The process begins with a thorough inspection and preparation of the roof deck. We then install a protective underlayment followed by the custom-cut standing seam metal panels. These panels are secured with concealed fasteners and the seams are mechanically crimped for a watertight seal. Proper flashing and trim complete the installation for optimal performance.
While asphalt shingles typically have a lower upfront cost, their lifespan and performance in Oregon's wet climate can lead to higher long-term expenses due to repairs and earlier replacement. Standing seam metal roofs, though a larger initial investment, offer superior durability, longevity, and resistance to wind and rain, often proving more cost-effective over time.
The 25% rule is generally related to shingle warranties, indicating a threshold for potential full roof replacement if a significant portion is damaged.
