Metal Sales offers metal roof panels that allow for a certain level of customization in fastener type, rib height, coverage, product series, and substrate material. No matter the look you desire for your roof, our wide selection of metal roofing options make any aesthetic appeal possible.
Exposed fastener metal roof panels are the material of choice for affordable roofing options on commercial, residential, and agricultural buildings. Color-matched panels are installed over existing shingle decks for a seamless look. These panels are the perfect solution for a durable, eco-friendly roofing option that favors cost and easy installation.
Concealed Fastener metal roof panels are an alternative that offers more durability and a sleek design. For aesthetic reasons, concealed fastener panels are more common in residential buildings. These panels are not only stronger, but the concealed design of the fasteners leads to less maintenance over the life of the roof.
Metal roofing offers a fairly long list of benefits. When compared to traditional single roofs, they are hands-down more durable. Metal roofs can last up to 50 or 60 years, while a shingle roof will need to be replaced in about half of that time. And when it is time to replace them, the metal panels are recyclable, which contributes less material to landfills.
Metal roofs are customizable in a wide selection of colors and materials range from minimalistic and cost-effective to sleek and modern. As the residential sector has adopted metal roofing for environmental reasons, newer decorative styles are becoming available as well.
Metal roofs are also more sustainable in other ways. As the cost of utilities continues to rise and we all try a little harder to lessen our impact on the environment, energy-efficient building materials become much more important. Depending on the region and personal habits, a metal roof on a residential home can decrease energy bills by up to 40%. Reflective metal roofing can reduce air temperatures in a building by an average of 12 degrees, lowering cooling costs.
The term ‘metal roof’ is a broad term. While some recycled panels may contain a combination of materials, there are essentially five metals that are commonly used for roofing. Some materials vary by region, based on environmental factors like the salty sea breeze in coastal states or the humidity and high temperatures in southern states.
Common metals for roofing include:
Aluminum is lightweight, durable, and non-corrosive. It is used widely across the US, and holds up especially well in coastal regions. Copper roofing is extremely durable and expensive. It is suitable for most environments but is not widely used due to the price. Tin is no longer used in modern metal roofing; however, the term has stuck around. Today, a tin roof refers to a steel roof.
Zinc is another metal that is extremely durable and known for lasting a long, long time. And just like copper, it develops a patina and gradually changes color over time. Despite their strength and long lifespan, materials like zinc and copper don’t catch on as a mainstream metal roofing option due to the color variances. For the most part, people prefer panels that they can control the color selection on with paint. And finally, steel is the most common metal roofing material. It is widely available from coast to coast in a variety of styles and finishes.
