Frequently Asked Questions
About Metal Roofing
A properly installed standing seam metal roof can easily last 50 years or more with minimal maintenance. The key is choosing the right system from the start and having it installed by experienced professionals. Standing seam roofs use concealed clips that allow the panels to expand and contract naturally with temperature changes, which means the fastening system stays secure and weathertight for decades. The panels themselves are incredibly durable and resist weathering, rust, and impact damage far better than other roofing materials.
Standing seam metal roofing uses hidden clips that secure the panels to the roof deck while allowing them to move with temperature changes. The seams are raised and mechanically locked together, creating a sleek appearance with no visible fasteners. Exposed fastener systems have screws driven directly through the metal panels with rubber gaskets underneath. While these systems cost less initially, the rubber gaskets deteriorate from sun exposure and the constant panel movement can cause fasteners to loosen over time. We generally don’t recommend exposed fastener metal roofing in Columbus for residential applications because they require ongoing maintenance that defeats the purpose of choosing metal roofing.
This is one of the most common concerns homeowners have, and the good news is: not really. When metal roofing is installed over a solid decking with proper insulation, it’s no louder than a standard asphalt shingle roof.
In most cases, yes. Metal roofing is relatively lightweight compared to materials like slate or tile, so existing structures typically handle it without modification. However, we always evaluate your specific roof structure to ensure it’s sound and properly supported. If we identify any concerns about the decking or framing, we’ll address those as part of the project to ensure your new metal roof has a solid foundation.
We install steel and aluminum standing seam systems in various colors and finishes to match your home’s aesthetic. For premium projects, we also offer custom copper roofing, including all-copper standing-seam installations and traditional flat-seam copper work. We have a master coppersmith who’s been with us since day one, so we can handle specialized soldering and custom fabrication that most roofing companies can’t offer. Copper develops a beautiful natural patina over time and offers unmatched longevity and elegance. Each material has specific advantages, and we’ll help you understand which option best fits your goals and budget.
As an experienced Columbus metal roofing company, we handle both metal roof repair and complete installations. Common repairs include addressing damaged panels, fixing flashing issues, or correcting installation problems from other contractors. If you have an exposed fastener metal roof, we can sometimes retrofit it or advise on whether replacement with a standing seam system makes more sense long-term. We’ll assess your specific situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
