Just a few questions for Massey,
Will an insurance company or the manufacture cover hail damage on a metal roofs?
A guy I worked with his insurance companies wouldn't. Will the manufacture cover them against hail damage for 50 years?

Will a home burn faster with a metal roof? A house about 2 miles away burnt like a book of matches. I first thought it was a double wide trailer the way it went up, it wasn't. Good news, after the fire, the metal roof looked good. Metal trapped the heat inside, house was a total loss. All the fire department could do is spray water through the widows.

Another neighbor has tarps over his metal roof. Guess his fasteners came loose or better yet someone didn't know how to install it properly, used the wrong fasteners. My youngest sister and husband owns a very large pole barn used as boat storage near a lake in northern Indiana. They replaced all the fasteners, still had a problem. Finally put new purlins over old metal and installed a new metal roof over the old one. The longer the metal, the more it contracts and expands, the more you will have fastener failure.

Does it sound like you are inside a steel drum when it raining? My sister's house did. I couldn't sleep.


There are many barns in the country, rusty looks good on the roofs. Some old barns have missing metal.

If you ever add on to your place, good luck getting the new metal to match your 20 year old metal.

Do HMO's ban the use of metal? I know a guy who put a pole barn in his backyard. HMO took him to court. He had to tear it down. Not everyone is a fan of metal.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
