We are deciding between a metal roof and a composite roof for a new build. Is there any significant impact on cell phone service with a metal roof?

Owner of a rental with a metal roof checking in. Never ran into any problems with it, and haven't gotten any complaints about bad signal either. On a related topic, after installing a radiant barrier in a house we used to live in our signal was also unaffected.

Most likely the composite would use a foil radiant barrier, so the effect would be similar to the metal roof.

In summary, both will block cell signals and thus which one you choose isn't important, unless you forego radiant barrier on the conventional roof.

I've seen reception issues with both metal roofs and using tech shield decking.
