Chapter 4: Strength for the Long Run
Life is hard. Mother Nature is harder, especially on non-steel roofing materials which begin to deteriorate immediately after they are installed from exposure to damaging ultraviolet rays of the sun, expansion and contraction as a result of temperature changes and the effect of hailstones, heavy snow pack, ice and wind. An Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roof, however, can take extreme weather conditions and still look and protect like new for a lifetime.
Chapter 5: Beautifully Efficient
There’s more to the beautiful colors and designs of an Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roof than meets the eye. For example, the lighter-colored roofs are designed to effectively reflect the sun’s heat and reduce the need to cool your home during the hot summer months, some colors are approved green and tax credits may be available. Our “dead air” buffer zone between your new Allmet roof and old roof also insulates against heat loss in winter months. What a beautiful way to lower your energy bills.
Chapter 6: Putting Our Warranty Where Our Mouth Is
You don’t need to take anyone’s word for how long an Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roof will last. Our roofs come with impressive LIFETIME WARRANTIES including a 120 m.p.h. Wind Warranty, a 2.5 inch Hailstone Warranty.
Chapter 7: Metal Myths Unmasked
Is Lightning Attracted to a Metal Roof?
There is absolutely no increase in the likelihood of your home being struck by lightning if you have a metal roof. In fact, if lightning does strike your Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roof, the energy safely dissipates throughout the entire roof surface, and can exit into the ground. Also, because metal roofing is NOT combustible or flammable, it is an even smarter choice when severe weather is a possibility.
Is a Stone Coated Steel Roof a Noisy Roof?
Absolutely not! Now hear this: an Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roof is often much quieter than even an asphalt shingle roof. Because of our unique installation method that creates a sound and temperature “buffer zone” of dead air space, along with our beautifully functional stone coated surface, even a torrential rain striking the roof panels is no louder than it would be on a heavy wood shake roof.
Is Rust a Problem with a Stone Coated Steel Roof?
No! In fact, Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roof panels are made from high quality 26-gauge, pre-primed, Galvalume steel that is coated with an acrylic basecoat. Ceramic earth-stone granules are then embedded over this basecoat. Finally, a clear acrylic over-glaze is applied and baked on. This provides your home with a long-lasting, durable and fade-resistant protection for a lifetime of enjoyment.
Is Denting a Problem?
Again, no! In fact, Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roofs can and do stand up to hailstones, snow loads and extreme wind conditions without any structural or cosmetic damage. That’s one reason our weatherproof warranties include a 120mph Wind Warranty (equal to an F2 tornado!) and 2.5 inch Hailstone Warranty.
Standing Up for Durability
If you’ve heard anyone say that a metal roof shouldn’t be walked on, they’re obviously not talking about a Allmet Stone Coated Steel Roof. Our unique interlocking panel design, rugged 26-gauge Galvalume steel construction and proven installation methods provide a strong roof system that can be walked on under normal conditions.
