Justin, came out a surveyed the roof with his drone. I was amazed at the amount of detail he was able to capture with it. His report is though and detailed, found very minor items needing attention. I have ask him for a quote to for the resealing around the vent pipes.
Example home with a stone-coated steel roof
Each panel is a sheet of steel with crushed stone bonded to the top. The steel gives it strength. The stone gives it color and texture, so from the street it reads as shake, tile or a thick shingle.
It carries the top hail rating, Class 4, and the top fire rating, Class A. It is rated for 140 mph wind. The maker rates it to last 50 years.
It costs more than shingles up front. It is for people who plan to stay in the house and do not want to do this again.

Good to know
- Top hail rating: Class 4
- Top fire rating: Class A
- Rated for 140 mph wind
- The maker rates it for 50 years
- A foam pad under every panel; the maker says it is as quiet as shingles
- It does not look like a metal roof
It makes sense if
- You plan to stay in the house
- You love the look of shake or tile but not the upkeep
- Hail has cost you a roof before
- You want to ask your agent what a Class 4 roof does to your premium

Straight answers
Questions people ask
How much does a stone-coated steel roof cost?
More than shingles up front. The number depends on the size and shape of your roof, so we price each house on its own, in writing.
Is it loud when it rains?
There is a foam pad under every panel, and the maker says it is as quiet as a shingle roof.
What does the 50 years mean?
The maker backs the panels with a 50-year limited warranty. It covers the panels and it is prorated, which means the coverage steps down over time. Ask us for the full terms before you decide.
Will it change my insurance bill?
Ask your agent what a Class 4 roof does to your premium. Your policy and your insurance company decide that.
