Metal roofing on the rise

Metal roofing is one of the fastest growing segments in the industry. It is valued for its strength and longevity and hence favoured by insurers. Many find that they are prepared to pay a little more for metal roofing for the peace of mind it provides.

This roofing solution is endlessly versatile and can take on the look of other roofing options but with superior wind, impact and algae resistance. Metal roofing is also suitable for more choice than other options for colour.

It doesn’t require heavy equipment to install, either. The primary tools for installation are fairly basic and also fairly inexpensive. Roofing contractors will need just:

• Metal snips – a lightweight tool used to separate the metal panels and cut them to the right length.
• Impact driver – like a combination of a drill and a high-powered ratchet that delivers more power and torque than a screwdriver. Used to secure the metal panels to the roof sheathing.
• Hand seamer – used to make accurate, clean angle bends in the sheet metal. A strong and versatile tool for all for all kinds of metal detailing work.
