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.

• 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.
• For fasteners, we use 1-1/2″ snap lock panel clips in 18-gauge stainless steel, which are secured to the roof deck with 1″ stainless steel screws.

While not a drawback, per say, an important consideration is that aluminum is highly ductile, meaning it’s flexible and formable, and can endure a great deal of stress without losing its strength. Simply put, it’s the opposite of brittle. Aluminum’s ductility is helpful for fabricating our roofing panels with precision, as well as preventing cracks or breaks in your roof. But this same attribute makes it more susceptible to cosmetic denting, so care should be taken to prevent this.

To minimize the risk of denting, aluminum roofing should be installed over sheathing, kept free from overhanging branches, and foot traffic should be limited to supported sections, especially on ridge caps.

Aluminum is considered a high-end roofing material not only because of its superior performance, but also because of its material cost. This is influenced by several different factors, including the specific extraction and production processes required to refine bauxite ore, from which aluminum is derived, as well as supply tightness. Additionally, importation adds to our fabrication costs, as the PVDF-coated aluminum coils need to be sourced from abroad.

Despite these factors, our product remains more affordable to Roatan homeowners than purchasing & importing prefabricated aluminum roofing from the U.S. (which is otherwise the most direct means of obtaining it).  Furthermore, the higher initial cost is offset by aluminum’s long-term benefits, ultimately providing better value over time.

Our solid aluminum standing seam roofing is available for purchase with or without installation included, and we’re happy to quote either option.

Due to the unique installation techniques for this product, we recommend that our systems only be installed by roofers who have prior experience with standing seam roofing. Our warranty cannot fully cover panels which have been incorrectly handled or installed.

Absolutely. In these cases, we typically outsource for the preparative work (removal of the existing roofing material, performance of repairs to the sheathing if necessary, and installation of the underlayment). From there, our team skillfully handles the installation of your new roof.

Yes, of course. Our team are roofing installation experts, so while our solid aluminum standing seam system is the only roofing product we fabricate ourselves, we do all sorts of Roatan roofing projects. We can order and capably install almost any other type of roofing desired. 

For homes or other roofed structures being built by Webster Construction, the roofing material to be installed may not be our solid aluminum standing seam roofing, as each project is tailored to the client’s specific needs and budget. Please refer to your project quote and/or contract for the specific roofing included with your project.
