Metal roofs are an excellent choice for any upcoming roof installation or replacements. Did you know that there’s more than one option for a metal roof? When picking out what exterior installation you want, you will have to decide if you want a standing seam roof or a corrugated metal roof. Which one is better, and how do you know? Both roofing options have many advantages, but which one is right for you is ultimately up to your style choice.

 

Corrugated Metal Roofs

The first option of metal roofing is corrugated roofs. These roofs are created with a variety of techniques and are one of the most common types of metal roofing. Corrugated roofs withstand extreme weather conditions and can last a long time. They are very popular in regions with hurricanes and extremely windy weather.  If you are looking for a more rustic, timeless look, this roofing option is right for you. The metal for corrugated roofs is shaped to have ridges and became very popular in the Industrial Age because of their durability. Corrugated roofs are also a more affordable option, making them very attractive to those who need to replace their roof.

 

Standing Seam Roofs

If you are looking for a more sleek, contemporary look for your home or business, standing seam roofs are the path to take. This style of roofing uses sleek lines of panels, which makes it preferred for more modern projects. The most significant difference between standing seam roofs and corrugated roofing is the fastening system standing seam uses. Panels of steel are interlocked to create the roof with a hidden fastener. Standing seam roofs also have the added benefits of lasting a long time, just like corrugated roofs. They also can withstand extreme weather conditions like blizzards, high winds, and rainstorms.
