Standing Seam

ROOF Cladding

Thanks to its high-class performance, durability, and modern finish, standing seam roof cladding is a popular roofing solution in Melbourne and across Australia.

Standing seam roofing features a broad flat area between two raised (also called vertical) ribs. This pattern of one raised, vertical rib followed by a broad, flat area gets repeated to form a distinctive look.

One of the major appeals of this type of roofing system is that the fasteners are cleverly concealed. The panel is typically attached to the substrate with the help of a concealed clip.

This creates a seamless surface consisting of sleek lines. While simple in design, it’s this simplicity that’s the secret behind its iconic, timeless look.

Another big benefit of standing seam roofing is that it offers loads of customization options. From color to width, there are various options that architects and home builders in Melbourne can explore.

Standing Seam Roof Cladding

Standing Seam roofing requires a fully supported buildup.
It is recommended that the sub-construction is installed using 17mm structural plywood installed over roof battens which allows for ventilation.
The plywood is also wrapped with weather proof membrane (such as Proctor Wrap).
We offer a full service including sub-construction on our standing seam roof installations.

Raise The Roof With Standing Seam Roof Cladding

Durable. Energy Efficient. Aesthetically Pleasing. Low Maintenance. Enhanced Heat Transfer. Customisable.

Standing seam roof cladding offers many advantages for residential properties in Melbourne, making it a great choice for both functionality and looks:

Customisable:Standing seam roof cladding is a customisable option, which allows different sizes of panel (widths and lengths) and can be installed in a number of different material options. The number of detailing options available are nearly infinite and can be installed to reflect architectural designs.steel, aluminum, zinc, or copper, and, if you settle on steel, you can select virtually any colour to complement the rest of the building.
Durable: Standing seam roof cladding requires concealed clips. The concealed clips used allow for minimal movement for expansion and contraction of panels caused by elements.
Energy Efficient: On top of its impressive durability, a standing seam roofing system can also make it easier to maintain the energy efficiency of the property. By selecting for example, a light colored metal, you can better reflect the UB rays of the sun.
Aesthetically Pleasing: Not only does it offer great durability in the area where you need it most, but it can also improve the visual appeal of the property. Fastener heads are often regarded as unattractive, and as fasteners are concealed with this type of roofing system, it’s another issue that’s solved. The patterned straight lines also create a sleek look helping to give your property a modern feel.
Low Maintenance: Compared to other popular roofing systems like tiles or shingles, standing seam requires less maintenance. As the fasteners are concealed, checking for damaged or loose fasteners need to be completed less often.
Enhanced Heat Transfer: A standing seam roof system allows for improved expansion and contraction as the metal panels aren’t pinned down.
