ALUMINUM ROOFERS

Aluminum Roofing Specialists

Aluminum Roofing Specialists Billings, MT

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.

    During a recent windstorm, part of our roof cap tore off exposing the open area which could allow the environment to gain entry. We contacted our insurance agent and a claim process was initiated. Expecting to be under warranty from the … More prior installer, they came out and said the entire roof needed to be repaired. We again contacted our insurance agent as this seemed to be pretty extreme.
    I was then speaking with a friend, and he said maybe get a second opinion to verify the findings of the previous install company. I did and Kirkness was suggested by a couple of people.
    Andrew and Zach came out and looked over the roof. There was moderate damage except for the area of wind damage. They did not think a full replacement was the best path to take and suggested repairing the small damage area thus saving us the cost of our deductible.
    They returned the following day, made the repair and you can't tell there was any damage. I missed them before they left and when we called Andrew for costs, he said don't worry about it, materials were minimal, and the 40 minutes was a way of saying thanks for calling us to provide service.
    This will go a long way if and when I need further assistance with any of my roofing needs. Truly service excellence demonstrated by Andrew, Zach and Kirkness roofing.

    When I found a leak in my attic, I researched many local roofers but I’m glad I called Kirkness. They gave me guidance until snow cleared from my roof then Rob went up and resealed a spot he identified as the problem. Rob was honest, quick, … More and definitely earned a customer for life. I highly recommend Kirkness.

    Kirkness has been my roofer of choice for over a decade. They work with your insurer, provide detailed, itemized estimates and are a locally owned business here in Billings and are invested in doing professional, quality work. They can … More handle jobs that require customized fabrication and leave your jobsite absolutely nail-free and tidy. In 2010, after the tornado, when the city was full of out-of-state roofers of all stripes, we knew that relying on local was best and best for Billings. From the office staff to the roof crews, Kirkness is definitely 5 Stars! I wholeheartedly tell you that you're going to be happy with their work and their integrity.

    Top notch service and delivery. My roof was leaking in several spots and we needed a new one before the winter. It was a small project on a double wide trailer but instead of pushing us off like most other roofing companies, these guys … More made us a priority and got the roof done before the snow fell. Good job guys!

    I called Kirkness after realizing our roof was leaking when it rained, into the house. I've never had to deal with such an issue, and am not well educated on roofing. Rob came out on time, which was a HUGE help because I only had limited … More time due to my work schedule to meet with someone at the home. He was kind, considerate, educational and even went the extra mile to caulk/seal some areas of our roof that had flexed due to the age of the home, to see if that would stop the leaking at no charge. I was skeptical, but it stopped the leak and this was after a previous company came out and tried to convince us to submit an insurance claim and replace the roof.
    Rob saved us time, money, and from the fear of having a really awful spring. It's rained a few times since and not a drop. Thank you Kirkness for being there quickly and not taking advantage! We will definitely be coming back in the future!

    Rob Horton was simply outstanding. Very personable and knowledgeable. Had a small leak around the flashing on my chimney that was coming in the house. Probably could have sealed it myself but at my age the wife, my best friend, does … More not want me on the roof.
    Well Rob climbed up and checked my roof saying it was in good shape and sealed off the chimney and another area on the back of the house.
    Then followed up after the last rain to check if it was sealed good.
    I ever need more roofing help I will only call Kirkness and Rob Horton.
    Thanks again
