Can I walk on the metal roof after it is installed?

Yes, but like with any roof, care should always be taken.

Is a metal roof noisy when it rains?

A study conducted by the Acoustic Group found that the sound from a metal roof was only six decibels greater than that of a conventional asphalt roof. With ArrowLine’s four way locking and fastening system and the proper underlayment your ArrowLine roof will not contribute to additional noise.

How does the cost of a metal roof compare to other roofs?

Although a metal roofing system may cost more initially the metal roof should never need to be replaced and therefore should be less expensive over the life of your home. Common asphalt shingles have a shorter life span and will need to be replaced periodically and can be more expensive over the life of your roof.

Can a metal roof be damaged by hail?

Metal panel roofing is designed to withstand the impact of most hailstorms. Edco double embossed panels will help minimize damage that might be caused by hail. Edco roofing is covered by a hail protection warranty and approved by many insurance companies for reduced homeowners’ insurance rates. Standing seam can be dented and may show damage but it does not affect how long the roof will last.

Can metal roofing reduce my energy bills?

The TRINAR® finish used in the manufacturing of ArrowLine roofing, reflects the majority of the sun’s rays and therefore minimizes any heat build-up in your attic. The solid colors are ENERGY STAR® approved which means that you could actually have a cooler attic when combined with proper ventilation.

How long should I expect my metal roof to last?

Metal roofing should be the last roof system that you ever buy. Metal roofing was designed
to withstand the extreme cold of the northern regions and the blistering heat of the southern states. Edco metal panels carry a Lifetime Non-Prorated Limited Warranty.

Can I install metal roofing over my existing roof?

Yes, in most cases. Check with your local building inspectors to see if there are any restrictions
in your area.

Do I need to run a ground wire to the shingles?

Grounding of metal roofing and siding is not required by most major building code organizations. Some local building codes might require it, so check with the local inspectors before starting the job.
