Why Cassopolis homeowners go metal
30 finished roofs in Cassopolis since 2009. Not the biggest number on this site, but every one is pinned on the map and you are welcome to go look at them. Most people who call us here are not shopping for a roof, they are replacing one for the second or third time and have decided they are done doing it. That is the honest reason metal wins in this part of Michiana. The colors that go on most often around Cassopolis are Burnished Slate, Coal Black and Koko Brown.
About 67 out of every 100 roofs we have done in Cassopolis are exposed fastener, with the rest concealed. That is a normal split for a town with a mix of houses and outbuildings, and it means we have run both systems here enough to tell you which one your roof actually wants.
Lake effect is the thing that separates a Cassopolis roof from one an hour inland. Wet snow that sits, then melts, then refreezes at the eave is what kills asphalt here, and it is exactly what a standing seam roof with no exposed fasteners does not care about.
We fabricate every panel at our shop on US 33 in Goshen, so panels come cut to your roof rather than to a stock length. Fewer seams, fewer places for water to think about getting in.
