Heritage Series in Stayner, Clearview.

Heritage Series standing seam · 24-ga · concealed fastener · PVDF Kynar 500 · 50-year limited transferable warranty

This Heritage Series roof is in Stayner, in Clearview Township. Standing seam, concealed fastener, continuous panels from ridge to eave. Two winters after we finished it we went back with the homeowner, walked the roof, and flew the drone over it. Everything we look for after two seasons — the seams, the eaves, the flashing at the dormers — was where we left it. That is the part you cannot see on the day the crew drives away.

Two winters on

We went back to look at it.

A roof looks its best the week it goes on. The question worth asking is what it looks like after two Ontario winters.

What should a metal roof look like after two winters?

The same as it did the day it went on. On a concealed-fastener roof there are no exposed screws to back out, so the things we check are the seams, the flashing where the dormers meet the field, and the eaves. Colour is the slow one — PVDF Kynar 500 is tested to hold its finish over decades, so two winters should show nothing at all. If a roof has moved, two winters of freeze-thaw is when it tells you.

Why go back to a finished roof at all?

Because we would rather find something at year two than year ten, and because a homeowner deciding on metal is not really asking how it looks new. We do this where the homeowner is happy to have us back.

How a dam forms, what snow guards actually do, and what the structure still has to carry is on Ice dams, snow load, and snow guards in Ontario.
