Installation & Repairs for Commercial Metal Roofing in Dyersburg, Tennessee

Agricultural metal roofing is by far the most commonly used metal roof panel because of the low price. It is made of a lightweight 29-gauge galvanized metal and can be nailed or screwed over existing shingle roofs. The wide panel makes for quick and easy installation. The metal panels can be ordered and shipped as soon as one to two weeks. The paint finish on most agricultural panels have a siliconized acrylic or siliconized polyester paint finish that carries a ten to twenty-year paint finish warranty. Very low maintenance is required, only once or twice a year.

Residential metal roof panels are used on homes where looks and long-term value are desired. The residential panel is made of a heavy 26- or 24-gauge steel and can be screwed to the roof decking or purlins over a single layer of shingles. The most noticeable difference is there are no screws showing through the roof panel. The panels are made in twelve-inch-wide widths and any length needed. This makes a very strong panel that can be handled and installed easily without the need to splice panels. The panels are made on the job site as needed, one to three days on orders. The paint finish on residential metal panels is a fluoropolymer. The metal panels carry guarantees of twenty, thirty and fifty years. The key to these warranties is found in the paint finish. It is a carbon / fluoride bond, one of the strongest chemical bonds known, very similar to Teflon. No maintenance is required on a residential snap seam panel.
