DRK Roofing and Siding installs metal roofing on homes in Clayton and across South Jersey. A metal roof is made of metal panels or metal shingles fastened to the roof. Steel and aluminum are common roofing metals, and so is copper.
Clayton sits at the center of our service area. Call or text (856) 449-4674, and our team will come out to look at your roof. Then we email you a detailed free estimate. We also do roof replacement with asphalt shingles, so one estimate visit can cover both kinds of roof.
Tell us about the roof, siding, windows, doors, gutters or deck and where the job is. We look at it and put a free estimate in writing.
A standing seam metal roof uses metal panels joined at raised seams. Those seams lift each joint above the water on the roof. Hidden clips typically hold the panels down, so the screws stay out of sight. A Department of Energy building guide calls standing seam highly resistant to wind and wind-driven rain.
Exposed fastener panels are ribbed metal sheets screwed through the face into the roof. Each screw has a rubber washer that seals its hole. The guide says to drive each screw so the washer seals without being crushed. FEMA notes one plus: you can count the screws after the install and add more if needed.
Metal shingles are made to look like other roofing, such as wood shakes or clay tile. FEMA notes they need a fairly steep roof with underlayment beneath them. Standing seam can go on a much flatter roof, down to a quarter inch of rise per foot.
A metal roof starts at the roof deck, the sheathing under the roofing. Standing seam typically goes on a sheathed deck, the Department of Energy guide says, rather than wood strips. Soft or rotted decking should be fixed before anything covers it.
Underlayment goes over the deck as a second barrier against water. The same guide recommends two layers of #30 felt under metal. For peel-and-stick underlayment, FEMA advises a product made for use under metal. Those products hold up better in high heat.
Drip edge belongs along the eaves and the rake edges, the guide adds. Trim caps the ridge and the hips. Flashing seals each spot where the roof meets a chimney or a wall. Valley flashing should be the same metal as the roof.
Nor'easters bring strong wind and heavy rain to New Jersey, most often from October to April. FEMA's storm damage studies show where metal roofs let go in high wind. Panels came loose where the first clips sat too far from the eave. Ridge flashing blew off where its screws were spaced too far apart.
Up north, New Jersey's state climate office counts 40 to 50 inches of snow a year. The far south of the state gets 10 to 15. Snow that does fall can slide off a metal roof. Snow guards can hold it back over a doorway, the Department of Energy guide notes.
Metal panels also come with reflective coatings that cut heat gain in summer. A metal roof's long life counts most on a house you plan to keep. At the estimate, we can talk through metal and asphalt shingles for your house.
