What’s different about Savannah

Savannah's coastal salt air, humidity, and historic-district review add maintenance and permitting considerations on top of moderate labor costs.

  • Humidity favors moisture- and mildew-resistant materials.
  • Metal roofing resists hail and high wind, a real plus in storm-prone states.

How the cost is built

Metal-roof cost is driven by panel type (corrugated and ribbed steel are cheaper; standing-seam, aluminum, copper, and zinc cost more), roof complexity, and gauge. Metal costs about twice as much as asphalt upfront but lasts 40–60 years, so its cost per year is often lower.
