Commercial Sheet Metal Roofing
At Command Roofing, we offer sheet metal roofing solutions for both new roof installations and re-roofing
projects. Sheet metal roofing, often referred to as architectural metal roofing, involves the use of metal
panels or sheets as the primary roofing material for commercial and industrial buildings. This type of roofing
system is valued for its durability, versatility, and aesthetic appeal. It's commonly used in a wide range of
architectural designs due to its ability to blend functionality with aesthetics.
Types of Metal Used:
Sheet metal roofing can be made from various types of metal, each with its own characteristics and
advantages:
- Steel: Galvanized or Galvalume-coated steel is a common choice due to its strength,
corrosion resistance, and relatively affordable cost.
- Aluminum: Aluminum is lightweight, highly corrosion-resistant, and suitable for coastal
environments or areas with high humidity.
- Copper: Copper roofing offers a distinctive appearance that develops a natural patina over
time. It's known for its longevity and upscale aesthetic.
- Zinc: Zinc roofing is known for its durability, resistance to corrosion, and unique
blue-gray patina that develops over time.
- Tin: While less common today, tin roofing was historically used and is known for its
charming, weathered appearance.
Benefits of Sheet Metal Architectural Roofing:
- Durability: Sheet metal roofing systems are exceptionally durable and can have long
lifespans, often exceeding 50 years or more with proper maintenance. They can withstand harsh weather
conditions, including wind, rain, snow, and UV radiation.
- Low Maintenance: Metal roofing requires minimal maintenance. It doesn't crack, warp, or rot
like some other roofing materials. Periodic inspections and occasional cleaning are usually sufficient to
keep the roof in good condition.
- Weather Resistance: Metal roofing is highly resistant to fire, wind, hail, and other
environmental elements. It's often classified as a Class A fire-resistant material.
- Aesthetic Variety: Metal roofing is available in a wide range of styles, colors, finishes,
and profiles, allowing for creative architectural designs. It can replicate the appearance of traditional
materials like shingles, tiles, or slates.
- Energy Efficiency: Some metal roofing systems are designed to reflect sunlight and heat,
contributing to improved energy efficiency and potentially lowering cooling costs.
- Lightweight: Metal roofing is relatively lightweight compared to some other roofing
materials, which can be beneficial for the structural integrity of the building.
- Sustainability: Many metal roofing materials are recyclable, making them an environmentally
friendly choice. Their longevity also reduces the need for frequent replacements.
- Quick Installation: Metal roofing panels are often manufactured off-site and are easy to
install, potentially reducing labor time and associated costs.
- Versatility: Metal roofing can be adapted to various architectural styles and can be used
for both residential and commercial applications.
- Increased Property Value: Metal roofing's aesthetic appeal, durability, and potential
energy efficiency benefits can enhance a building's resale value.
- Resale Appeal: The perceived quality, durability, and modern look of metal roofing can
attract potential buyers or tenants to a commercial building.
- Reroofing Projects:
Durable Replacement: If you're considering reroofing an existing building, sheet metal roofing
can provide a long-lasting replacement solution. It can offer enhanced durability and longevity compared to
the
existing roofing materials.
