Metal Roofing Systems We Install
Not all metal roofs are the same. We install three proven systems and help you choose the right one for your home, budget and style.
Standing Seam
Concealed fasteners with raised vertical seams — the cleanest, most architectural profile, with continuous lines and no visible screws.
Metal Shingles
Pressed metal panels that read like traditional shingle or slate from the ground, with the strength and lifespan of a full metal system.
Exposed Fastener
Ribbed panels fixed through the face. The most economical metal option and a practical choice for simple roof shapes.

Four coatings on one wall, fourteen years of weather. Only the Kynar 500® PVDF finish kept its colour and gloss — the others faded and chalked. It’s the clearest proof of why we finish our metal roofs with Kynar 500.
| Coating | Colour Retention | Gloss Retention | Chalk Resistance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kynar 500® PVDF | Excellent | Excellent | Excellent |
| Silicone-Modified Polyester | Good | Good | Good |
| Polyester | Fair | Fair | Fair |
| Acrylic | Fair | Poor | Fair |

Kynar 500® PVDF — Proven to Last for Decades
Our metal roofs are finished with Kynar 500® PVDF resin, the same coating trusted on landmark buildings worldwide. In independent long-term outdoor testing, Kynar 500® finishes held their colour and gloss for decades while acrylic, polyester and silicone-polyester coatings faded and chalked — so your roof keeps looking new for years.

Why Choose a Metal Roof
Lasts 50+ Years
A quality metal roof can outlive two or three asphalt roofs. Install once and you may never reroof again.
Built for NS Weather
Sheds snow and stands up to high winds, salt air and driving rain — built to handle Atlantic Canada’s toughest weather.
Fade & Rust Resistant
A Kynar 500 PVDF finish on 26-gauge steel holds its colour and shrugs off corrosion year after year.
Energy Efficient
Reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it, helping keep your home cooler and lowering summer energy bills.
Fire & Rot Proof
Non-combustible steel won’t burn, rot, or feed mould — safer and healthier than organic materials.
Adds Home Value
A premium, durable roof boosts curb appeal, resale value, and can even lower your insurance costs.
