Decra Roofing Installation in the Denver Area

Decra roofing in Denver and surrounding areas is a favorite roofing option of our experts at New Roof Plus. We install Decra stone-coated steel roofing on homes in Denver, the Denver suburbs, and surrounding mountain homes too. A stone-coated steel roof can withstand everything that our climate can throw at it. This includes hail, wind, fire, intense sun exposure, heavy snow, and more.

This home that you see in this post is getting a new Decra stone-coated steel roof and it is located in Larkspur Colorado. Larkspur is a beautiful town south of Denver that is in a pine forest setting. This environment puts unique stresses on different roofing materials. Some of the more traditional materials like asphalt can have more trouble than the more durable materials like steel, metal, and composite roofing.  Pine needles and other debris can build up on many roofs and cause rot in certain materials. This debris needs to be removed no matter what roof type you have, but roofing material like stone-coated steel from Decra will not rot.

Denver Residential Metal Roofing for Hail, Fire and Beauty

New Roof Plus installs residential metal roofing on beautiful homes across Colorado. From Rocky Mountain homes to suburban Denver homes, metal roofing can add a cool architectural element like none other. Residential Denver homeowners are using more metal roofing now than ever for many reasons. From a complete standing seam metal roof to using metal roofing in just certain areas, metal roofing adds a touch of class and sophistication.

Residential Metal Roofing Benefits

Residential metal roofing has a lot of benefits for a homeowner to consider. Yes, metal roofing looks great but it also gets 5 Stars for:

• Hail. Metal typically has a hail rating of Class 4. This means typical hail will not damage the metal roof as it can to traditional asphalt shingle.
• Snow. Metal tends to slough off snow better than other materials.
• Fire. Metal doesn’t burn. If you are in a fire-prone area, a metal roof is a good first line of defense from floating embers.
• Durability. Metal roofing lasts for decades.

These are just a few benefits that are tangible. In fact, aesthetically and architecturally, residential metal roofing is elegant and strong. New Roof Plus installs a lot of residential metal roofing across the Denver metro area and in the mountain communities of Evergreen, Conifer, and even up into Winter Park and Granby areas.

Metal Roofing Denver – Looking Good!

Denver metal roofing installer, New Roof Plus, installs a wide variety of styles in metal roofing. If you are researching residential metal roofing, we have quite a lot of experience with this. If you are looking for information on commercial metal roofing for a building, we also have some cool projects we have been involved with.

Whether for residential metal roofing or commercial metal roofing, metal roofing is versatile. It is super durable. It is used as accent areas, complimenting other roofing materials like composite shake or tile. It is just as often used as a complete roofing system. It is architecturally interesting and adds texture and style like no other material.

Metal Roofing for Homes

Denver metal roofing companies, like New Roof Plus, install metal roofs on homes or as they are sometimes called steep slope roofs. Metal roofs on a residential home can look very high-end, especially when complemented with other roofing shingle materials.  This mix of materials gives a super unique, custom look. Composite shingles that are impact and wind resistant and their high definition look mix beautifully with flat smooth metal options.

If you look around at new construction going up in the Denver area, you will see a lot of metal roofing integration. This exterior metal high-end industrial look is not too new. Chipotle Mexican Grill was an innovator many years ago in the use of high-end metal inside their stores. They mixed corrugated metal cut-outs of Aztec figures, along with metal panels at the counter areas – along with metal tables. They took the metal industrial look and made it sleek and high-end.

Metal Roofing in Denver

The Highlands area in north Denver is a great place to cruise around for metal roofing ideas. Here you will find an abundance of new buildings with metal roof integrations and retrofit buildings with metal roofing. This part of town has grown so much over the past 10 years or so. Real estate values have skyrocketed and investors are pouring money into development. Each

building owner wants their structure to be unique, to be attractive, and stand the test of time. This could be a reason metal roofing is being used so much.

Mountain homes and buildings have long used metal as a primary roofing source. Originally, metal roofing was installed for practical purposes. It was durable for harsh weather, it was relatively cheap, it works great at handling snow loads and it was easy to maintain. But as buildings and mountain homes have improved, metal roofing has improved as well. A metal roof is now the standard for most new construction.

Other Metal Roofing Ideas

When someone says metal roofing, most people think of a mountain cabin or farm building that has standing seam metal roofing installed. This is the classic metal roof that can come in several colors like red and green most notably. But there are many other options to consider.

Metal roofing options include Stone Coated Steel metal roofing. This material is pressed metal designed to look like shake roofing or tile roofing. The shape is pressed into the metal and then it gets coated with various colors of stone and resin. This manufacturing process has been in existence since the early 1900s but has continued to be improved. It is a very popular choice still today. It gives a high-end finish look. It is very durable. It looks like shake but it is not wood.

New Roof Plus specializes in these metal roofing solutions in Colorado. We have installed metal on beautiful Denver homes and many mountain properties as well. We have also worked on many commercial roofing projects – installing new roofs on many Texas Roadhouse restaurants across the southwest US as well.
