Steel is one of two types of metal roofing (aluminum is the other). Steel is far less common as a roofing material than asphalt, wood or tile, but it has some distinct advantages. Perhaps the biggest perk is lifespan: A steel roof can last for generations.<\/p>\n
Steel roofing is available in a variety of designs. There are tiles, shingles, shakes or vertical panels. Many of the styles mimic popular roofing materials such as slate or wood shake. Most metal roofing comes pre-painted, which creates a nice aesthetic and also adds reflective qualities that reduce your energy bills.<\/p>\n

Steel roofing has a protective coating that protects it from rusting. There are two types of coatings: galvanized, made of 100 percent zinc, and galvalume, a mixture of zinc and aluminum. The galvalume coating offers more protection in most cases, but it is typically more expensive, too.<\/p>\n
Both galvanized and galvalume steel roofing are available in a variety of grades. Galvanized steel is available in G-40, G-60 and G-90, with higher numbers indicating better quality. For homes, most experts recommend G-90. Galvalume is available in AZ-50 or AZ-55, both of which are roughly equivalent to G-90.<\/p>\n
Finally, steel roofing comes in various gauges, or thicknesses. The higher the number, the thicker the roof. The most common gauges are 24 and 26.<\/p>\n
Steel roofing is a premium product, so it comes with a higher price tag than most other roofing materials. The price depends on a number of factors, including the grade, whether the roof is painted or unpainted, local labor rates, roof pitch and roof height.<\/p>\n
Steel shingles typically sell for about $2 to $6 per square foot<\/strong>, not including installation. Roofing materials are often sold by the square, or 100 square feet, so you\u2019ll see prices labeled $200 to $600 per square<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Including installation, the total cost for steel roofing is often $500 to $1,000<\/strong> per square. For a 1,500-square-foot roof, that works out to $7,500 to $15,000.<\/strong><\/p>\n
