Addressing Common Concerns

Is Metal Roofing Noisy?

Modern Answer: No. With proper insulation and solid sheathing, metal roofs are actually quieter than asphalt shingles. The combination of underlayment, insulation, and attic space creates excellent sound dampening.

Decibel rating: 52 dB (same as asphalt)

Do Metal Roofs Attract Lightning?

Scientific Fact: No. Metal roofing does not increase the likelihood of lightning strikes. In fact, if struck, metal safely dissipates the electrical charge and won't catch fire like other materials.

Fire rating: Class A (highest rating)
