A metal roof is worth it for most homeowners who plan to stay a long time: metal commonly lasts 40 to 70 years against a few decades for asphalt, and sheds snow readily. The trade-offs are a higher up-front cost, typically $20,000 to $70,000 on a Colorado Springs or Denver home in our cost guides, and the way insurers treat hail dents. The guides below cover cost by market, lifespan, hail and the main panel types.
