Long-lasting metal roofs for commercial buildings, churches and homes: standing seam, R-panel and other profiles, installed and repaired.
Roof system
Metal Roofing explained
A metal roof is built from overlapping panels fastened to open framing or a solid deck. Standing seam panels hide their fasteners inside raised seams, while exposed-fastener panels such as R-panel are fastened through the face.
Metal sheds water and snow quickly, resists fire and handles high wind well when installed to the right specifications.

Questions
Metal FAQ
Is a metal roof noisy in the rain?
Over a solid deck with underlayment and insulation, a metal roof is about as quiet as other roof types.
Does metal attract lightning?
No. Metal roofs do not increase the chance of a lightning strike, and they are non-combustible.
Can hail damage a metal roof?
Large hail can dent panels. Many dents are cosmetic, but we check seams and fasteners for functional damage.
