Have you ever considered installing a metal roof? Many homeowners haven’t, since they might consider it something that is only used in businesses, however, in more recent years, it has been used a lot more in residential applications. This is because it has undergone many improvements. There are many more options of colors and styles than there used to be. A metal roof is not going to be as noisy as you might think it would be either. With solid sheathing installed, it would be just as quiet as any other roofing material.

Hailstorms are a concern, since there is a possibility that they could damage your metal roof, so you might want to make sure that you buy the roofing material with a warranty against such damage.

If you do have a metal roof, you should make sure to trim back branches that grow over it, since the weight of a branch falling on the roof could cause a serious dent in it. You should also keep it clean of debris that could collect water and lead to rust.
