A few things our customers normally ask us...

Why a metal roof?

Whether your style is open and breezy by the bay, Spanish Colonial, Victorian, or anything in between; there is a metal roof to cap off the story of your home.

Our depth of experience combines with a passion for delivering industry–advancing innovation, while maximizing cost efficiencies and sustainability. 

What is the maximum size of metal sheets you offer?

The maximum size of metal sheets we offer depends on the specific material and product. Please contact us for more information and to discuss your specific needs.

Is a metal roof noisier than other roofing materials?

A metal roof is typically installed over your attic space with insulation plus a roof deck and underlayment. This makes the metal roofs no more noisy than other roofing materials on the market. 

Is a metal roof heavier than other roofing materials?

No. On average a metal roof is 50% lighter than an asphalt shingle roof and 75% lighter than concrete tile, fiber cement shakes, and slate. 

Does a metal roof perform better in heavy snowfall?

 Yes. Metal roofing is a popular choice for homes in areas with heavy snowfall. A metal roof sheds snow quickly, and thereby protects the integrity of the roof by eliminating ice damming at the eaves that can cause water back up that eventually leaks into your home. .

Are metal roofs fire and lightning safe?

Yes. Metal roofs are safer than most roofing material in the event of a lightning strike. They are not combustible. Also, QOP Metal Roof Systems carry a UL class “A” fire rating for roof coverings, which are evaluated for the ability to resist spread of fire into the attic, resist flame spreading and resist generating burning embers. 

Are metal roofs energy efficient?

Yes. QOP Metal roofs reflect rather than absorb the sun’s heat energy, which makes it one of the most energy efficient roof systems available. 

Is a metal roof environmentally friendly?

Indeed, our roofs consist of 30-60% recycled materials and are completely recyclable after their lifespan.

How long will a QOP metal roof last?

 A QOP metal roof typically endures 2-3 times longer than asphalt roofs and requires minimal maintenance, eliminating the need for periodic repair costs.
