Rusty Corrugated Metal is a specially designed roofing and sheeting product that creates the old rusted tin look, but uses new manufactured steel. RCM is safe for the environment, made from recycled material, and has a very long lifespan.
As a design component from an architectural standpoint RCM is becoming the roofing of choice for homeowners looking for an “authentic” look for their homes. Structurally, RCM is lighter than most roofing materials and can easily be incorporated into either new or remodeled projects. For perspective, on average a RCM roof will last 2 to 3 times longer than an asphalt roof. You can reasonably expect your metal roof to last 40 to 60 years or more without the weather related problems other roofing materials may have. RCM is not susceptible to the cracking/warping of concrete tile roofs, the decomposition of asphalt roofs or replacement every 20 years or so that wood shingle or shake roofs require. Metal roofing is designed to withstand extreme weather like high winds, heavy snow, hail storms and even wildfires.
Recla Metals RCM is not only the best choice for you and your home, it is the best choice for the environment as well. ReclaMetals RCM is a minimum 50% recycled material. It is long lasting and at the end of its roofing life cycle it can be recycled once again. For remodeling projects RCM can be installed over existing roofing thereby keeping old materials from landfills.
