What is a Standing Seam Roof?

A Standing Seam roof is a metal roof where the raised seams are typically joined mechanically or with an integrated locking system, creating a visually appealing and durable roofing system.

Is Standing Seam more expensive?

While Standing Seam Roofs are more expensive upfront (due to cost of materials and skilled labor) than other lower value roofing systems, they require minimal maintenance over a much longer life span, providing abundant savings long-term.

Are Standing Seam roofs noisy?

They can be noisier when installed without proper underlayment.

Are Standing Seam Roofs Energy Efficient?

Yes, in some cases, combining reflective underlayment with thick-gauge steel and a possible roofing system underneath creates a double barrier.

Can Standing Seam Roofs withstand wind & hail?
