A dark metal roof against a cloudy sky.

Asphalt shingles and metal are the two most popular roofing choices. Here’s how they compare.

Cost

Shingles cost less upfront. Metal costs more to install but lasts two to three times longer.

Durability and maintenance

Metal resists wind, fire and hail better and needs very little maintenance. Shingles are easier and cheaper to repair.

Our advice

The right choice depends on your budget, how long you plan to stay, and your local weather. We’ll show you real quotes for both options.
