Why homeowners in PA choose metal roofing

Metal roofing is a long-term roofing solution built for durability in Pennsylvania’s climate. When correctly specified and installed, metal roofs commonly last 40-70 years depending on material and finish. They resist wind, shed snow efficiently, and perform well in hail events when appropriate metals and gauges are chosen. For homeowners weighing lifetime cost against initial investment, metal often wins on total lifecycle value.

Compare types of residential metal roofing

Standing seam (hidden fastener systems)
Exposed-fastener panels (corrugated / ribbed)
  • Standing seam (hidden fastener systems) — premium aesthetic and best long-term water-shedding performance for pitched, residential roofs. Ideal for modern and historic home conversions.
  • Exposed-fastener panels (corrugated / ribbed) — a cost-effective choice for garages, barns, or contemporary home looks.

We help homeowners choose the material (steel or aluminum) and gauge based on roof slope, exposure, budget and desired appearance.

Real costs & ROI: what homeowners need to know

Metal roofing has a higher upfront cost than asphalt shingles, but the investment can be justified when homeowners weigh long-term factors. Typical installed costs range roughly from $14-$40 per square foot depending on material type (steel, aluminum, premium coatings), profile (standing seam vs corrugated), and roof complexity (pitch, dormers, skylights, and custom trims).

When comparing roofing options, it’s important to consider:

  • Lifespan
    metal often lasts two to three times longer than asphalt.
  • Maintenance
    fewer repairs and replacements over time.
  • Energy performance
    reflective finishes reduce summer cooling costs.
  • Insurance potential
    some carriers provide discounts for hail- and wind-rated systems.
  • Resale value
    buyers recognize the long warranty and low-maintenance appeal.

Yes. Reflective finishes reduce rooftop heat gain in summer and cool-roof coatings can help lower A/C costs.

Sometimes. Local codes and structural checks determine if a re-cover is permitted. Many municipalities limit layers, so permits and inspections are required.
