Los Angeles County Roofing Contractor Explains the Benefits of Metal Roofs

DOUG HUNTER, owner of Hunter’s Roofing, does residential roofing in Los Angeles. Here, he talks about the benefits of metal roofs.

 

Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/26/2012 -- Saving money on heating and cooling on everyone’s priority list, but with Hunters Roofing, the savings can be immediate. Doug Hunter, owner of the company, told us about the benefits of metal residential roofing in Los Angeles.

Metal used in residential roofing in Los Angeles is incredibly eco-friendly. A metal roof can keep your home cool during the hot summer months, and the insulation installed beneath the metal will help to keep it warm in the winter months.

Mr. Hunter says that the metal that he installs as roofing is heavy gauge and durable enough to withstand some of the most damaging weather conditions. In addition, metal won’t shrink or crack, as some other forms of roofing materials do. The surface won’t erode, either.

Eco-Friendly Metal Roofs

Metal roofs used in residential roofing in Los Angeles can keep millions of pounds of roofing debris out of Los Angeles landfills every year. Mr. Hunter says that over 20 billion pounds of debris hits landfills across the country every year. But metal roofs can be installed over an existing roof, if necessary. In addition, Metal roofs are painted with a reflective paint that reflects heat, so that your home won’t get as hot in the summer. They are also often comprised of recycled materials, with recycled materials comprising up to 60% of the construction of the new material. In addition, the metal roof itself is recyclable.

The Appearance of Metal Residential Roofing in LOS ANGELES

Mr. Hunter says that metal used in residential roofing in Los Angeles is very common, but you may not recognize it. That’s because it has many different appearances. The familiar vertical seams are still manufactured, but you can get metal roofs in just about any style you want. For instance, Mr. Hunter says you can get Spanish tile, slate, cedar shakes, or regular shingles. They also come in a wide variety of colors, so that you can match the architectural style of your home as well as your personal tastes.

Metal residential roofing is one of the more expensive options for your home. But, according to Mr. Hunter, you probably won’t have to replace it, which saves money in the long run. It can also be more cost effective when it comes to your utilities.

Doug Hunter and his crews are committed to clean, neat installations, and you’ll never hear vulgarity from any of his trained workers. Each of his workers is a highly trained and certified installer for each of the new products that Hunters Roofing installs.
