The old and New Metal Roofs

Unlike the old predecessors, the proverbial steel barns with rusty lines, pigments and dull colors, the metal roofs of today offer a vibrant array of colors, styles and finishes. Not only that, a good chunk of modern metal roofs are coated with Kynar 500 or better coating that comes with 30 year paint finish warranty. What that means that your metal roof is not only protected by the process of galvanization used with steel roofing systems, but the paint that further enhances the protection of galvanized steel.

Presented below are Aluminum Shingle Metal Roofing colors for the residential metal roofing system we install in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut. This system is comprised of Metal Shingle, that interlocks on all four sides resulting in a fully interlocking metal roofing system that meets Miami Dade County wind uplift requirements, reflects solar radiant heat, sheds snow and ice and helps prevent ice dams. Please note, that not all available colors are shown below. What you see is only a sampling  colors for aluminum roofing system that can be installed over existing asphalt shingle.

To demonstrate this system in Action I am providing a link to a Metal Roofing Installation Video on YouTube. The roof you will see below was installed in Revere, MA and the owners are really happy with it.  Because of the low slope of the roof we have implemented some custom metal roofing flashing. You will notice that the roof color is not the one shown above. The color of the roof in a video is light brown / or coffee color.
