When it is time for a home or a business to have a new roof put on, it is important to consider all types of roofs available and choose the one that best suits the needs of the homeowner or business owner. One popular choice in roofs is metal roofing because it is durable, fire and weather resistant, and mold-able into many designs and styles. Three types of Metal Roofing in Appleton are roofs made of aluminum, roofs made of steel, and roofs made of copper.
Roofs Made of Aluminum
One type of metal roofing is a roof made of aluminum. Aluminum is a great material for roofing because it is lightweight and affordable. It is naturally rustproof, so it has the potential to last for a long time. Aluminum is also very malleable so that it can be formed into many shapes including those of traditional roofing materials like shingles. It is a popular choice for environmentally-conscious customers as well because it is made in part from post-consumer waste.
Roofs Made of Steel
Roofs made of steel are another type of metal roofing. Steel is another great material for roofing because it is very strong and durable. It is resistant to weather, and, with the addition of zinc or a zinc and aluminum combo to the coating of the steel, it is resistant to rust as well. Steel can also be an affordable choice. Roofs made of steel should last for many years.
Roofs Made of Copper
The third type of metal roofing is a roof made of copper. Copper is a great material for roofing because it is a very beautiful metal and gets more beautiful with time, as it takes on a blue-green tinting pattern. However copper is quite expensive, so instead of using it for entire roofs, it is usually just used for accents. It is a popular choice for churches and historical buildings, as well as some homes.
