Two Metal Roofing Systems.
Two Different Applications.
Metal roofing is not one single product. The system selected depends on appearance preference, structural design, and long-term performance expectations.
Classic Rib
Description
Panels are secured through the face of the metal using gasketed fasteners.
Common Applications
Commonly used on residential homes, detached garages, and agricultural structures.
Appearance
Visible fasteners aligned in rows across the panel surface.
Cost & Maintenance Considerations
Generally lower upfront cost. Fasteners require periodic inspection and replacement over time.
Exposed fastener metal roofing can be appropriate for residential homes, particularly when budget considerations are important or the roof design is relatively simple. These systems are commonly used on homes, garages, and outbuildings throughout our region. Because the fasteners penetrate the face of the panel, periodic inspection and maintenance are important to support long-term performance. During a roof evaluation, we review your roof structure, complexity, and long-term goals before recommending whether an exposed fastener or standing seam system is the better fit.
Exposed fastener metal roofs can be installed in as little as one day.
Exposed fastener metal roofs typically come with a 40 to 50 year warranty from the manufacturer plus Ameriway’s five year workmanship warranty. Ask for details.
Ameriway offers third party lending through Wisetack Financial allowing customers to stretch out payments for up to 10 years.
Standing Seam
Description
Panels interlock at raised seams, concealing fasteners beneath the surface. This allows for controlled expansion and contraction while maintaining a clean profile.
Common Applications
Often selected for residential homes and commercial buildings where long-term performance and appearance are priorities.
Appearance
Vertical panel lines with a smooth, modern profile. Fasteners are not visible on the surface.
Installation Considerations
Requires precise layout, proper clip attachment, and careful flashing details for proper installation.
Standing seam metal roofs are considerably more expensive than traditional shingle roofs. However, correctly installed they will most likely be the last roof the house will ever need. Standing seam metal roofs can last up to 100 years when properly maintained!
These type of roofs are quite complicated and require special tools and experienced crews to complete the job correctly. Standing seam metal roofs can take 2-10 days for proper installation.
Standing seam metal roofs typically come with a 40 to 50 year warranty from the manufacturer plus Ameriway’s five year workmanship warranty. Ask for details.
