Pro Exteriors are trained and certified in creating the perfect stone-coated metal roof for you. Combined with the look of tile, shake or shingle, Stone-coated steel roofing gives you a strong, durable roof that looks fantastic. Whatever is the style of your home or property, you will likely be able to find a roofing product that matches your needs.
The 50 year warranty is standard for stone coated steel roofs, and is transferable to future homeowners. The average warranty for asphalt roofing products is 20 years.
The roof material is far more resistant to large hail, high winds, heavy rain, fires and ice damage. Many roofing products damage or burn fairly easy in the event of extreme weather or disaster.
The roof panels are shaped with an energy-saving cushion of are called “Above Sheathing Ventilation”. This shape and technology provides better insulation than products which lay flat on the roof. In the summer, less heat will absorb into the attic. In the winter, less heat will escape from that attic. These characteristics have a direct impact on lowering your energy bill.
The metal material is made of 50% recycled steel, and is 100% recyclable after it’s 50-year lifespan. The stone coating is made from oil-free natural stone granules, which are coated and colored with a ceramic layer. In contrast, asphalt shingles are made from petroleum and fiberglass, and have a larger carbon footprint and shorter lifespan than stone coated steel roofs.
Perhaps the most amazing thing, besides the beauty of the products is its longevity. An asphalt or composite roof will need to be replaced every 10 to 20 years, while stone-coated steel is virtually good for a lifetime. It may be more expensive than traditional roofing options, but it generally last forever with minimal maintenance.
