Description

A metal roof will be the last roof you ever buy. Not only will it add to your home’s beauty, you'll see an increase in i's resale value. Because of the proven protection that metal roofing provides, many insurers will lower their home insurance premiums.

What's wrong with other types of roofing?

The average life of a non-steel roof is approximately 17 years. For example, asphalt, or “composition” shingles can require re-roofing every 10 to 20 years or sooner!

Options

Schmidt's can help you find the steel roof that will match the appearance of your home. Whether you want the look of an asphalt shingle, clay tile, cedar shake or slate, ArrowLine® and Gerard® roofing products are made to last a lifetime.

Efficiency

The metal used in the manufacturing of ArrowLine® Shingle-Shakes will reflect the majority of the rays from the sun and, therefore, minimizes any heat build-up in your attic. This means that you could actually have a cooler attic when combined with proper ventilation.

There’s more to the beautiful colors and designs of a Gerard® Stone Coated Steel Roof than meets the eye. For example, the lighter-colored roofs are designed to effectively reflect the sun’s heat and reduce the need to cool your home during the hot summer months. The “dead air” buffer zone between your new Gerard® roof and old roof also insulates against heat loss in winter months. What a beautiful way to lower your energy bills.
