Metal Roofs Provide Many Advantages, Including:
• Longevity - the average lifespan of a metal roof is 50 years or more, greater than double that of traditional shingles. Although the upfront costs are higher, the extended lifespan of metal will more than pay for itself.
• Durability - metal rooftops can withstand wind gusts up to 140 mph, double that of their shingled counterparts. Metal is also superior in areas with heavy snowfall, as snow slides off metal roofing much easier than traditional shingles.
• A Huge Variety of Styles - gone are the days when metal roofing was limited to shiny silver fit for a barn; today's metal roofing is available in a huge range of styles and colors that mimic the appearance of shingles, slate, clay, or tile roofing. The striking appearance of a new metal roof will add value and curb appeal to a home.
• Fire Retardant Properties - metal, being a fire retardant material, can provide homeowners a significant safety advantage, particularly in areas where wildfires are common. Many insurance companies even offer discounts for homes with a metal roof.
• Energy Savings - with its superior insulating properties, a metal roof will reduce the overall energy usage within the home for its entire lifetime, resulting in financial savings to homeowners.
Santa Cares about the Planet
Additionally, Santa, with his philanthropic nature, also cares deeply about the state of the planet itself, understanding that there won't be any little boys and girls to delight if the world is transformed into a trash heap. Therefore, Santa loves the "green" nature of metal, including the use of recycled materials for a portion of its initial manufacture, its durability which reduces the overall amount of material in circulation, and its complete recyclability at the end of its lifespan.
