Metal roofs have been used in industry for over a century. Barns, warehouses, and factories have always benefited from the durability and longevity of metal roofs.
But it’s only in recent decades that words like “elegance” and sophistication have begun to appear in the evaluation of metal roofs.
This is because previous metal roofs (standing seam and corrugated metal) lacked the beautiful appearance and versatility that residential homes demand.
Industrial durability and architectural aesthetics came together when stone-coated metal roofs came along. Homeowners can benefit from the industrial strength of metal without sacrificing aesthetics.
Since the advent of stone-coated steel roofing, metal roofing has quickly become the second most popular roofing material in Western and African countries.
Although homeowner demand for metal roofs has increased each year, homeowners associations in some areas still consider metal roofs to be too industrial.
The good news is that it is very easy to convince your local HOA to approve stone-coated metal roofing. This is thanks to its rich appearance.
- JINHU Metal Shake: A metal roof that looks like a Wood shake.
- JINHU Metal Shingle: A metal roof that looks like asphalt shingles.
- JINHU Metal Slate: A metal roof that looks like slate.
- JINHU Metal Spanish: Metal roofing that looks like terracotta tiles.
Why Some Homeowners Associations Ban Metal Roofs
Mainly because HOA wants to maintain the unity of the traditional architectural style of the community. The industrial look of a common metal roof fails to meet the community’s design standards.
The industrial-style metal roof is very visible and destroys the overall style of the community. In classic Mediterranean neighborhoods, for example, the roof design is a key part of the overall aesthetic. Industrial metal roofs cannot meet the community style.
You can easily get HOA approval just by contacting us for samples and catalogs.
