Metal roofing can be installed in lower temperatures all winter long.  If you have been thinking about purchasing a metal roof this year, don't get in a hurry just because cold weather is just around the corner.  Asphalt shingles should really only be installed at temperatures above 40F.  Metal roofing on the other hand can be installed professionally at much lower temperatures.  Take your time with your investment and make sure that you have prepared yourself with adequate research.  Visit www.decra.com for more information on  stone coated steel roofing.

Why is metal and steel roofing growing in the St.. Louis market?  The answer is easy--metal roofing outlasts asphalt shingle roofing every time.  If adequate research is completed by any consumer shopping for a new roof from a cost, aesthetic and efficiency standpoint, the smart purchase always leads to steel or metal roofing.

Take a quick view of the cost comparison between asphalt and stone coated steel roofing.  In the St. Louis market on a walkable pitch roof the cost of an asphalt shingle (25-30 year) install should be in the $225 to $300 cost per square (100 square feet).  An asphalt shingle roof without adequate ventilation might last 20 years.  Over a 40 year term the cost will be more than doubled due to inflation.  A stone coated steel roof Decra roof can be installed for about $500 per square.  50 years of stone coated steel makes purchasing an asphalt roof seem ridiculous.
