While most homeowners have the choice between metal and tile, there are some situations where metal roofing installation is the far superior option.
Case in point: commercial properties.
Commercial buildings such as factories and warehouses are best served by metal roofing.
It’s not hard to see why!
Of course, while metal roofing is low-maintenance, there are still some things expert roofers can do to improve the health and extend the longevity of your metal roof.
Simply put, a properly-maintained metal roof can serve you for decades with minimal maintenance. That’s just one of the benefits behind metal’s surge in popularity.
There are plenty of reasons to consider metal roofing for your commercial property:
For commercial properties, metal roofs are also significantly safer than the alternatives: at some commercial properties, like factories, sparks of electricity and embers pose a real threat. In these cases, metal roofing is ideal due to its fire-resistant properties.
The COLORBOND metal roofing that we use in particular is specially designed with fire protection in mind.
This can save you a lot of money on your repair bill – not to mention, it can save some of your equipment and inventory too! This reason alone makes metal roofing the material of choice for many commercial properties.
Take a stroll through any industrial area or strip of shots and you’ll see the same old, beat-up and rusty metal roofs wherever you look.
Not only is this an eyesore, but in some cases, it can cause your metal roof to decay, forcing you to shut your doors.
In many cases, this is the consequence of a lax maintenance program (read: none whatsoever).
Just like any other roofing material, metal roofing requires periodic maintenance to extend its lifetime and offer you the best protection for many years to come.
During roofing inspections, your roofer will go over every aspect of your metal roof with a fine-tooth comb. We don’t just mean the roofing sheets either – we’ll also examine:
By detecting these problems early, your roofing specialist can nip the problem in the bud and avoid expensive repairs further down the line. This preventative care will protect your bottom line from suffering huge blowouts later!
