If you’re concerned that your metal roof won’t stand against the weather and elements, you can relax. Metal roofing can handle winds up to 150 miles per hour! Metal roofs are also leakproof, which means they can withstand heavy rain. This is in stark contrast to other roofing materials! Metal roofs are non-combustible and easily more resistant to flames than shingle or asphalt roofing. There’s nothing about metal roofing that makes it more attractive to lightning, especially if you remember that lightning always hits the highest object in an area. The low weight of a metal roof helps avoid the risk of a cave-in. Cave-ins can occur when water or fire damage causes the roof to collapse. With less weight, there’s a much lower risk. We see hail in Florida sometimes, and this is probably the greatest weakness of the metal roof. Because the straight-seam metal roof is made of flat panels, they are susceptible to dents and finish damage. Fortunately, you can cap over the hail-damaged shingles when necessary.

Why Roof Financing Can Be a Good Idea
It’s easy to forget about your roof, and homeowners often put off repairing or replacing an aging roof until serious warning signs appear. Other times, Mother Nature may wreak havoc with your shingles or send a wayward tree branch that causes damage.

If you’ve built up a fund for roof maintenance and repair, that’s great, but many times we’re left unprepared when roof needs come calling. Even if the damage is covered by your insurance, you may be left with a hefty deductible that’s not in your budget. Or, you may decide it’s time to replace the entire roof with new and improved materials rather than do a repair.

Enjoy Low Monthly Payments
When you finance a new roof, you can benefit from low monthly payments. This lets you pay for your roof in installment amounts you can afford and prevents you from having to pay for a multi-thousand-dollar roof project in one lump sum.

Depending on your payment terms and credit history, you may also be able to benefit from low-interest rates during the life of the loan.

 
Quick Approval Process
Applying for roof financing can be an easy, seamless process thanks to modern technology. You can apply for roof financing right now and completely eliminate paperwork. You will need to provide some basic information to get started. Once you submit your information, we will contact you with more information. Final approval notices usually arrive within minutes.
