Steel Roofing Experts Portage, IN

Steel roofing provides many of the same great benefits as all other metal roofing systems. It’s durable, eco-friendly, and cost-effective. However, it also has a zinc coating that increases its resilience and provides it with an extra layer of corrosion resistance.

This type of metal roofing is a popular choice among homeowners and businesses in the Portage area, where Alamo Roofing Contractors are the trusted steel roofing experts. Speak to us today to learn more about steel roofing or allow us to provide a free, no-obligation quote.

Alamo Roofing Contractors provides a variety of metal roof types from copper, corrugated, aluminum to standing seam metal roofing.

Types of Steel Roof Coatings

The two types of steel roofs are determined by their coatings.

Galvanized Steel

Galvanized steel is coated with a thin layer of zinc to make it more corrosion resistant. It can be coated in various thicknesses depending on the homeowner’s preference and how it will be used.

Galvalume Steel

Galvalume is a trademarked product that contains an aluminum-zinc alloy mixture and is slightly more protective than galvanized steel. It holds up better over time and is a popular extra measure against rust and corrosion.

Advantages of a Steel Roof

Fire Resistant

Steel roofing is more fire-resistant than other metal roofing types. It can prevent a fire from spreading and insulates the home from sparking. It has a Class A noncombustible rating, which is the highest rating possible, so you can rest assured your home is at its safest with a steel roof.

Recyclable

Steel roofing is 100% recyclable. It won’t end up in a landfill, and it’s so lightweight that transportation and installation are much cheaper than other roofing types.

Cost Effective

Steel roofing is extremely cost-effective. It can save you money on your HVAC bills in both the summer and the winter by deflecting the sun and insulating heat. It regulates the temperature inside your home efficiently, so your systems don’t have to work as hard. Another cost-saver is the fact steel roofing can be installed over an existing roof, foregoing the cost of removal and hauling away.

Cleans Easily

Steel resists the build-up of algae and other bacteria. A good rain storm can clean your steel roof for you, and in the winter, snow will slide off instead of adding extra weight and pressure to the frame of your home.

Longevity

The average lifespan of a steel roof is 50 years or more, so you’ll enjoy the long lasting effects of all these other benefits for as long as you own your home. What’s more, it will increase your curb appeal and resale value.

    When working on older homes there are always issues and it was that for us. When Alamo was working on the facia they noticed brick issues and former facia not installed flat. They worked hard and corrected all of it. Our salesman Frank … More is beyond outstanding. A true asset to the team. He staying in close contact as any issues arrived to be sure they were not only resolved but were corrected in a most professional way. The team that installed the steep roof did an outstanding job. We waited for a few good rains before posting this review. And we are so pleased to say not only is it the most amazing roof install neat & beautifully appealing, but it does the job!! No more roof leaks :). I must also take the time to point out of Frank our Salesman services and roof inspection. We had several companies out and he was the only one that took the time to truly look at all areas of the roof. He discovered a bullet in the roof in a spot that was not leaking. He and my husband worked together so outstanding to be sure the police had it to process correctly. Never would we have thought such a thing would be in our neighborhood. The police pointed out it could have been from very far away. When the job was done Frank came by once again to be sure we were very pleased. We reviewed some of the unforseen issues and he was sure to do proper adjustments for our family. Never have we worked with such an honest and compassionate sales person. They also did an amazing job on the gutters. To say this company is good, 5 stars is not enough. They truly are such a wonderful group of folks to work with. Thank you. If our son's brother in law can not get to our siding we will be sure to have them do that as well. We have all the confidence they will do a great job on that as well. The old slogan from ghostbusters... who ya gonna call? Well for roofing issues it is Alamo Roofing... they are the best.

    I recently had a mysterious roof leak that previous companies attempted to repair, while others couldn't begin to figure out where the leak was coming from. I called Alamo, Frank came out the next morning and in 15 minutes found the … More leak, quoted me an affordable price - and made certain the leak was repaired that same day - as we were expecting another "gully washer" of storms. Frank is personable, professional and has an attention to detail that is rarely seen - anymore. Everyone I met that day brought their "A" game. They have my business - as well as pop and ice cream that I gave them. LOL Call Alamo, meet Frank - all will be well.

    I had a leaking roof from a skylight that was previously replaced by another company 13 years ago. That co, Ruel Roofing, came out to look at it and they were very unprofessional and slapped some tar around skylight and roof still leaked. … More Contacted Alamo and Frank came out, inspected roof himself, gave me a quote on high quality skylight plywood and shingles and had the job done to perfection in a very timely manner. Highly recommend Alamo Construction!
