Common questions
Is a metal roof loud in rain
Not over a solid deck with underlayment and an insulated attic. The noise people remember is metal over open framing on a barn.
Can metal go over my existing shingles
Often yes, which saves the tear off. The decking has to be sound and the city has to allow it.
