Destructive Hail and Metal Roofs:
Another reason for metal roofing’s increasing popularity is its resistance to hail. Hail can be damaging to any roof system and we’ve seen storms here in Montana and Wyoming that take their toll on everything in their path, and no roofing material is immune. Metal roofing offers the best protection from leaks caused by punctures in the roofing material. While it may dent from the force of the hail, typically there is no immediate concern due to an exposed roof deck. Metal roofing systems will withstand large steel balls dropped from 50-70 feet above, and even ice shot from air cannons. Metal roofing carries the best UL 2218 rating of class IV, and as a result home owners may receive special discounts along with lowered insurance premiums. Metal roofing will maintain its strength and durability even as it ages.
