Frequently asked questions about long run roofing
What are the advantages of long run roofing?
• Reduced Weight and Durability: The reduced weight of steel roofing puts less burden on the home's structure, making it ideal for various property types, including those in earthquake-prone areas. Steel roofing is also known for its durability and can withstand harsh weather conditions.
• Low Maintenance and Longevity: Long run steel roofs require very little maintenance over their lifetime. They are also known for their longevity, making them a cost-effective option in the long run.
• Energy Efficiency and Environmental Friendliness: Metal roofing is energy efficient, reflecting some of the sun's radiant heat away from the home, keeping it cooler in the summer. It also retains heat in the winter, reducing energy consumption for heating. Additionally, metal roofing is fully recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
• Fire Resistance: Steel is not combustible, making it a fire-resistant roofing option.
• Affordability: Long run steel roofing is generally more affordable than other types of roofing, attributed to its low manufacturing cost, ease of use, rapid installation times, and low ongoing maintenance costs
