What most Washington homeowners desire is a roof that's not too expensive, requires no maintenance, and lasts forever. But most roofs are replaced - or at least repaired - every ten years.Today, standing-seam metal roofing is the most popular residential metal roofing. Metal roofs can also be made to resemble wood shakes, clay tiles, shingles, and Victorian metal tiles which are rapidly gaining in popularity. Aluminum or coated steel is formed into individual shingles or tiles, or into modular panels four feet long that mimic a row of shingles or tiles. The wide range of available colors and the light weight of metal have created a world of new options in new home building or remodeling.Metal roofs are durable, fire retardant and almost maintenance-free. They are also energy efficient; metal reflects heat and blocks its transfer into the attic. Metal roofs absorb 34 percent less heat than asphalt shingles, and homeowners switching to metal roofing reported saving up to 20 percent on their energy bills.

Getting multiple bids is helpful, but its not always smart to automatically go with the lowest bid. There are a lot of "fly-by-night" roofing companies who will give a low bid to get your job and then provide you with sub par workmanship and materials.Is the Roofer Properly Insured? Residential roofing contractors should be able to provide you with evidence of liability insurance and workers compensation certificates (workers compensation laws vary by state). If the roofer is not adequately insured, its possible that you could be held liable if there is a significant accident that occurs at your home.Is the Roofer Properly Licensed? Many states require a specific licensing for roofers and others do not. If your state has specific licensing requirements, check to make sure your selected roofing contractor has the necessary license. Simple asking the roofer to show you a copy will usually get the job done. You may need to double check with your state's licensing board to see if a license is required.Does the Roofer Have a Proven Track Record?How long has the roofing contractor been in business? Can they provide references from recently completed roof installations in your area?
