FAQs
What advantages does a metal roof offer for homes and businesses in New Market?
Metal roofing is extremely durable and well-suited to the temperature swings and seasonal storms we experience in New Market. A properly installed metal roof can withstand winds over 140 mph, sheds heavy rain and snow quickly, resists hail damage better than asphalt shingles, and is naturally fire-resistant. Metal panels also reflect a large portion of the sun’s radiant heat, lowering cooling bills in our hot, humid summers. Because the material is lightweight, it often places less structural load on older buildings, and its modern finishes boost curb appeal and resale value.
How long can I expect a metal roof to last compared with traditional asphalt shingles?
A quality steel or aluminum roof will typically last 40–70 years, while premium systems such as standing-seam aluminum or copper can exceed 80 years with minimal maintenance. By comparison, conventional asphalt shingles generally need replacement every 15–25 years in the Mid-Atlantic climate. Over its lifetime, a metal roof therefore eliminates two or three asphalt re-roof cycles, saving you both money and the inconvenience of repeated tear-offs.
Will a metal roof rust or corrode in New Market’s humid climate?
Modern metal roofing panels are manufactured with multiple layers of protection. Galvanized steel receives a zinc (or zinc-aluminum) metallic coating, followed by an advanced PVDF or SMP paint finish that seals out moisture and UV rays. Aluminum roofing, which is naturally corrosion-resistant, is an excellent choice for properties near farm fields or areas with fertilizer overspray. As long as basic maintenance—such as clearing debris from valleys and gutters—is performed, today’s coated metal panels will resist rust and corrosion for decades.
How energy-efficient is metal roofing, and can it lower my utility bills?
Yes. The reflective pigments in a cool-roof metal finish bounce back solar radiation before it is absorbed into the attic, reducing roof-surface temperatures by up to 50 °F on a sunny July afternoon. Homeowners in New Market typically see summertime cooling-cost savings of 10-25 %, and many qualify for federal energy tax credits or local utility rebates when they choose ENERGY STAR®-certified metal products. Pairing the roof with proper attic ventilation and insulation maximizes those savings year-round.
What does metal roof replacement cost in New Market, and what factors influence the price?
Installed pricing for residential metal roofing in our area currently averages $8–$14 per square foot, depending on panel profile (corrugated, ribbed, or standing-seam), metal gauge, finish, roof pitch, and the complexity of valleys, dormers, or skylights. While this is higher than the $4–$6 per square foot for architectural asphalt shingles, the longer service life and lower maintenance of metal typically deliver a better long-term return on investment. We offer free on-site assessments, detailed written estimates, and several financing options to spread the cost over time.
Can a new metal roof be installed over my existing shingles?
Often, yes. Building codes in Frederick County permit metal to be installed over up to two layers of asphalt shingles, provided the underlying deck is dry, structurally sound, and properly fastened. We place a synthetic underlayment or 1×4 wood battens over the old roof before attaching the metal panels, which saves tear-off labor, keeps thousands of pounds of roofing waste out of local landfills, and shortens the installation timeline. However, if your current roof shows signs of rot, severe waviness, or ventilation problems, we will recommend a full tear-off to ensure a flawless, long-lasting result.
