Standing Seam Metal Roofing

A standing seam roof is constructed of interlocking panels running vertically from the top of the roof to the eave. The interlocking seam where two panels join together is raised above the roof’s flat surface, allowing water to run off without seeping between panels. Standing Seam Metal Roofing is increasing in popularity every year due to its unmatched durability and investment value.

Single-Ply Membrane

As the name implies, single-ply systems utilize a single layer of high-tech roofing material to cover your roof. Materials used include:

EPDM – an elastomeric rubber roofing membrane.
PVC – an energy-efficient, fiber-reinforced, lightweight roofing membrane.
TPO – a high-quality, reinforced membrane with superior tear strength and stability.

Your membrane will be attached in one of three ways:

Fully Adhered System – An adhesive that firmly secures the membrane to the substrate.
Mechanically Attached System – special fastening plates are placed in various patterns based on building height, geographic locale, deck type, and building usage.
Ballasted System – loose gravel or interlocking pavers keep the membrane in place.

We work with the following manufacturers for single-ply roofing projects.
