Metal Roof Installation and Repair in Chicago, IL

Advantages of a Metal Roof

One reason Pulaski Roofing & Engineering recommends metal roof installation in Chicago, IL is because of its obvious benefits to its users. Metal roofs are durable and with proper maintenance, you can rely on your metal roof for up to 50 years. These roofs are also versatile. You can fit them into any roof no matter the shape or size. There is a variety to choose from when it comes to metal roofs. Anything from design to color, there is always something for everyone. You can choose to go with tile or shingle-shaped roofs or a snap-lock standing seam metal roof, depending on your preferences. Lastly, there are plenty of metals to choose from for your roof. You can either go with aluminum, copper, or galvanized steel. One of the metal roofs we specialize in is the standing seam metal roof.

• Standing seam metal roof: Although you can choose to go with a metal roof shaped in the image of tile or asphalt shingle, most property owners opt to go with a standing seam metal roof. Standing seam metal roofs come with a lot of advantages to their users. It is popular because it comes in many lengths, thicknesses, and widths. It is also reliable for residential properties as the snap-lock helps protect them from extreme weather conditions. 

Which is the best metal roofing option?

Most metal roofs can work the magic on your property. All you have to consider is your property, whether commercial or residential and with that in mind, decide which metal roofing will fit the functions. You can choose to go with anything from galvanized steel, aluminum, copper, or zinc, depending on your preference and property needs.

Is it right to put metal roofs over asphalt shingle roofing?

As long as it is not against your area’s local building policies, you can install metal roofs over an already existing asphalt roof. You do not have to remove the shingle roofing to install. However, it could lead to moisture building up between the roofing material leading to mold or rot. To remedy this, consider installing vented metal roofing.

Will having a metal roof reduce my insurance?

Insurance companies factor in the type of roofing material and quality when trying to come up with the rebuilding amount. Roofing materials such as metal, slate, tiles, and asphalt shingle offer reliable protection to your property but still cost substantial amounts to replace. Some insurance companies offer discounts on metal roofs because they are so durable.
