We all know when you own a home you need to stay on top of things and fix them before the problem either gets worse or something else breaks. It’s just part of home ownership. Some problems are small but unfortunately, some are bigger and more costly. One of the biggest areas that seems to keep homeowners on their toes is residential roofing. Asphalt is a very popular option for many homeowners but they are not durable. The biggest problem with them is that they do not hold up in stormy conditions and on average only last 10-15 years. It’s never good news to find out you have a problem roof that needs to be replaced.

If you are looking for a more durable and energy efficient solution for your home then you need to consider a metal roof. Erie Construction of Evansville, Indiana is a trusted leader in the industry because we offer the highest quality product at a fair and honest price.

So why is a metal roof becoming so popular? For starters, it is the strongest product available which is why it’s the new go to material for not only commercial properties but residential as well. They  can last 50 or even 100 years if properly installed and proper maintenance is carried out. According to National Association of Home Builders other types of roofs such as asphalt can last anywhere from 10-15 years, under the same conditions. So when do you want to replace your roof after 10-15 years, or after 50 plus? I know my answer. Plus, a metal roof is great for the environment  and extremely energy efficient.
