As a result of the Stimulus Package signed in February of 2009, homeowners who make energy efficient updates to their home - the installation of a painted or coated Energy Star® labeled metal roof included - between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010 may be eligible for a tax credit worth 30% of the installation costs (materials only) up to $1,500 per home over the two-year period.

Fill out IRS Form 5965 when filing your taxes for 2009 and/or 2010.

Homes upgraded with quality metal roofing typically see costs recouped at more than three quarters of the job cost!

You might even qualify for a discount of up to 35% on your homeowners insurance!
