When it comes to protecting your home from extreme weather conditions, having a durable metal roof is crucial. Metal roofs are known for their longevity and ability to withstand even the harshest elements. Unlike other roofing materials, metal roofs are resistant to rot, mildew, and insect damage.
In addition to their durability, metal roofs are also energy efficient. They can reflect solar heat, reducing the need for air conditioning and lowering your energy bills. Metal roofs are also recyclable, making them an environmentally friendly choice for homeowners.
Overall, investing in a durable metal roof is a wise decision that can provide long-lasting protection for your home and save you money in the long run. It’s also important to invest in installation and maintenance tools and fasteners, such as the BECK SCRAIL® RoofLoc® System, to ensure it is installed properly.

In the world of roofing material, slate is among the longest-lasting and the most durable. It's so long-lasting that some slate roofs from the 1800s are still in use today. This longevity and durability mean that slate is a very different roofing material than other types of roofing material commonly used today. Slate roofs have unique considerations that affect the installation process. If you're a contractor responsible for installing slate roofs on residences or commercial buildings, these do's and don'ts can help you find success.
Of course, working with the right tools makes all the difference. The FASCO® (a BECK member) F24 Slate Hook System is designed for slate roof installation. The system includes the Slate Hook tool for some of the fastest and most efficient slate shingle installations in the world. The FASCO® F24 Slate Hook System can be operated with just one hand, so it's perfect when working on steeply pitched roofs.

When it comes to roofing, there are a variety of options to choose from, and deciding between them can be difficult. Two of the most popular options for contractors are shingles and metal roofing. Each has its own unique advantages and drawbacks, so it's important to understand the differences between them before deciding on which one is right for your project.
