Metal roofing is becoming increasingly popular with Quebec homeowners. Thanks to its durability, modern aesthetics and energy performance, it represents an excellent alternative to traditional asphalt shingle roofing. Find out why choosing a metal roof can be a wise investment for your home.
Exceptional durability
One of the main advantages of a metal roof is its longevity. Unlike asphalt shingles, which have to be replaced every 15 to 20 years, a metal roof can last between 40 and 70 years, or even longer, depending on maintenance. Metal is extremely resistant to weather, high winds, snow and hail, making it an ideal choice for Quebec’s harsh climatic conditions.
An energy-efficient solution
Metal roofs are renowned for their reflective properties, which help improve a home’s energy efficiency. In summer, they reflect the sun’s rays, reducing heat absorption and helping to maintain a cooler indoor temperature. This reduces air-conditioning consumption and cuts energy costs. What’s more, metal is often made from recycled materials and is itself recyclable at the end of its life, making it an environmentally-friendly choice.
Easy maintenance
Compared to other types of roofing, metal roofing requires very little maintenance. It won’t crack, warp or rot. Just an occasional cleaning is all it takes to maintain its appearance and performance. What’s more, snow slides easily over a metal roof, reducing the risk of excessive accumulation and overloading of the roof structure.
Versatile aesthetics
Contrary to popular belief, metal roofing is not limited to industrial buildings. Today, they’re available in a wide variety of colors, textures and styles, sometimes imitating slate or wood shingles. Whether you’re looking for a modern or more traditional look, there’s an option that will blend perfectly with your home’s architecture.
