Western Pennsylvania’s Experts in Metal Roof Installation & Restoration

Liberty Roofing Pros install or repair metal roofs, too! Looking for a new, contemporary look for your property? We can also switch your asphalt shingle roof to a beautiful and highly durable metal roof, no problem. Metal materials for roofs are extremely durable and it is becoming more and more popular. No longer is this type of roofing thought to be appropriate only for sheds, barns, and utility structures. Property owners aiming to achieve a sleek, modern look for homes, often go with metal!

Metal Corrugated Panels versus Metal Standing Seam

Corrugated panels or sheets of wavy metal are synonymous with traditional types of roofing, but newer standing seam roofing is the preference of many residential and commercial property owners, architects, builders and designers. A crucial difference between corrugated roofing and standing seam roofing is the fastening system of a standing seam profile. Standing seam panels are designed to conceal the fastener below the surface of the panel, either using a clip or nail flange system.

The strength of this high tensile steel means durability under extreme weather conditions like the wind, hail, snow and rain we consistently get here in places like Mercer, Hadley, Hermitage, Fredonia, and other communities throughout our corner of the state.

Common Roof Problems Explained

Galvalume Coating

A galvalume coating is a zinc-aluminum coating that not only increases the longevity of this product but also decreases needed maintenance as well. This coating is applied to both bare and painted roofing materials offering these specific benefits:

Maximum corrosion protection
Low maintenance
Durability
Edge protection
Limited Lifetime Warranty

Acrylic Coating

Non-painted or bare metal will have an additional coating that is applied over the galvalume coating. This coating can:

Extend the life of the roof
Easy-to-install
Non-uniform darkening when stored

Main Types of Metal Roofing Materials

Steel – This is the most common type of metal roofing available in different finishes.
Aluminum Roofing- Lightweight, resistant to corrosion, and resilient for homes and buildings in or near coastal areas
Copper Roofing– While you may pay extra for copper materials, this type of roofing is very long-lasting and can take on a beautiful patina
Zinc Roofing– Like copper, zinc is relatively expensive and its equally beautiful and durable

Metal’s Life-Cycle Cost

Compared to many other roofing materials, metal is one of the most cost-effective. While the upfront expense may run higher than asphalt shingles, metal roofing warranties are typically very good, especially for color-coated panels which can withstand damage and natural deterioration due to wind and other harsh elements of regions that lie south of Lake Erie. The long-lasting durability of this traditional type of roofing also makes it a great value in the long-run!

Benefits of Metal Roofing:

Reduced HVAC bills
Improved curb appeal
Higher property value
Fire resistant
Added safety for you and your family
Save on property insurance premiums
Recycled and recyclable
