Pros
As metal roofing contractors, our favorite things about metal roofs are:
- Energy efficiency
- Durability
- Weight
Durability
It is hard to beat the durability of a quality metal roof. Metal roofs last about three times as long as asphalt shingles. Metal will not crack or tear. Metal roofs can stand up to more brutal weather.
Weight
Metal roofs protect without the weight. They are lighter than tile, shingles, clays, and concretes.
Energy Efficiency
Some roofing materials like asphalt absorb tons of sunshine. That can send your summer temperatures soaring. Metal roofs reflect sunlight and heat.
Cons
There are some downsides to metal roofs. These include
- Noise
- Surface Damage
- Cost
Noise
The sound of rain on a tin roof has a romantic appeal. For some people, the reality is more distracting. That means that whether the noise is a pro or a con is subjective.
Not sure how you feel about it? We suggest spending time in a building with a metal roof before buying one.
Surface Damage
Metal roofing services can be demanding for budget-friendly products. They can be prone to dents and rust. Rusting may require coating roofs to protect them. Minor dents are unlikely to impact the roof’s integrity but might not look great.
Cost
The initial cost might scare you away from metal roof installation. Metal roofs do cost more upfront. However, their longer lifespan means fewer replacements.

My project was small- I just needed a single long piece of siding fixed. Justin was incredibly responsive and kind though as if I had a larger project, and the tech who came to fix my siding was nice and efficient and on time. When I inevitably need a much larger project done in the future, I will definitely be hiring CCG again!
