With inflation higher than it’s been for 40 years and an incredibly tight real estate market, many folks looking for a new home find themselves caught in the proverbial catch-22. Currently, it’s difficult to buy an existing home, and building a new one can also be cost prohibitive.
Our steel SPRINGHOUSE SHINGLES are environmentally friendly
Since global warming conversations started dominating the media a few years ago, we’ve seen homeowners take note. Many folks now put a greater emphasis on selecting products with a lower environmental impact.
Choosing metal roofing over asphalt shingles is a great example. With a 60-year life expectancy, metal roofing offers one of the longest life expectancies for roofing materials, and it’s 100% recyclable at the end of service life.
So it’s truly a double win! While there’s certainly an appeal to putting a roof on once in their lifetime, environmentally conscious homeowners also appreciate that skipping asphalt shingles helps reduce the 11 million tons of shingles annually that wind up in our landfills, where they take 300 years to decompose.
Colors
While we leave the interior color trends to the interior design folks, we’re happy to share what we see regarding exterior color trends. Currently, black is the most popular color for residential metal roofing projects.
However, it’s essential to realize that different qualities of paint are used on metal panels, and the performance you can expect to vary significantly.
Allowing someone to convince you otherwise could easily mean that your beautiful black metal roof will look dull and morph from black to gray in just a few short years. To ensure your metal roof keeps its like-new appearance for decades, require a Kynar 500 paint system for the metal panels. Springhouses are available in seven designer colors for a durable, fade resistant finish that will stand the test of time.
