The main advantage of metal shingles - a high resistance to temperature changes, moreover, it is not afraid of fire.Installing it can be, without having to worry about the weather, in the dead of winter or the unbearable heat, the quality of the roof of that did not hurt.

Another important advantage - very high strength of the material.Thanks to all its characteristics, a metal easily won the roofing market in Russia, where conditions with strong winds or extreme temperature changes does not harm the material.
