While the initial cost is usually higher than an asphalt roof, a metal roof is a smarter long-term investment. Unlike asphalt, maintenance-free metal does not need to be replaced. Over the course of a lifetime, choosing a metal roof is definitely the cheaper and smarter alternative.
The resilience of metal roofs can mean significant savings on home insurance premiums. Check with your individual provider to be sure.
Signs that it may be time to replace your roof include the following:
- Damaged or missing shingles
- Cracks and leaks
- Shingles that curl at the bottom or lift during severe weather
- Shingles in your yard
- Bare spots and loss of colour
- Dark streaks (a sign of airborne algae)
- Moss growing (indicates too much moisture pooling on your roof)
- A roof that is over 20 years old

Yes. Metal roofs offer numerous environmental benefits. Unlike other shingles that end up in landfills, our long-lasting metal panels are comprised of up to 95 percent recycled materials and are 100% recyclable. Installed overtop of your current shingles, a metal roof eliminates the environmental impact of disposal.
In addition, metal is one of the most energy-efficient roofing materials available. By reducing attic and roof temperatures in summer, a metal roof extends the life of your air conditioner while also retaining heat in winter. The result is year-round energy efficiency and huge energy savings.
Mastershake roofs can withstand high winds, heavy rain, pounding hail, blistering heat, freezing temperatures and massive snowfall—while remaining intact.
Yes. Our metal roofing system can be installed any time of the year.
Mastershake uses 26-gauge lightweight metal panels. Compared to traditional asphalt shingles, they are two to three times lighter and therefore do not require a heavy roof support structure.
There are five main colour schemes: sepia brown, black, slate grey, charcoal grey and terra cotta. In addition, we offer specialized orders such as green and red or other colours as requested. To help you choose the best colour for your metal roof project, contact us today.
