Think Metal Roofs Are Too Expensive? New Cost Analysis Proves Otherwise

MOORE, Okla. - April 18, 2025 - PRLog -- Triple Diamond Construction, a leading roofing company in Oklahoma City, is helping homeowners break down the true cost of metal roofing in a new blog post that's challenging long-held assumptions.

Many homeowners assume metal roofing is automatically too expensive—but the new analysis from Triple Diamond Construction reveals that when it comes to value, durability, and long-term savings, metal roofs may actually be the smarter investment.

"Metal roofs come with a higher upfront price tag, sure," said Greg Derr, owner of Triple Diamond Construction. "But what most people don't realize is how much longer they last, how well they hold up against storm damage, and how much you can save on insurance premiums and future repairs."

In the blog post, titled "Is a Metal Roof More Expensive? Cost Comparison vs. Shingles", the Triple Diamond team walks readers through:

• The average cost differences between architectural shingles and standing seam metal roofs
  
  
• Lifespan comparisons—30 years for shingles vs. 40–70 years for metal
  
  
• Storm resistance ratings, including impact resistance and wind ratings
  
  
• Maintenance needs and hidden costs over time
  
  
• Energy efficiency and utility bill savings
  
  

The article also breaks down which type of homeowner is best suited for a metal roof versus shingles, depending on budget, longevity goals, and how long they plan to stay in the home.

"With 2-inch hail already hitting parts of Oklahoma City in late March, storm season is off to an early start," said Derr. "Now's the time for homeowners to consider upgrading to a roof that's built to withstand what's coming."

Triple Diamond's goal is to give homeowners honest, practical guidance—not a sales pitch. That's why their latest blog is packed with transparent pricing comparisons and real-world advice specific to Oklahoma's climate.
