The combination needs to work well together and be complementary to the style of the home.

Without a picture of your home, it’s hard to know.

Sure, why not?

This is a picture of the house. Our adult children think it’s too traditional to have a metal roof. Thoughts?

I think there are many metal roofs on traditional homes for the simple fact they last forever really and where huge snowfalls are the norm they function great too. Get some samples of choices in the style of the roofing. and the color of course .

Metal roofs were often seen on very traditional homes and in climates with lots of snow. I grew up in Quebec and quiant/traditional always comes to mind.

Metal though is being used on all types of styles and it’s the home itself vs the metal roof that will dictate the overall feel.

If you haven’t already, look into the pro’s and con’s which I think might end up being key in your decision.

Thank you Maureen!!
