Snow shedding
Snow slides off metal in big sheets. We add snow guards anywhere that could land on a person, a car, or a lower roof.
A metal roof costs more up front than asphalt and can last two to three times as long. Snow slides off instead of sitting on the roof, which means less weight and fewer ice dams. On the North Shore it is a smart choice for the whole house, and a great fix for porch roofs, dormers, and low-pitch sections that keep leaking under shingles.
We will tell you honestly whether metal pays off for your home, or whether a quality shingle roof is the better value.

Up front, yes, noticeably more than architectural shingles. Over the life of the roof it can cost less, because you may never replace it again.
No. It does not make a strike more likely, and metal is noncombustible if one does happen.
Yes. Low-pitch porch roofs are one of the best places for metal, and it looks sharp next to shingles on the main roof.
