Metal Roofing by Raymond Hardin Roofing

Why metal roofing?

Metal roofing has been a long-time favorite for commercial buildings, and its many benefits are making it increasingly popular with East Texas homeowners too: it is durable and long-lasting, available in a wide variety of color choices, energy efficient, fire resistant, and low maintenance.

The many color choices alone make metal roofing an aesthetic value. Choose colors to blend into a naturalistic East Texas pine landscape or create contrast with accent colors. Metal roofing adds to your property's value and stand-out curb appeal.

Metal is energy efficient; it reflects the sun's rays to reduce heat in your attic and may even be eligible for energy-saving tax credits. Because metal roofing is lighter weight than other roofing materials, it can sometimes be installed over an existing roof with proper ventilation pockets to prevent moisture and rot.

Installing a metal roof requires a higher initial investment. However, the cost is recovered both in the multi-decade lifespan of the roof and in the increased property value. Metal roofing should be installed only by a qualified, experienced roofer like Raymond Hardin Roofing.

Questions

Some local building codes allow metal roofing to be installed over existing shingles if the decking is solid. However, the roofer must use vented metal or build a ventilation pocket between the layers to avoid moisture from collecting and causing mold and rot. We will inspect your roof and advise whether a tear-off or overlay is best.
