Examining the Benefits of Standing Seam Metal Roofs

Commercial Metal Roofs

Everybody knows the value of a roof during inclement weather, but there are so many more reasons why investing in a commercial metal roof is essential. Quality roofs certainly add value to commercial property, especially if the proper choice is made. There are various kinds of commercial roofing systems, and decisions must be made depending on the structure and the climate to get the perfect match. Standing seal metal systems, for instance, stand up well to both hot and cold temperatures and have many other benefits when applied to a pitched roof. At Eagle Rivet Roofing, we understand your needs, and we know the value of installing standing seam metal roofing systems.

They Are Durable

A standing seal roofing system can easily last for 50 years if it’s installed properly and maintained. Standing seam systems are thicker than corrugated sheet metal panels, so piercing is low. They are able to endure temperature extremes and high winds, which means that you can have one less thing to worry about.

They Look Great

Another difference between a standing seal and corrugated is in the finished appearance. Both are effective, but standing seal is more attractive. Each section is connected to the next by prominent spines that run the length of the roof’s pitch.

They Are Energy Efficient

Standing seam roofs reflect the sun’s powerful UV rays, rather than absorbing them the way that, say, an asphalt roof cannot. This means lower air-conditioning bills in the warm seasons! Along with tile roofing, metal roofing is widely considered the best at diminishing the harmful effects of the sun’s rays. Not only will your building be protected by the sun’s UV rays, but it will also stay cooler for longer on the inside.

They Are Weather-Tight 

Metal roofs also impress in cold climates because they are built to form a barrier that blocks heat loss. Because the metal roof remains a consistent temperature throughout, it prevents ice dams and any other damage that comes from a leaking roof. Snow will more easily slide off of the roof, too, which is better than having all of that heavy moisture weighing down the structure and looking for leaks.
