Rolled metal roofing is made from various metals, including steel, aluminum, copper, and zinc, which can be formed into large sheets or rolls. This method of roofing is particularly advantageous due to its lightweight nature and ease of installation. Unlike traditional roofing materials such as shingles, which can be heavy and complex to install, rolled metal roofing can be laid down quickly and requires fewer labor hours, resulting in savings on both time and costs for construction projects.
