Galvalume Standing Seam Metal Roofs
Galvalume steel is an ideal roofing material because of its strength, extraordinary outdoor corrosion resistance and longevity. It delivers the optimum combination of the features of aluminum and zinc: the barrier protection and long-term durability of aluminum and the sacrificial or galvanic protection of sheared edges that is characteristic of zinc. Drexel Metals LLC., has 35 different Energy Star Rated cool metal roofing colors with their reflective TRINAR® paint finish.
We, as a leading Metal Roofing Company offer highest quality Standing Seam Metal Roofing in many areas including Hatboro, Narberth and Fort Washington.
Stone-Coated Steel Shingle, Shake or Tile
For all the benefits of a metal roof with a more traditional or rustic look try a stone-coated Shingle, Shake or Terra Cotta styled look. Made of 26 gauge steel this product covered with zinc-aluminum allow, acrylic primer, basecoat, natural stone granules and an overglaze to make sure your metal roof looks as good on day one as it does on year 50!
Copper Roofing
Copper, rooted in centuries of use, will not rust, has no finish to scratch or peel, is soft enough to easily tool and weathers naturally to a beautiful, natural green patina. Although considerably more expensive than aluminum and steel, copper is the metal of choice for
buildings with a long design life.

Aluminum Standing Seam Metal Roofs
Aluminum is extremely lightweight, won't rust but must be painted or coated for appearance. Coatings are similar to those used on Galvalume. Aluminum is a viable option for virtually any roof where steel or other materials are being considered, particularly in coastal environments where salt air can cause corrosion.

Zinc Roofing
In Europe zinc roofing enjoys tremendous popularity, protecting well over 60% of residential roofs. Roofs made with zinc are expected to last 80 to 100 years and even longer, while zinc walls can last anywhere from 200 to 300 years.
Terne-coated Stainless Steel is covered on both sides with an alloy comprised of 50% tin and 50% zinc to a thickness of 20 microns.. This stainless steel product is unpainted, won't rust or corrode and its terne coating can give it a natural, matt-gray finish.
