We know choosing the right roof is a big decision. This section is here to help you make the best one for your home, business, or build.

What are the advantages of metal over other types of roofing?
Prefinished metal roofing is offered in a broad palette of attractive colors with long-life coatings that resist the growth of moss, mildew, or fungus. Metal panels are lightweight, yet strong enough to withstand severe weather—snow easily slides off the roof. Finally, metal roofing lasts longer, conserves energy, and requires virtually no maintenance.
Since metal weighs only 1/3 as much as shingles, you can often attach metal panels without tearing off your existing shingle roof. This eliminates the cost and problems of disposing of the old shingles. The best way to do this is to attach 1” x 4” or 2” x 4” furring strips at 24” o/c (on center) parallel to the eave and ridge. Check local codes to determine if tearing off shingles is required in your area.
You may use either screws or nails, both of which should match the color of your roof. Screw fasteners are designed to go into the flat part of the panel, while nails MUST go into the high rib of the panel. Fasteners are typically spaced 24” o/c (on center).
Yes. Fan-fold foam insulation or foil-faced plastic bubble insulation are two types of insulation that can be used. By making your roof more energy efficient, you can save on utility costs.
It’s no noisier than the soothing patter you hear normally. The metal roof panels are installed over felt paper and plywood on the outside, with a layer of sound-deadening insulation and your drywall ceiling on the inside. These materials help mute the sound.
This could very well be the last roof you will ever put on your home, barn, shed, or hobby shop. Its lifespan can easily exceed 30 years. Corrosion-resistant substrates and durable finishes ensure long-term performance, minimal maintenance, and cost savings.
Metal roofing and siding can be easily installed using standard hand tools such as a screw gun, hammer, metal snips, caulk gun, pliers, chalk line, and tape measure. Cutting metal panels is best accomplished with an electric metal shear; however, panels may be easily cut with a circular saw with a metal-cutting abrasive blade. Standing seam roof systems require hand or mechanical seaming tools.
A rubber membrane underlayment is always a good idea as an additional barrier against water infiltration. You should always use one under a valley condition or any other detail that is likely to be difficult to seal. In a northern climate, a rubber underlayment is also recommended at the eave and up to at least 24” past the exterior wall to help prevent water from entering the roof due to ice damming. It should also be used on very low slopes and when the metal panels are not sealed at their side laps.
No, a metal roof will not make a building more susceptible to a lightning strike. Lightning will tend to strike the highest object in a given area, regardless of what that object is made of. A metal roof can actually be beneficial in the event of a lightning strike because it’s a non-combustible material.
No. Standard lead pencils or those made with graphite will accelerate the corrosion of the metal near the mark. You can use masking tape and mark on the tape to prevent corrosion, plus masking tape is easier to see.
