We’re a family-owned business serving homeowners in Bothell and throughout Western Washington, and we offer metal roofing systems from Malarkey that are engineered to be the final roofing solution you'll ever need. 

Why Should You Consider a New Roof? 

The chances are high that your current roof is asphalt shingle, and while shingle roofs provide reliable protection, they can develop a multitude of issues in the challenging weather conditions of Western Washington. If you’re noticing any of these common problems, it might be time to schedule a roofing inspection and consider a metal roof:   

• Granule loss – Over time, asphalt shingles can lose their granular coating, diminishing their effectiveness and aesthetic appeal.

• Cracking – Fluctuations in temperature can cause shingles to crack, leading to potential leaks and water damage.

• Curling – Shingles may curl from heat exposure and improper ventilation, reducing their ability to protect against the elements.

• Blow-offs – Poorly secured shingles can be prone to blowing off during extreme winds, exposing your home to the elements.

• Moss and algae growth – In damp environments, moss and algae can thrive on asphalt roofs, potentially causing moisture damage and wood rot.

The Unmatched Benefits of Our Metal Roofing 

The Malarkey metal roofing products offered by Green City Window Door & Siding offer several advantages over traditional materials like asphalt shingles or tiles. Metal roofing is celebrated for its exceptional weather protection, as it can withstand intense winds, heavy rain, and snow without compromise. Its longevity is unparalleled—it often lasts 50 years or more with minimal maintenance required. Unlike asphalt or tile roofs, metal roofs are not susceptible to cracking, curling, or general deterioration, so they’re a durable and cost-effective solution in the long run. 

Debunking Metal Roofing Myths 

Contrary to some misconceptions, metal roofing is not only attractive but also highly energy efficient. Today's metal roofs come in a variety of styles and colors, so they’re suitable for any architectural design, from traditional to contemporary. When it comes to energy efficiency, metal roofs reflect the sun’s rays rather than absorb them, which helps keep attics cooler and can reduce cooling costs and enhance a home’s overall thermal performance.

Metal Roofing FAQs 

If you have any questions for us before your metal roofing project in Western Washington, we’d be happy to answer them. However, in the meantime, feel free to check out these frequently asked questions we get about metal roofs from homeowners just like you:  

Is Metal Roofing Energy Efficient? 

Yes, metal roofing is known to be among the most energy-efficient roofing options, which is a big reason why they’ve continued to grow in popularity among homeowners over the years. These roofs reflect sunlight, which reduces heat absorption and can even lower your cooling costs by up to 25%. 

Are Metal Roofs Noisy When It Rains? 

It’s a fair question given the climate we live in, and while metal roofs can sometimes be noisy during heavy rainfall, it does depend on their installation. With solid sheathing, insulation, and attic space, the sound is largely muffled and comparable to how it sounds when rain falls on other roofing types. 

How Long Does a Metal Roof Last? 

Typically, metal roofs can last anywhere between 50 and 70 years, making them one of the best roofing options for homeowners looking to prioritize longevity. With proper installation and maintenance, these roofs tend to outlast asphalt shingle roofs by some margin. 

What Styles & Colors Are Available for Metal Roofing? 

There are plenty of intriguing style and color options when it comes to metal roofs, with a range or classic, earth, and bolder tones to choose from. There are also some types of metal roofs that come in matte, gloss, and textured finishes, and there is a wide array of style options to pick between depending on the contractor you’ve chosen to partner with. 

Is Metal Roofing More Expensive Than Asphalt Shingles? 

While metal roofs do tend to cost more than asphalt shingles up front, the lack of maintenance requirements and the longevity they provide do make them a better long-term investment for a lot of homeowners.
