What are stone-coated metal roof panels made of?
There used to be only a couple of types of metal roofing — corrugated metal, which has certainly improved over time but aesthetically has always been limited in options, or the much more costly copper cladding.
Our latest product – stone-coated metal roofing. Stone-coated steel roofing is combined with the look of wood, shake or shingle, or other types to give a durable roof coupled with an aesthetically pleasing exterior.
See materials used to produce a single panel:
WIND
RESISTANT
CK Steel stone-coated metal roofing is screwed direct to decking and interlocks together to provide a 170 MPH wind rating. Due to this installation method, blow-offs will not occur. Typically blow-offs are prevalent with asphalt shingles.
WATER
MANAGEMENT
CK Steel stone-coated metal roofing provides stone-coated accessories which create a water management system to direct water directly into gutters. The components making up this system also provide an added layer of protection to fascia, eaves, valleys, and all points of potential water entry.
HAIL
RESISTANT
CK Steel stone-coated metal roofing protects up to golf ball-sized hail and is certified with a class 4 impact rating. This classification is preferred by insurance companies due to the added protection to the homeowner.
FIRE
RETARDANT
CK Steel stone-coated metal roofing is made from heat-resistant and non-combustible materials giving it a Class A fire rating.
