Galvalume coated metal standing seam roofs have been shown to be able to last up to 60 years. Many studies have been undertaken that prove that these metal roofs are long lasting in many differing climates.
The studies that have been conducted have found that there are certain areas of the roof that must be maintained in order for the roof to continue to perform. Fasteners, pipe flashing, gutters and downspouts, etc. must be maintained and replaced at varying times. Most components can last 20-30 years if properly installed.
For the metal roof to achieve the maximum longevity possible, it must be properly designed and installed. The design and installation should take into account the climate in the area and the slope of the roof. The roof installation and design should be conducted by professional familiar with metal roofing.
