Metal Roofs that look like clay tile or barrel tile are all the rage when compared to the real clay or barrel tile. With a weight one-seventh of a clay tile roof, a metal tile roof is a perfect option when it comes to roofing your home. You get the same type of tile look, with lower maintenance, energy benefits, insurance discounts and a lifetime warranty.
Important Note: Most homes are not even built to support the weight of a tile roof, which could cost $10-$15,000 dollars to retrofit your home. This leaves a stone coated steel metal roof as a perfect option with the weight being only about 150 lbs per sq.
The two most popular metal tile roofs have a stone coated steel application, which means instead of paint, there is a stone coating adhered to the steel to provide a textured look. The stone coating are granules, much like the granules you would find on a composition shingle roof. Unlike a painted metal roof, the stone coated look provides a less shiny, more textured look.
