Standing seam metal roofing in Barrie
Barrie and Simcoe County get lake-effect snow that punishes asphalt. Standing seam is the profile that handles it — and we roll every panel ourselves, so nothing about your roof is off-the-shelf.
Why snow country favours standing seam
Asphalt shingles fail at their edges under repeated freeze-thaw. A mechanical-lock standing seam roof has no exposed fasteners and no horizontal laps, so meltwater has nowhere to work its way in. Snow slides off the smooth panel face instead of accumulating.
Specification for high snow loads
- 1.5" mechanical lock seam for low-slope and heavy-load roofs
- 24 gauge steel as the standard recommendation north of the GTA
- Full ice-and-water shield plus upgraded ridge and soffit ventilation
- Snow guards positioned over entries, decks and driveways
Cottage and rural delivery
For rural Simcoe and Oro-Medonte properties where transporting long panels is impractical, we bring the roll former to the site and produce full-length panels on your driveway.
Frequently asked questions
Do you deliver standing seam panels to Barrie?
Yes. Barrie, Innisfil, Oro-Medonte, Orillia and Alliston are on our regular delivery route north from Kleinburg, and our mobile mill travels for larger projects.
Is standing seam good for heavy snow?
It is the best-performing residential roof in snow country. The smooth, fastener-free surface sheds snow instead of holding it, and the raised seam keeps meltwater away from the deck. Snow guards are recommended over doors and driveways.
Does it prevent ice dams?
It greatly reduces them. Combined with proper attic ventilation and full ice-and-water shield, a standing seam roof gives meltwater no shingle edge to back up under.
