What it is
Metal roofing consists of large interlocking panels or individual shingles made from durable metals like steel, aluminum, or copper, creating a watertight barrier that outperforms most traditional roofing materials. It's one of the fastest-growing roofing choices for Indiana homeowners and businesses looking for long-term value and protection.

Material composition
Metal roofing comes in several material options to suit different needs and budgets.

Aluminum: Lightweight, rust-resistant, and ideal for humid or moisture-prone environments
Copper: A premium option with natural beauty and a patina that develops over time
Zinc: Extremely long-lasting and naturally corrosion-resistant

Metal roofing is one of the longest-lasting roofing materials on the market.
Steel and aluminum: 40–70 years
Copper and zinc: 80–100+ years with proper care

Indiana's freeze-thaw cycles and severe storms are no match for a properly installed metal roof.
Maintenance needs
Metal roofs require very little attention to stay in peak condition for decades.
Occasional inspection for loose fasteners or sealant wear
Clear debris and leaves from valleys and gutters to prevent water trapping
Re-coating or repainting every few decades is optional, not required
