ALUMINUM ROOFERS
Aluminum Roofing Specialists
Aluminum roofing is unique because it has some properties that other metal roofing does not. While it is durable, corrosion-resistant, cost-effective, and eco-friendly, aluminum roofing also doesn’t rust, enables more water runoff, and reflects the sun better than other metal roofing materials.
If you’re in the market for a metal roof, aluminum may be the right choice for you. It’s the perfect solution if you want something that is energy efficient and can withstand a variety of different types of weather, including acid rain.
Kirkness Roofing Inc. offers a variety of metal roof types, from standing seam, corrugated steel, and copper roofs.
What is Aluminum Roofing?
Aluminum roofing is made from – you guessed it – aluminum. It is incredibly lightweight, which makes it affordable because it cuts down on labor costs. It’s not quite as stylish as some other roofing types, and because of its reflective properties, it can be brighter than other materials.
While the look of aluminum bothers some people, others will appreciate the energy efficient properties this reflection gives it. One of the best features of aluminum is its malleability, meaning you can shape it to look like shingles, tile, or any other design you prefer. Like other metal roofing materials, it’s also recyclable, durable, long lasting, and cost-effective.
Temperature Regulation
One of the primary reasons why more people are choosing aluminum is because of its reflective properties. Aluminum can reflect almost 100% of the rays from the sun, meaning that your house will stay cool even when it’s hot outside.
You may be thinking there’s no advantage in winter, which is something we see a lot of in Minneapolis, but you would be surprised. Aluminum can also reflect heat back toward the inside of your house, so it stays warmer in the winter.
Traditionally, the roof is where you lose cold and hot air, so an aluminum roof is a great barrier to keep your home at an ideal temperature. With this type of roof, you’ll save money on your HVAC bills. Other metals are conduits of heat, but aluminum is the best regulator, helping you to enjoy more consistent temperatures inside your home throughout the year.
Weather Resistance and Durability
Aluminum is durable enough to last a long time. It can withstand extreme weather like most other metals without showing much wear and tear. High humidity, wind, acid rain, snow, sleet, hail, and other natural forces are no match for your aluminum roof. Because of its resistance to weather, aluminum is excellent for Billings homes.
Environmental Factors
Aluminum roofing is made from many recycled materials. Some aluminum roofing may contain up to ninety percent recycled metal. Your brand-new roof may not be brand new at all, and for some, this is part of the appeal. It’s environmentally friendly and cost effective.
Aluminum also takes less labor to install on the part of the aluminum roof contractor because it’s so lightweight. The work is easier and doesn’t take as long to complete. It’s also easier for the aluminum roofing service to transport the materials, saving the environment from excess fuel consumption and pollution.
Aluminum Roof Cost
The total cost to install aluminum roofing varies, but you can expect to spend more upfront than you would for shingles. However, you’ll pay less over time because aluminum rarely needs to be replaced. It could potentially last for 40 or 50 years.
You can also factor in the value it adds to your home. Your resale value will go up and advertising the benefits of your aluminum roof will wow all your potential buyers, making it well worth the investment. The roof will be one less thing a prospective buyer has to worry about repairing.
Aluminum Roofing Maintenance
The maintenance for an aluminum roof is the same as all other metal roofs. You shouldn’t let branches rub against it, be sure to clean off dirt and debris, make sure the gutters are clear, and avoid letting different types of metal touch it. These can all impact the lifespan of your roof.
It’s also important to make sure people don’t walk on the roof too often. While it’s necessary if there are repairs that need to be done, it shouldn’t happen any other time. While aluminum is durable, it is softer than other metals and can be susceptible to dents.
For these reasons and more, aluminum roofing adds tremendous value to your home or business. If you are looking for a local aluminum roofing company, contact Kirkness Roofing Inc.. We can provide you with all the details on aluminum roofs as well as how the benefits might impact you. We can inspect your current roof, provide a free estimate, and do the installation at an affordable cost.

Kirkness Roofing just replaced my roof — house, detached garage, and shed — and I couldn't be happier. I had wind damage twice over the winter and Jerome came out within hours both times to patch things up until it was warm enough … More for a full replacement. That kind of response is hard to find.
Jerome is honest, trustworthy, and just an all around great guy. The entire company is super professional with top notch customer service, and they use quality materials too. Be prepared to have extreme professionalism and not some fly-by-night roofer who is quick to collect payment and then vanishes.
The crew knocked out all three structures in 8 hours. Seriously impressive. What a great crew!
You will absolutely love Jerome!
See pictures of Jerome tarping my roof during the second wind event, the crew replacing my roof, and the finished product.
Highly recommend Kirkness Roofing — you won't regret it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ -
I hired Kirkness Roofing about 5 years ago to roof my house. I called several companies and was put off by some or their prices and how they explained their process, didn't hold up to Kirkness. They did the work in a timely manner, … More at a reasonable cost and cleaned up all the nails and any trash at the end.
I recently had a tree blow over, landing on my roof and breaking my skylight. Wind and debris were blowing through my bathroom. I called Kirkness and they came out to my house within a couple hours to seal things up. Super nice guys!
Jerome came out to give me an estimate on the repair. He was thorough, knowledgeable, patient and very up front about what they could get for a replacement, the cost and when the job would be finished.
Andy and his crew have always been responsive, patient, thorough and have done a great job at a good price. They are extremely trustworthy and get the job done right. -
Jerome made our roof repair an easy process. Kirkness really looks out for its clients. Roof installation is perfect and communication with the staff is excellent. I would recommend Kirkness for any roofing needs in the future 100%.

This is an outstanding company!
This is what I experienced: honesty,
fairness, excellent communication and quality workmanship. Co-owner Andy negotiated tirelessly with my insurance company to insure that they honored my claim for hail … More damage. He is the reason that I now have new roofs on my residence and outbuildings. Thank you Andy and the entire Kirkness Roofing staff! -
We recently moved into a new home and found out the shingles used on the roof made us eligible for a discount on our homeowner’s insurance. Having not worked with any local roofing companies before, we did a google search and chose Kirkness … More Roofing because of the plethora of good reviews. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. It was quickly evident why there were so many glowing testimonials! Jerome, in particular, was a standout. His professionalism and expertise shone through. Not only did he help us complete our certification, he checked in a day later to make sure the insurance company had all they needed. Needless to say, we will be using Kirkness for all of our future roofing needs.

A friend recommended Kirkness Roofing… I spoke with Carter on the phone who is so helpful and approachable and set up a inspection date… Jerome was the inspector to come to my home… He was excellent in keeping communication, up-to-date … More and current. Jerome is extremely knowledgeable and shares detailed information about the condition of my roofs after a severe wind storm. I felt Jerome was very thorough in his inspection and explaining my issues and options. I have never left a review before, but I felt very honored and excited to leave this review. Kirkness Roofing will be a permanent fixture in my contacts… If ever in doubt…Let Kirkness Roofing check it out!

I was concerned about the condition of my siding and roof and Jerome did a thorough inspection, took photos, and advised me on next steps. I appreciated his low-pressure, honest approach (not trying to sell me a whole new house!) and would … More trust Kirkness to handle my repairs when needed.
-
Jerome was kind enough to come to my house and inspect my roof after one of recent storms. Needless to say I was holding my breath wondering what damage he would find. Great news, no damage or repairs were needed. Jerome sent me a very … More detailed report with pictures of my roof for me to review after his inspection.
I highly recommend Kirkness Roofing for your roofing needs. They are trustworthy, kind, and reliable.
Thanks, Jerome and Kirkness Roofing!
