Metal Roofing Can Weather the Elements


Nashville Metal Roofing
You’ve probably heard it before: your home is only as sound as its roof. That’s why metal roofing is such a terrific choice. Among its many benefits is the tremendous durability of metal, with the ability to withstand the harsh elements of nature, including rain, hail, ice, snow, winds, and thunderstorms.

Strong Winds
Your Nashville metal roofing system does a superb job of standing up to strong winds. In fact, when it comes to the severe winds that are often so punishing for roofs, metal is one of the best choices you can make. Did you know that a metal roof in good condition is able to withstand winds equivalent to an F5 tornado, up to 150 mph? That’s pretty impressive if you ask us.

Hail
When we think of metal in association with hail, we can tend to think of it as being somewhat vulnerable, considering what it can do to our vehicles. Although metal will sometimes exhibit light impressions from the impact of hail, it is far more resistant than either asphalt or fiberglass. In fact, metal roofs have the highest hail rating granted by the insurance industry.  

Rain, Ice, Snow
Easy math says that metal + water = rust, right? Not so when it comes to Nashville metal roofing material.
Modern metal roofing material is coated with a zinc and aluminum formulation to render it corrosion free for many, many years. That makes metal roofing a superior choice that stands up powerfully to water elements such as rain, ice, snow, and condensation.
