Roofing Systems

Standing seam metal roofing refers to long, narrow metal panels that are interlocked together at their edges (using clips and fasteners that are concealed beneath the surface) to form a seam, oriented from the gutter to the ridge of the roof.

With a sleek look and a modern flair, a standing seam metal roof offers that rare combination of function & form. Standing seam roofing looks fantastic, lasts a very long time, and provides superior protection against extreme weather conditions.

This type of roofing system is widely used because of the following features:

This type of roofing system with its wide variety of materials, sizes, colours and finishes available, is specifically designed to match the size of the roof structure and complement the architectural style of any building.
With concealed fasteners and due to being waterproof and highly resistant to corrosion, most standing seam metal roofs can last between 40 to 70+ years with little maintenance.
Current Metal Roofs not only have between 25-95% recycled metal in its content depending on the specific material used, but can also be fully recycled at the end of their useful life as a roof. They also tend to reflect solar radiation reducing cooling costs.

Equally suitable for both steep-sloped and low-sloped roofs on old or new residential and commercial buildings, standing seam metal roofing can provide energy efficiency, versatility, high levels of protection from the elements and precise fit for each unique roof section.

However, proper installation is needed to get the most out of your metal roofing and avoid unnecessary future costly repairs.

That’s why we use state-of-the-art metal-forming equipment and form the panels on-site ensuring a fully customised fit. We also only supply and fit the highest-quality metal roofing products available on the market including:
