Durability, Longevity and Sustainability of Standing Seam Metal Roofing

Standing seam metal roofs have long been popular for their aesthetics and long-term performance characteristics, particularly their strength, durability and low maintenance costs.

Standing Seam Metal Roofs for Weatherproofing and Sustainability

Now with the concept of sustainability so important to the building community, metal roofs are being seen in a new light. Their high recycled content, total recyclability and energy efficiency allow “cool metal roofs” to play a pivotal role in meeting Energy Star and LEED requirements.

Standing Seam Metal Roofing for Longevity and Durability

Standing seam metal roofs are synonymous with strength and durability and are known to have a service life of 50 years and more. Consequently, the life cycle costs are substantially lower than conventional roofing materials, making a metal roof an extremely cost effective roofing and reliable solution for the harsh Maine climate.
