There are many factors like size, number of surfaces, current weather damage, color selected, and more, but on average steel roofs cost about 2-3 times more than asphalt shingles. Our prices per square start at $550 installed, or $250 for those who are installing it themselves.

There are many colors available to choose from, and it is possible to combine different colors.

In general you can expect the roof to last 40-60 years, compared to 10-15 years for asphalt shingles.

There's slight increase in noise if you do not have an attic. There is no reduction in cell phone reception as cell phone towers are not generally located above your house and the signal travels through the walls, not through the roof.

Steel roofs are actually lighter than shingles, so they are always a better option if you consider the weight.

Steel has smooth surface, so walking on it is more dangerous than on shingles. Also dirt and sand from your shoes can scratch the paint surface. On lower slopes walking is possible, but still not advised.
