Unique Installation System for Metal and Steel Roofs
Metal Roof Montreal uses a unique installation technique for your new steel or metal roof. Here is an outline of the steps we take to ensure your roof lasts a lifetime. When you see what we do, you will understand why so many homeowners trust us to make their home more comfortable and beautiful.
First, we install double strapping, nailed directly into the rafters of the roof. This reinforces the structure of the existing roof, before installing the metal tiles.
That is the core of why we do not add much weight to the roof. The weight of your roof is not distributed on the plywood like it is in the case of installing asphalt shingles. Even some metal roofing companies install the metal panels directly on the plywood. The plywood often sags and the screws will get loose over time. Double strapping is the key to a proper installation.
This double strapping also provides continuous ventilation under the panels so that there is no condensation. Condensation leads to earlier rust.
Another advantage of the double strapping is that it helps with the heat reflective property of the metal roof so you pay even less for your energy bills.
Metal Roof Montreal installs a ridge-vent for each metal roof. This ventilation opening along the horizontal top ridge keeps the attic space consistently and uniformly well ventilated. Small, regular plastic vents can lead to humidity or condensation in the attic insulation.
This ridge-vent eliminates both humidity and condensation in the attic space, creating a more uniform temperature, year ‘round. Wet insulation from inadequate ventilation is like wearing a wet t-shirt. It makes everything colder in the winter and hotter in the summer. Dry insulation in the attic is critical to a comfortable home. That’s why we use a ridge-vent technique.
This combination of unique installation approaches means that with Metal Roof Montreal your home is in good hands.
