check fasteners (approx one out of every 20), rivets, and screws. If you notice one, check for more in that area in need of repair.

DO METAL ROOFS ATTRACT LIGHTNING?

Metal roofs are not any more susceptible to attracting lightning than any other roofing structure. However, that being said, if a lightning strike does happen to hit your home or building, you’re much safer under a metal roof than being under any other type of roofing material.

Metal roofs are great conductors of electricity, and when coupled with other fire-resistant insulation materials, will minimize the impact of a lightning strike by leading it to diffuse in the ground. Since all of our metal roofing products are noncombustible, they won’t spontaneously catch fire in the event of a lightning strike.
