Why Choose Metal Roofs in Durham
Durability
Metal roofs are rated as “Class IV” shingles. It means that metal roofs can withstand harsh weather conditions with little to zero dents.
It includes heavy rainfall, strong winds, hail and snow. Also, it has the highest rating for roofing materials.
The city of Durham experiences 46 inches of rain every year. It is higher than the national average of 38 inches (National Weather Service).
To withstand such rainfall, you need a roof that is durable and water-resistant. In such cases, metal roofs offer reliable protection against water leakage or damage.
Longetivity
On average, a properly installed metal roof can last up to 40-70 years (Metal Roofing Alliance). In comparison to asphalt shingles, it can typically last 20-25 years or even less.
Also to durability and longevity, it also requires very minimal maintenance. As a result, it is a cost-effective option.
In Durham, the humidity levels are high during the summer.
It causes the traditional shingles to deteriorate faster than expected. But, metal can resist such moisture-related damage and preserve its lifespan.
Aesthetic Appeal
In the modern age, metal is available in many different types and colors. It can be customized to any kind to match your home’s aesthetic.
It starts from sleek, modern looks to traditional design. They can mimic the appearance of shingles, slate or even tiles.
Thus, the flexibility to achieve your dream with metal roofs is endless. With Proway Works, you have the option of choosing from more than 100 colors. Also, it is available in many types.
Low Maintainence
As stated earlier, metal roofing systems need deficient maintenance. They are significantly less susceptible to any wear and tear or damage caused by temperature change or heavy precipitation.
But, materials like asphalt can warp, crack or lose shingles in the same weather conditions.
In Durham, we experience about 101 days of precipitation every year (National Weather Service). It is almost one-third of a year.
Constant exposure to harsh weather conditions can take a massive hit on traditional roofs. In the worst case, requiring frequent repairs.
With a Class IV-rated material like metal, you can go years with little to no maintenance. At Proway Works, we would always suggest homeowners opt for metal rather than asphalt.
Eco-Friendly
Metal is an environmentally friendly option. It contains recycled content inside the material. As a result, it can be recycled once again at the end of its usage.
It reduces the amount of waste filled in landfills, lowering pollution.
Also, it minimizes any sort of environmental impact due to roof replacements. In the case of traditional roofs, like asphalt, it can’t be recycled at the end of their lifespan.
Thus, it gets dumped and burnt in landfills. It does have a negative effect on the atmosphere and environment.
Also, depending on the type of metal, it can reflect up to 70% of the sun’s solar energy (Long Home Products). It will help to keep your property’s indoor cooler during Durham’s hot summers.
This energy-efficiency trait reduces your cooling costs. According to Decra Metal Roofing, a newly installed metal roof can save 40% in energy and utility bills.

Types of Metal Roof We Offer
Standing Seam Metal
At Proway Works, we always recommend property owners install standing seam metal. It is known for its modern, sleek appearance and better durability.
They feature raised seams that run vertically along the roof. It creates a streamlined look. The interlocking seams provide high protection for any water infiltration or penetration. In comparison to other metal types, standing seam is highly resistant to leakage.
Also, standing seam is ideal for a climate where rainfall is frequent. Durham is the perfect example of it.
The raised seams allow the water to flow off the roof efficiently. It can battle against occasional storms and hail pretty well, as well.
At the same time, the concealed fasteners provide a clean look. It is available in a variety of color options for you to choose from.
Corrugated
Out of all the metal roof options, corrugated metal is an affordable and practical option. It is used commonly for both residential and commercial properties.
The corrugated metal features a wavy or ridged pattern. It is lightweight and easy to install compared to other metal types. With proper installation and maintenance, corrugated metal can last up to 50 years or even more.
It is a decent option for homes in Durham that experience heavy rainfall and high humidity. Yet, in corrugated metal panels, you need to install screws.
In the aftermath of a harsh weather condition, the screws can get loosened or weakened. As a result, it can cause water leakage or damage.
In the following years of installation, it might require frequent inspections to keep the screws in place tightened.
Shingles
Metal shingles are created to mimic the appearance of other materials. A few examples include slates, tiles, wooden shakes, asphalt shingles and more. Most importantly, you have added characteristics of metal along with the look.
Just like any other metal type, it offers durability and longevity. Also, energy efficiency is a crucial trait of the material.
For Durham’s harsh weather, it is highly resistant to impact. It includes withstanding hails and occasional severe storms.
At Proway Works, we offer metal shingles in various styles and colors. As a homeowner, you have a range of flexibility and options. So, it can be easily customized to any traditional look you prefer.
Copper
It is one of the most premium and luxury metal roofing options. With proper installation, it can last for sixty to a hundred years (Forbes). The specialty of copper is its patina. As time passes, copper roofs develop a beautiful patina that adds character to any home.
Also, copper is known for its extreme durability. It is highly resistant to corrosion in any humid climate, like Durham.
But, its appearance and long lifespan can be a worthwhile investment. It can undoubtedly add value and beauty to any property. But it does come with a heavy price tag.
