Metal Roofing Types
Standing Seam
Built using metal panels and concealed fasteners, this roofing system has a high-strength, weather-tight design. This results in outstanding durability, especially in extreme weather. Roofing panels are secured to the roof deck using clamps rather than nails or screws, meaning there are no holes that could permit moisture to seep through. Covering the fasteners safeguards against premature failure.
R-Panel
This durable, low-maintenance roofing system consists of standard-sized metal panels with raised ribs. It’s secured using fasteners, which typically remain exposed after tightening. Key benefits include superior strength and weather resistance at an affordable price point.
