Types of Metal Roofs We Install

Corrugated Metal Roofing

Corrugated metal roof is galvanized steel that is rolled into a pattern. The two most popular styles of corrugated metal are U-panel and R-panel. Although patterns can vary, corrugated metal is stacked like tile. The corrugation runs perpendicular to the grooves in the steel. This process highlights the strength inherent in galvanized steel.

Corrugated metal is a cost-effective choice since it’s prefabricated. It is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, durable, and easily transported. Corrugated metal directs water off of your roof, making it an excellent solution for your building.

PBR

PBR, short for purlin bearing R panel, is a high-quality, versatile metal roof panel. The panels have a larger overlap section that completely overlaps the next panel. This creates more metal-to-metal contact, which yields a stronger connection and more weather-tight metal roof panels. Ideal for low-slope applications, PBR offers high quality with ease of installation.

PBR metal panels are low-maintenance and durable compared to conventional roofing. The PBR panel profile exemplifies extra protection against the elements by including a purlin-bearing leg that overlaps between panels, sealing out moisture and wind. These panels can be installed either on a solid substrate or open framing such as metal purlins or wood support beams.

Standing-Seam Metal Roofing

Standing seam metal roofing comes in a variety of seam types: snap-lock, mechanical lock, and batten panel. Each one interlocks differently and provides different protection. Depending on your climate, you can choose a specific seam type to protect your building.

Because of the interlocking panels, the seams stand up higher than the roof itself. The standing seam is an artistic feature that makes standing seam metal roofs appealing and also protects the fasteners. Standing-seam metal roofs offer a wide range of colors, lengths, widths, thicknesses, and seam types. Of course, they are durable and cost-effective.

Tuff Rib Roofing

Tuff Rib panel is an economical, structural, light gauge through-fastener roof and wall panel that is an excellent choice for commercial, industrial, and agricultural applications. Manufactured with high tensile steel to allow for greater load capability, Tuff Rib is a jack-of-all-trades for metal roofing, siding, and modern accents. Originally designed for traditional and agricultural buildings, this ribbed steel roof panel is built to last and withstands wind, hail, snow, and rain.

The Advantages of Metal Roofing

Metal roofing offers numerous benefits that make it a top choice for homeowners. From superior durability to energy efficiency, here are some key advantages:

• Durability: Metal roofs can endure severe weather conditions, such as hail and high winds, without sustaining damage.
• Energy Efficiency: Thanks to their reflective properties, metal roofs can cut cooling costs by up to 20% by reducing heat absorption.
• Eco-Friendliness: Often crafted from recycled materials, metal roofs are also recyclable at the end of their lifespan, making them an environmentally friendly choice.
