Residential › Metal Roofing
Steel and copper residential roofing products that look as good as they perform.
Many options available
Standing Seam Metal Roofs
Standing seam metal roofs are a versatile choice for full coverage or as an accent. Their customizable seam spacing and curved panel options make them ideal for various architectural features.
- Available in many choices of materials, bare galvanized steel, pre-finished galvanized steel, galvalume, zinc, and copper
- Spacing on the standing seams can range from 10” to 20” (or more), depending on your specific project requirements. The most common panel width is 14.25” with 7/8” standings.
- Metal roofing is an Energy Star-rated material designed for superior reflectivity and emissivity. This means it helps reduce cooling costs in the summer by reflecting more sunlight and retaining less heat.
- Can be installed curved for eyebrow roofs or canopies.
- One thing to keep in mind is that standing seam roofs are prone to ice and snow slides, so snow retention around walkways and doorways should be considered.
- Our steel roofing is hail impact rated Class 4, UL 2218.
Flat Seam Roofs
Flat seam metal roofs are perfect for low-pitched applications, and use soldered seams for a watertight finish. Commonly crafted from galvanized steel, copper, or Freedom Gray™, these roofs are reliably durable. Copper and Freedom Gray can last a lifetime, and galvanized steel offers around 20 years of performance.
- Excellent for challenging roof areas.
- Material comes in 18” x 24” panels.
