If your roof took a beating in last weekend’s East Texas hailstorm, you’re probably wondering what to do next. While patching up damaged shingles may seem like the most affordable option, this might be the perfect opportunity to upgrade to something built to withstand severe weather – a metal roof.
Metal roofs are hail-resistant, protecting your home during Texas’ wild weather seasons. Let’s explore why the investment could bring long-term savings and peace of mind.
Why Now? The Hidden Costs of Hail Damage
Even if your asphalt shingles look intact, hidden damage like bruising can shorten their lifespan. Repeated hailstorms progressively weaken the roof. While your shingles may survive this storm, future leaks or early failure is likely.
Metal roofing is rated to withstand hailstones larger than golf balls – the size reported in Tyler. Unlike shingles that dent, quality metal roofing bounces hail right off. No hidden damage to worry about down the road.
Say Goodbye to Hail Headaches
Unlike shingles that dent and crack, high-quality metal roofs are tested to withstand hailstones even larger than those we saw in Tyler. This translates to decades of worry-free protection – imagine never stressing about your roof during stormy seasons!
The Insurance Angle: It Pays to Go Metal
Repeated roof damage claims drive up insurance premiums. A hail-resistant metal roof eliminates those claims, keeping your rates in check. Plus, many insurance providers offer substantial discounts on metal roofs – sometimes up to 35%!
The Roof That Practically Pays for Itself
Asphalt shingles might last 20-25 years, meaning multiple costly replacements in your lifetime. In contrast, metal roofs provide 50+ years of resilient protection with minimal maintenance.
Rather than gambling on damaged shingles, upgrade to a metal roof and savor decades of financial peace of mind.
