METAL ROOFING

Advantages of metal roofs

At Toitures D.S. Roofing, we offer a wide range of metal roofing products that will meet all needs and budgets. Our certified roofing technicians can install, repair and maintain these roofs to ensure they will protect your property for many years to come.

Longevity and life expectancy:

The vast majority of metal roofing products are backed by a manufacturer's warranty of at least 50 years, and many of them come with a lifetime warranty. With proper maintenance, this roof can last as long as the house itself. Therefore, you can increase the price of the property if you decide to sell it. Note that the warranty will only be valid if the system is installed by certified professional roofers. If all manufacturer's installation and maintenance instructions are followed, you should have no problem transferring the warranty to the new owner after the sale.

Weatherproof:

Modern metal roofs are designed to be very weather resistant. One of their main advantages is that they are not affected by extreme temperature variations, which makes these systems an ideal choice for residents of Gatineau.

Weight:

Metal roofing products are lightweight, which means they can be installed on any structure. Some types of roofing, like slate, are too heavy to use on older residences and don't allow for many creative designs, but this material allows you to create any type of roof construction you can dream of. In some cases, metal roofing can be installed over an old roof.

Fire resistant:

Although a metal roof cannot completely stop or prevent a fire, it can effectively minimize the spread of a fire. If a fire breaks out nearby, the risk of your roof being ignited by hot flames is minimal.

Energetic efficiency:

There are specific metal roof coverings that can increase the energy efficiency of this roofing system. They will make the surface reflective, meaning it will actually reflect light and heat from the sun. This will reduce your energy bills during the summer months as the building will be cooler by default to operate. If the system is well insulated, it will effectively prevent the loss of valuable heat during the cold season.

Environmental impact:

Up to 95% of the roofing can be done using recycled metal, making these systems one of the most environmentally friendly choices available today. Additionally, the roof can be recycled again if you choose to replace it.

The cost of a metal roof depends on its size, configuration, material and style. At Toitures D.S. Roofing, we have the expertise to help you design the affordable metal roofing solution you dream of and provide you with a fast and accurate quote.

Metal shingles

Metal shingles are a common base material for residential roofs. Metal shingles are typically designed to interlock, meaning each shingle is interlocked with six others on all four sides. The main advantage of the interlocking design of metal shingle roofs is the resulting high reliability, as the roof is very durable, with each shingle supported by the six other shingles surrounding it.

Toitures D.S. Roofing offers other types of metal roof installations, such as metal roof panels and standing seam systems (single sheet metal roofs).

Installation of a metal roof

Installing a metal roof can be a very dangerous procedure, making safety our top priority.
