FAQs
What makes a metal systems roof energy-saving compared to traditional asphalt shingles?
Metal roofing reflects a significant portion of the sun’s radiant heat instead of absorbing it, which lowers attic temperatures and reduces the load on your air-conditioning system. Many panels also feature high-performance, cool-roof coatings that enhance reflectivity and emissivity, delivering energy savings of 10–25% on cooling costs over the life of the roof.
How long can I expect an energy-saving metal roof from Pioneer to last?
With proper installation and minimal maintenance, our steel and aluminum systems roofs typically last 40–70 years—more than double the lifespan of architectural shingles. They resist cracking, shrinking, and eroding, and they withstand high winds, hail, and wild temperature swings common in our region.
Will a metal roof make my home noisier during rain or hail?
No. When installed over solid decking with an approved underlayment—as Pioneer always does—metal roofing is no louder than other roofing materials. In fact, the combination of decking, insulation, and attic airspace dampens sound, often making indoor noise levels quieter than those under older shingle roofs.
Is a metal systems roof heavier than other roofing options?
Surprisingly, metal roofing is one of the lightest options available—50–60% lighter than asphalt shingles and up to 75% lighter than slate or concrete tile. The lighter weight means less structural stress on your home and may allow installation directly over an existing shingle roof in certain cases, saving tear-off costs.
What maintenance is required to keep my energy-saving metal roof performing at its best?
Maintenance is minimal: keep gutters clear, trim back overhanging branches, and hose off pollen or debris when needed. Metal does not support mold or moss growth, and our fade-resistant finishes rarely require repainting. We recommend a professional inspection every 3–5 years—or after severe weather—to ensure flashings and fasteners remain secure.
How does the upfront cost of a metal roof compare, and can it increase my home’s value?
While a metal systems roof costs 2–3 times more upfront than quality asphalt shingles, its extended lifespan, lower energy bills, and reduced maintenance make the lifetime cost comparable or even lower. In real-estate studies, homeowners recoup up to 85–95% of the installation cost through increased resale value, and buyers appreciate the 30- to 50-year transferable warranty Pioneer provides.
