The aluminum roof is made from aluminum panels; it is lightweight, corrosive resistant, and malleable. The aluminum roof is said to have a lifespan of about 40-60 years. It’s energy-efficient which means it helps to keep the home cooler. It should also be noted that the aluminum roof is a metal roof.

Factors to consider when choosing a color for your Aluminum Roof 

The climate feel of your environment 

One of the factors to consider when choosing an aluminum roof color is the climate feel of your home. If you prefer light blue it will absorb less heat, but if you choose a darker color like deep blue there will be more absorbance of heat leading to a warmer home. Choose the color that suits you best depending on what you want to achieve as the climate of your home and what suits you best. If you’re staying in a colder place, you might consider choosing a darker color to keep your home warm.

Aesthetic and beauty

Another factor to put in place when considering choosing the color of your aluminum roof is beauty. The step-tiles, metrcoppo, and long-span roofs have their intricate features, but choosing a color that bespeaks beauty to you is paramount. If green color matches the paint of your house, and even your neighborhood, you might consider sticking to green over black. But, if your house is painted beige, you might consider sticking to a color that blends. The aesthetic feel of your house also matters in choosing a color. 

Maintenance of color

Just as a white shirt takes more detail in washing and maintaining as compared to darker colors, it’s the same for roofing. If you’re thinking in terms of keeping your roof color from dust and it looking dirtier, you might consider using a darker color. A lighter color reflects more dust on the roof and will require more maintenance. 

Neighborhood guidelines 

In some areas, there are set guidelines on how to build, what materials to use in building, and even colors to use. If you’re staying in an estate that requires a particular color in roofing, it’s also important to stick to the rules that have been assigned by the neighborhood. 

Choosing the best color for your aluminum roof borders on these factors and most importantly borders on what you want your home to highlight. To get your aluminum roof installed, contact us at Ide Roofing system
