[Efrem Debesay]

what is the advantage and disadvantage of metal roof in Ohio?

[Michael K Gallagher]

Hey @Efrem Debesay I work with an investment group out of Delaware OH, who are doing some major rehabs and they swear up and down by metal roofs.  Its the first they they do, slap a metal roof on the project.  I don't know the intricacies of how they are installed or if one is cheaper but I can say with 100% certainty they are going to be better in the snow/winter and extreme weather.  I assume metal roofs in general are more expensive so thats why builders, flippers, roofing companies push them because they are better for their margins, but if you are planning on holding the asset for the long haul I have to think metal is going to last way way longer.  and apart from that in my opinion they just look better!
