Metal siding and wall panels still have a lot of misconceptions, despite its popularity. These myths about metal siding sometimes prevent customers from moving forward on using a metal siding material.

You want to install a metal roof on your home but your home has a really low slope. You may be wondering if a metal roof is a good idea, or even possible, when working with such a low pitch.

If you are a business owner, contractor, or architect, selecting the right material for your building is a daunting and critical task. As a business ourselves, we understand that not only do we need to pick the right material for our buildings, but we also have to keep our customers and communities in mind to create a building that is beautiful for everyone to see, and brings in positive externalities for the community as well.

Homes or buildings with a steep slope roof have the opportunity to design a roofing system that is the showpiece of their property since it’s on full display. A low slope roof, on the other hand, does not have that same opportunity as the roof has low visibility, or even none, when looking at it from street level. However, that doesn’t mean the type of roof you choose for a low slope isn’t important.

Choosing metal as your roofing material comes with many benefits, one of which is the large amount of color options and design possibilities available.

Surprisingly, one of the colors that has recently become more popular for a metal roof is green.

2021 has been a wild year for the metal industry as it experienced rapid price increases that resulted in steel prices hitting an all time high. As we mentioned in our last steel price update, this was due to increased demand and a supply shortage throughout the global steel market that left everyone scrambling to find raw material.
