Metal Roof vs Shingle Roof



If you are trying to decide on which roofing material you should use for your roof, you aren’t the only one. Many people debate on whether to use metal roofing material or asphalt shingles.

It’s incredibly important to make the correct decision for you as it will likely be a permanent choice for your home.

In general, asphalt shingles are going to be less expensive than metal roofing material. It’s also easier to repair.

Appearance
While not the most important part of how you decide to do your roof, appearance can still be an important variable when making the choice.

Asphalt shingles now come in a variety of styles beyond just “black asphalt”. Shop around your area and see some of the different looks that shingles have.
Metal roofing is also quite customizable in appearance and can come in a variety of colors. There’s no clear winner here, so go ahead and use your subjective taste to decide which you prefer.

Durability
Metal roofing tends to be more durable and last longer than an asphalt roof, although it can be quite expensive to repair. If individual shingles are damaged, you can just replace those individual shingles. With metal roofing, you may have to tear up the entire panel and replace it, which can cost more.

That being said, under the same weather conditions, metal roofing will last a lot longer and maintain its integrity more reliably than shingles.

Weather Resistance
Metal roofing is more durable against the elements than a typical asphalt shingle roof. Even during severe hailstorms where you might expect the roof to dent, it is actually more durable than shingles in this case.

The only downside for metal roofing over shingles in heavy weather conditions is that the noise from rain and hail on a metal roof is much louder. If you are considering doing a metal roof, you may want to look into additional ways to mitigate the noise factor.
