Exploring Durability and Longevity of Metal and Slate Roofs
When it comes to durability, both metal and slate roofs stand out as robust choices. Metal roofs are known for their resistance to harsh weather conditions, including high winds, hail, and heavy snowfall. They are also highly resistant to fire, making them a safe choice for many homeowners. On average, a metal roof can last between 40 to 70 years, depending on the specific material used and the quality of installation.
Slate roofs, on the other hand, are often heralded as the gold standard in roofing materials due to their incredible longevity. A well-maintained slate roof can last over a century, with some historical buildings bearing original slate roofs that are still intact. Slate is also highly resistant to fire and weather damage, making it a reliable option. However, natural stone material can be more susceptible to cracking under certain conditions, such as heavy impact.
To enhance your roofs durability and longevity, we suggest fastening your roofing with BECK’s SCRAIL® ROOFLOC® System or the FASCO® (a BECK brand) Slate Hook System.
