About our solid aluminum standing seam roofing

Additional Information

Discover why solid aluminum is such a remarkable roofing material, learn about our standing seam roofing system, and get answers to some commonly-asked questions.

Advantages of solid aluminum

Salt spray and periods of heavy rainfall are simply no match for solid aluminum. Because aluminum doesn’t rust. Our roofing panels are also coated with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) to prevent oxidization and fading — making them all that much more ideal for our climate.

One of the lightest roofing materials available, aluminum is easy to work with and minimizes structural stress versus heavier options which sometimes require additional framing to support.  

Despite its slightness in weight, solid aluminum is extremely durable. Carrying the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal roofing material, it’s as strong or stronger than heavier roofing options.

Another wonderful advantage of an aluminum roofing system is its ability to reflect more sunlight and heat compared to other roofing options, especially when choosing lighter colors.  And our PVDF coating can achieve over 70% solar reflection. This, in turn, helps to reduce your home’s carbon footprint and ongoing cooling costs — an advantage coveted by every Roatan homeowner.

PVDF-coated solid aluminum is truly the gold standard for rainwater harvesting. It’s non-porous, non-toxic, and mildew-resistant as well as being free from adhesives (which are prone to off-gas) and other metals (which can leach into water over time). Standing seam roofs also provide the highest water collection efficiency available. 

Aluminum and our PVDF coating are non-flammable materials, meaning your roof is completely fire safe. Not only does this provide welcome peace of mind, it’s also favorable for homeowner’s insurance rates. 

In general, a solid aluminum roof only requires very basic upkeep.  Keeping nearby trees trimmed back, removing debris, cleaning gutters regularly, and washing periodically with water will keep your roof looking its best while helping extend its already remarkable lifespan.

In certain climates, and with proper installation and maintenance, solid aluminum roofs have been known to last up to 80 years. We provide a 30 year warranty on the roofing panels we manufacture, though your roof’s lifespan can easily exceed that by decades. 

While the initial cost is higher than most other roofing materials, solid aluminum’s durability and longevity means it’s a single investment. And with our local fabrication capabilities, solid aluminum roofing on Roatan no longer requires the added expense of importation.

Features of standing seam roofing

Clean and modern, yet with a certain classic elegance, standing seam roofing has the aesthetic versatility to add appeal to any property. Narrow vertical lines running from the eaves to the ridge are separated by a smooth profile with no visible fasteners, creating a striking visual effect. 

Hidden stainless steel fasteners are affixed to the roof deck in vertical rows directly over the underlayment via stainless steel screws, into which each roofing panel is clipped along one seam. The adjoining panel then snaps and locks tightly over the clipped seam. Fixed aluminum eaves pin the panels in place, while floating aluminum ridge caps are secured tightly at the ridge via Z-flashing. The entire system creates a fully sealed roof which allows for virtually unlimited movement under thermal expansion.

Not only are standing seam roofs visually appealing, they’re also incredibly durable and weathertight. When installed correctly, standing seam roofs have been able to withstand winds of up to 215 mph. 

Unlike standard metal roofing installation, all panels remain completely un-penetrated. And with fasteners protected from direct exposure to the elements, the longevity of all components is greatly enhanced.

FAQs

At this time, we stock pre-coated solid aluminum coils in the following colors, in order to readily fabricate standing seam panels on demand:
  • White
  • Charcoal Grey
Custom Color Requests
Our supplier offers hundreds of color options which can be ordered and shipped. As the coating is applied to the coils in batches upon order, minimum batch quantities apply for any specific color. In the event that the minimum batch quantity isn’t met, smaller quantities may still be ordered for a surcharge. Special-request colors are also subject to wait times for shipping and import.
Premium Aluminum
All of the components we fabricate are from 24-gauge 3105-H22 aluminum (minimum 98% aluminum alloy with nominal additions for improved strength), which has undergone ASTM B290 Method testing and inspection for quality assurance.
Superior Coating
Our aluminum is coated with Kynar 500®, a resin commonly known as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). Consisting of mostly carbon/fluoride bonds, PVDF is similar in chemical structure to Teflon®. With its superior chemistry, PVDF far outperforms other coating options in film integrity, color retention, chalk resistance, dirt resistance, and gloss retention.
Component Dimensions
  • Each standing seam panel is 14 inches wide, and we’re able to produce lengths of up to 50 feet
  • Ridge cap sections are 10 inches wide by up to 10 feet long
  • Eave drip sections are 7 inches wide (partially concealed after installation) by up to 10 feet long
  • Z-flashing sections (completely concealed by the ridge caps) are also up to 10 feet long
Accessories
For fasteners, we us 1-1/2″ snap lock panel clips in 18-gauge stainless steel, which are secured to the roof deck with 1″ stainless steel screws.
