Yes. In many cases, homeowners choose metal roofing when it is time for a full roof replacement because it gives them the chance to upgrade to a longer-lasting system. Before installation, the existing roof structure, decking, and ventilation should be assessed to make sure everything is ready for the new system. At Aucoin Roofing, we treat metal roofing as a full roof system, which means we look at the structure underneath as well as the finished steel roof above.
