Here's another in our Q&A series. Remember, if you have a burning roofing question, just ask in our comments section and we'll write a blog post with your question and our answer!

**Q. I'm probably going to need a new roof before next winter. It's not even August now, but how much time do I really have before I need to make a decision?**

![coated steel shakes | Metal Roof Network](https://www.metalroofnet.com/hs-fs/file-16122916-jpg/images/coatedsteel2small.jpg)A. If you’re really intent on doing something before winter comes, you should probably move now. Winter may seem far off, **but anyone who** **knows what they’re doing is going to start getting busy really quickly. **And by beginning the re-roofing process now, you'll have plenty of time to research your options without weather-related pressure hurrying you along.

****Another critical consideration is pricing. Just about all product lines, including metal, have a lot of upward pressure on prices, **so the sooner you choose something, the better chance you’ll have at getting it at a good price. **Take advantage of the summer specials that many manufacturers and installers are offering, and get everything handled before the big fall rush, when prices are inevitably higher.

In fact, **we're offering a great, [limited-time deal](https://www.metalroofnet.com/coated-steel-tile-on-special-now/) on coated steel batten tile in a choice of two beautiful colors,** so if you've got your eye on a coated steel roof system, don't miss out!

If you're just starting to think about a new roof, do your homework first. **Download our FREE re-roofing booklet via the link below** and you'll get a thorough understanding of the performance, lifespan, cost, eco-friendliness, durability and other considerations of the most popular roofing materials on the market today. **Even the cheapest new roof is going to cost several thousand dollars, so do yourself a favor and begin with a little research now.**
