Appreciate Your Home with Quality Metal
Roofing

If you've been considering upgrading your home
and increasing its resale value, you should know that beautiful
and enduring metal roofing is highly valued as one of the top
renovation-friendly building materials for rehabbers and new
home builders alike.
As reported by Sal Alfano of Remodeling Magazine,
homes renovated with standing-seam metal roofing show a rate of
85.9% cost recouped in the national average with up to 95.5%
for homes in the Eastern states, a full 1 and 6% resale value
gain over homes roofed with asphalt. And with all the added
safety and longevity associated with quality metal roofing
matching installation job costs that reach only one half of
that of cosmetic room remodeling averages or even one
eighth of that of a master suite addition, you hardly deny
the sense in upgrading.
Find the Average Metal Roof Value in Your Area:
The following table shows average values associated with a
typical roof renovation of 30 squares of standing seam metal,
formed on-site into16-inch panels using factory-enameled roll
steel (all seams double-locked) with brake-bent flashing from
same material for drip edge and all flashing at roof-wall
intersections, a 5-square hip roof with custom flashing at two
average-sized skylights, a custom cap treatment, all applied
over a new felt underlayment with rubberized asphalt membranes
at eaves, valleys and all penetrations.
