A quality installation by your local trained roofing professional. Just like labor makes up a significant part of any roofing project’s cost, it also makes all the difference in performance.
Before we dive in, it’s essential to understand the level of training it takes to install one of our products. We offer training through our detailed manuals, informative videos, or in-person training at one of our facilities. We ensure that every contractor we partner with is prepared to deliver an excellent roofing experience from start to finish, which involves a high-quality installation.
1. Quality Installation leads to longer roof life
Proper installation leads to a longer life for your roof. Our products all carry our Limited Lifetime Warranty, which protects the products and their finish for up to 40 years. However, your contractor’s warranty protects the installation. The better their work, the better you can expect it to perform for decades.
2. When the roof is properly installed energy efficiency is enhanced
A high-quality installation enhances your home’s energy efficiency. All our metal roofing is coated with a reflective finish that bounces heat off the roof deck underneath. This puts less strain on your home’s heating and cooling systems and can save you up to 20% on energy bills! Adding insulation and ventilation during the install process helps keep your home cool in the summer and warmer in the winter.
3. Attention to detail ensures waterproofing
A proper installation includes attention to detail on the waterproofing and trim that protects your attic from rain and wind. Our roofing uses a concealed-fastener system that hides the screws or nails from the elements, but trims, flashing, and sealant complete the roofing system.
4. Expertly installed metal roofing protects your home
A properly installed roof protects your home, family, and belongings from severe weather. We recently witnessed the devastation from the major storms that hit our country, and our hearts go out to all those affected. An expertly installed roof is your home’s first line of defense against storms, hail, and high winds.
As much as manufacturing excellent metal roofing matters to us, we encourage you to partner with a contractor who values installation just as highly. We can help connect you to our network of factory-trained metal roofing contractors or work with your contractor of choice. A top-notch installation makes all the difference in any roofing project, and we’d be happy to help make your project a reality.
