I didn’t feel I was going to like the metal roof, however I love it! I am a unquestionably particular person, and in general I don’t like loud noises, however for example, I don’t like going to live music concerts, because the volume is constantly far too high for my liking, but i won’t even go to the film theater, because I love keeping the volume low and watching subtitles on my TV… When the roofing business pitched me the idea of switching to a metal roof, I was not interested.
I felt that the sound of rain or hail hitting the metal roofing would be cacophonous and aggravatedting for me, and after I did more research online, I learned a lot more about roof replacement and a few things changed my mind.
For example, sheet metal roofing instead of shingles provides a giant number of benefits, including strength, durability, and another layer of protection from the house. I live in a state with a lot of hurricanes every year, and this felt like getting a suit of armor for my roof replacement, but because of this added layer of protection, the new roofing would even reduce my homeowner’s insurance premiums! With that in mind I booked the local roofing business to put a metal roof on my home, and I have been thrilled with the results. I expected the metal roofing to sound like the tin roof on a shed, however that is not the case at all… The metal roofing has a quiet however musical sound when hit with the falling raindrops, and I find it enchanting.
