Why should you consider a steel roof?
1) ENERGY EFFICIENT - No, steel roofs will not make your home hot. You should actually expect a reduction in your energy bills. A properly vented steel roof allows air to move between the shingles and the underlying deck as well as under decking from vents. Heated air is allowed to dissipate through the ridgeline as cooler air is drawn through eave vents. You should expect reduced energy bills as a result of the airflow both over and under the decking.
2) FIRE SAFETY - Steel roofing is classified as a noncombustible roofing material (Class A). Not only will the spreading of a fire be minimized, but the lightweight strength of the steel roofing system prevents it from collapsing down on residents exposed to a fire in their home.
3) WIND RESISTANT / STORM SAFE & QUIET - Not only have steel roofs been proven to resist wind speeds in excess of 120 m.p.h. but the steel roofing system is actually quiet during rain and hail storms. The combination of dead air space and the stone coating minimize the noise. Steel panels show no visible signs of hail stones except in the most extreme conditions. Some insurance companies offer discounts on homeowners' premiums due to the strength and safety factors of steel roofs.
4) WARRANTY - Roofing warranties that are simply unmatched in the industry - it's a smart investment in your home!

FIFTY (50) YEAR WORKMANSHIP AND MATERIALS WARRANTY
TWENTY FIVE (25) YEAR APPEARANCE WARRANTY
120-MILES PER HOUR WIND SPEED WARRANTY AND HAIL STONE IMPACT PENETRATION
"It's been a year since we had our new metal roof installed by Block Construction. Although the cost was more than asphalt, the benefits are all that we expected and more. Specifically we just went through the hottest summer we can remember and our house was the most comfortable and easy to cool with the same or lower energy usage! Additionally the ice dam problem we had with the old asphalt roof is fixed and we have the comfort knowing that we have a true 50 year warranty on the roof. My neighbors have also commented on how attractive the shake roof style looks. Thanks again for a wonderful job"

"Among all of the various home improvement projects we've had, the roof replacement project through Block was the best - on time, on budget and well done. Some time after the project was completed, we noticed the small particles from the old cedar roof had gotten past the gutter guard and clogged our gutters. Dan was out within two days to clean the gutters for free. Unlike our other projects, Dan showed up each day during construction to supervise."
