“Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of intelligent effort.” — John Ruskin

That quote sums up how we feel about roofs. Especially metal ones.

At Westbank Roofing, we’ve been protecting homes across Southeast Louisiana for over 50 years. And if there’s one thing we’ve learned it’s that when it comes to roofing materials, smart homeowners look beyond aesthetics. They want durability, energy savings, and long-term value. That’s where metal roofing shines.

It Lasts and Lasts

Let’s start with the obvious: metal roofs are built to last. While a traditional asphalt roof might give you 15 to 20 years (on a good day), a properly installed metal roof can stretch that to 40–70 years. That’s not a typo. With minimal maintenance, you might never have to replace it in your lifetime.

And here in Louisiana? Where storms roll in like clockwork? That’s peace of mind worth paying for.

Storm Tough. Hurricane Ready.

Metal roofs don’t mess around. They’re engineered to resist wind gusts up to 140 mph, which is ideal for Gulf Coast weather. Hail, heavy rain, blazing sun bring it on. Our metal roofs stand up to the harshest conditions nature throws your way.

Westbank Roofing even applies elastomeric coatings to help prevent corrosion and extend the roof’s life span. So when we say roof durability, we mean business.

Energy Efficiency That Pays You Back

Here’s a game-changer: metal roofing can cut your cooling costs by 10–25%. How? The surface reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it. Think of it like sunglasses for your house—except your AC gets to work a little less.

That means lower energy bills and a more comfortable home year-round. And yes, it’s eco-friendly too. Most metal roofs are made from recycled materials and are 100% recyclable when it’s finally time to replace them (in like, 2075).

Versatile Styles, Real Curb Appeal

Don’t picture a rusty old tin roof. Today’s metal roofing options are sleek, stylish, and come in an impressive variety of finishes from standing seam panels to corrugated steel and even Arpanel systems. Whether your home is modern, colonial, or classic New Orleans-style, there’s a metal roof design that fits beautifully.

And when installed by a certified contractor like Westbank Roofing, it’s not just a roof it’s a serious curb appeal upgrade.

Fewer Repairs, More Reliability

Metal roofs don’t warp, crack, or suffer the granule loss common in shingles. That means less maintenance, fewer repairs, and lower lifetime costs.

Got an existing metal roof with a small issue? We handle metal roof repairs and panel replacements, applying coatings that protect against UV damage and water infiltration.

Let us take the stress off your plate.

Insurance Discounts? Yes, Please.

Here’s a little-known perk: many insurance companies offer discounts for homes with metal roofing. Why? Simple less risk of damage equals lower liability for them.

We’ve helped plenty of New Orleans homeowners get those policy perks just by upgrading their roof.

A Smart Investment for Your Wallet and Your Family

Sure, metal roofing has a higher upfront cost than basic shingles. But it’s an investment that pays you back every year in energy savings, fewer repairs, and longer lifespan. Add resale value and storm protection, and you’ve got a roofing solution that’s hard to beat.
