Your Guide to Built-Up vs. Metal Commercial Roofing

New Metal Roof

Commercial properties have different roofing needs than residential properties because commercial roofs tend to be larger and are typically flat (as opposed to sloped). Two common options for commercial roofing are metal and built up roofing systems.

Built up roofing consists of many layers of asphalt and fabric membranes laid on top of each other. A layer of gravel sits on top that helps protect the asphalt from weather damage.

In contrast, metal roofing consists of a single layer of roofing material (metal). For commercial properties, metal roofing comes in large panels, which you can divide into two general categories – exposed fastener and standing seam.

Exposed fastener metal roofing panels have the screws that hold the panels in a place exposed to the elements. Standing seam metal roofs, instead, cover the edge where two metal panels meet.

Understanding the significant differences between metal and built up roofing makes it easier for you to figure out which is the best fit for your commercial property.
