Metal Roofing & Cladding

Mechanical standing seam and snap-lock metal roofing systems renowned for their durability, weather-tight performance, and sleek, modern aesthetic.

Designed for low-slope or pitched roofs, these roofs are built to last 50+ years, providing long-term protection and a premium appearance.

Why Choose Mechanical Standing Seam?

These roofing systems outlast many other materials. The concealed fasteners are protected from the elements, reducing the need for maintenance and repairs.

> High-strength, watertight seams

> Concealed fasteners reduce maintenance

> Sleek vertical lines create a modern architectural look

> Panels often formed on-site for perfect integration

“I would not hesitate to work with Philip and his team in the future.

The Rubarth Group installed a black standing seam metal roof on my new home, and I continue to get comments from visitors about how beautiful it looks!

The job was completed on-time, at quoted price, and with professionalism. This is rare in the contracting world.”
