Types of Steel Roof Coatings

Galvanized Steel

Galvanized steel has a protective coating made from 100% zinc to prevent corrosion. Some manufacturers add chromates to reinforce the coating, which protects your home even if the underlying steel becomes exposed. You can request various coating thicknesses, depending on your preference and application.

Galvalume Steel

Galvalume steel functions the same way as galvanized steel but with a zinc, aluminum, and silicon alloy. Aluminum and zinc make up about 99% of the mixture with trace amounts of silicon. The coating offers superior protection against oxidative and corrosive wear.

Benefits of Steel Roofing

Environmentally Friendly

Steel roofing in Northern Virginia and Maryland uses 100% recyclable material. Even after your roof reaches the end of its functional lifespan, the old panels can have a second life through recycling. Most other materials, such as asphalt shingles, will end up in landfills.

Environmental friendliness doesn’t start and stop with a roof replacement. Steel doesn’t experience wear and tear the same way as asphalt shingles, which suffer from the loss of granules and bald spots over time. You don’t have to worry about loose granules entering the ecosystem, because steel has a more wear-resistant barrier.

Affordability

Steel roofing provides outstanding value for its price. According to Modernize, the average cost per square foot for a steel roof is $3.35 to $4.50. Copper, tin, and zinc have higher prices, with some copper roofs costing $22 per square foot.

Steel roofs also last long two to three times longer than their asphalt counterparts. Most shingles remain functional for 40 to 80 years. The longevity means the short-term investment will pay dividends for your home value and decrease your home insurance rates.  

Durability

Well-maintained steel-roofing can last your home or business for more than a century. The material has a dense coating that repels moisture and reduces the chances of rust. If you’re interested in maximizing your residential property’s durability, we recommend galvanized steel over galvalume steel. 

Steel’s fortitude means you have to spend little time working about upkeep. The zinc coating and panel design can even withstand winds from 110 to 160 mph. Many manufacturers offer 40-year or lifetime warranties for steel roofing because of their long-term durability.

Steel roofing also provides better fire resistance than other metal roofing options. It has the highest noncombustible rating, ensuring you, your property, and your belongings are kept safe.
