Our Specialty

Standing Seam Metal Roofing in Middle Tennessee

A concealed-fastener metal roofing system chosen by homeowners who plan to keep their home for the long term.

The Basics

What standing seam actually is

A standing seam roof is made of long metal panels that run vertically from the ridge down to the eave. Where two panels meet, the edges are turned up and locked together — that raised joint is the "standing seam."

The panels are attached to the roof deck with clips and fasteners that sit underneath the metal. Nothing is screwed through the face of the panel across the field of the roof.

Why concealed fasteners matter

On exposed-fastener metal roofing, screws pass through the panel and seal against a rubber washer. Those washers are a maintenance item — they are the part of the roof most likely to need attention over time.

Standing seam avoids that by hiding the attachment points. It also allows the panels to expand and contract with temperature changes without working against the fasteners.

Appearance and architecture

The clean vertical lines suit modern homes, farmhouses, and traditional Tennessee architecture alike. Panel widths, seam heights, and finish colors all change the character of the roof, and we'll walk through those choices with you before anything is ordered.

Is It Right For You?

Who standing seam suits best

Standing seam is a strong fit for homeowners who intend to stay in the home, or who want the next owner to inherit a roof that isn't a problem.

It's also a natural choice on new construction, where the roof can be planned as part of the architecture rather than added later.

It costs more up front than several other roofing options. If the priority is the lowest possible price today, standing seam probably isn't the right system — and we'll tell you that honestly.
