What’s Involved
Metal Roofing in the Shenandoah Valley
Metal suits a lot of properties in this region. It sheds snow and water readily, it stands up to wind well when fastened correctly, and it lasts considerably longer than an asphalt covering. On agricultural buildings and long-span structures it is often the only sensible choice.
Installation detail matters more with metal than with shingle. Panels expand and contract with temperature, so the fastening has to allow for that movement rather than pinning the panels rigidly. Get that wrong and the fixings work loose or the panels distort.

Metal Roofing Questions
Common Questions
How long does a metal roof last?
Considerably longer than a typical asphalt roof, which is a large part of why people choose it. Service life depends on the system and the quality of installation.
Is metal noisy in rain?
Not in the way people expect. Over a solid deck with underlayment, a metal roof is far quieter than the bare-barn-roof reputation suggests.
Can you match the metal on an older building?
Often, yes. On period farmhouses we can match traditional profiles so a replacement looks right on a nineteenth-century building.
