Why Metal Roofing Is Growing in Popularity Across Asheville and Western North Carolina
Roof Repair Services
Flat roofing systems are commonly used on commercial buildings, apartment complexes, and some modern residential homes. One of the most popular flat roofing materials today is TPO roofing.
At John McClung Roofing, we provide flat roof installation, repair, and replacement services for commercial and residential properties throughout Asheville and Western North Carolina.
What Is TPO Roofing?
TPO stands for Thermoplastic Polyolefin. It is a single-ply roofing membrane commonly used on flat and low-slope roofs.
TPO roofing has become popular because it combines durability, energy efficiency, and affordability.
Benefits of TPO Roofing
Energy Efficient
TPO roofing membranes are designed to reflect sunlight and reduce heat absorption, helping improve energy efficiency.
Durable and Weather Resistant
TPO roofs are resistant to UV exposure, punctures, tears, and many weather-related issues.
Cost Effective
Compared to some commercial roofing systems, TPO often provides an excellent balance between performance and affordability.
Low Maintenance
When properly installed and maintained, TPO roofing systems can provide reliable long-term protection with relatively low maintenance needs.
Replacement Options for Flat and Low-sloped Roofs
Flat roofs require specialized knowledge and installation techniques. Improper drainage or installation issues can quickly lead to leaks and water pooling.
At John McClung Roofing, we provide:
- TPO roof installation
- Flat roof replacement

Metal Roofing
Why Homeowners Choose Metal Roofing
Metal roofing offers several major advantages over traditional roofing materials.
Long Lifespan
One of the biggest reasons homeowners choose metal roofing is longevity. A properly installed metal roof can last 40–70 years depending on the material and maintenance. Compared to traditional asphalt shingles, metal roofing often lasts significantly longer.
Excellent Protection Against Mountain Weather
Western North Carolina experiences everything from heavy rain and hail to strong winds, snow, ice, and falling branches. Metal roofs are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions and can provide superior protection during severe storms.
Energy Efficiency
Metal roofs are highly reflective, reflecting approximately 25–67% of the sun’s rays depending on the product and finish. Nearly all painted metal roofing systems are Energy Star rated, helping improve energy efficiency and reduce heat absorption during warmer months in Western North Carolina.
Long-Term Serviceability
Like any roofing system, metal roofs still require maintenance and periodic servicing. Exposed fasteners need attention every 5–10 years to help ensure long-term performance and weather resistance. Proper installation and ongoing maintenance are important for maximizing the lifespan of a metal roof.
Metal Roofing Options We Offer
At John McClung Roofing, we help customers choose the right metal roofing solution for their home, style, and budget.
Some popular options include:
- Standing seam metal roofing (with hidden fasteners)
- Tuff Rib metal roofing (exposed fasteners)
We proudly work with trusted manufacturers and maintain strong relationships with local suppliers and manufacturers to ensure our customers receive quality materials backed by dependable support and service.
Is Metal Roofing Worth the Investment?
While metal roofing may cost more upfront than traditional shingles, many homeowners appreciate the long lifespan, durability, and energy efficiency metal roofs can provide. The right roofing system ultimately depends on your home, goals, style preferences, and budget.
Additionally, metal roofing can increase curb appeal and potentially improve property value.
Choosing the Right Asheville Metal Roofing Contractor
Proper installation matters just as much as the materials themselves. An improperly installed metal roof can lead to leaks, fastener problems, and costly repairs.
