Standing Seam
When most homeowners begin thinking about a metal roof, all they can envision are the roofs they have seen on barns and commercial buildings. Those types of metal roofs typically have panels that run vertically up the roof. These types of metal panel roofs are called “Standing Seam” because their prominent visual feature is the raised interlocking seam which joins one panel to the next. Often called “commercial roofing,” or “agricultural panel roofing,” or even “barn roofing,” these products do provide the great protection and durability for which metal is known.
One important factor to consider when choosing a metal roof is the type of seam. Standing seams are one of the most popular options for metal roofs, as they provide superior protection against leaks and wind damage. There are several benefits to choosing a standing seam metal roof. First, the seams are raised up off the roof, making them less likely to be damaged by wind or debris. Second, the seams are double-locked, meaning that they are much less likely to leak than other types of metal roofs. Finally, standing seams can be installed over nearly any type of roofing material, making them a versatile option for both new construction and reroofing projects.
