Standing Seam Metal Roof, PA

A Standing Seam Metal Roof is great for Pennsylvania homeowners looking to add to the curb appeal and weather resistance of their home’s roof. Standing Seam Roofs are not the tin corrugated roofs that were installed on barns decades ago. Standing Seam Roofing systems are aesthetically pleasing and engineered to last a lifetime.

Standing Seam Material

Standing Seam is Galvalume, cold-rolled steel with 55% aluminum and 45% zinc alloy. Here at Metal Roofing PA, we offer this combination of metals because it ensures a lack of rust or corrosion for the life of the product.

Standing Seam Panel Locking

In addition to the combination of aluminum and zinc alloy, we also provide two basic panel locking systems for your metal roof:

  • Architectural panels – Acts as Water-Shedding systems
  • Structural panels – Acts as Water-Tight systems

 

Both panel systems are installed by our expert roofing installers. Additionally, the S-2000 is the only water-tight snap-lock system on the market and the A-1300 is the only water-tight architectural panel on the market and is ideal for low sloping roof applications with installation on as little a slope as ½ inch per foot. We also offer an A-1000 snap lock panel for a more affordable install.
