What Are Metal Roofs?
Metal roofs are a classic Canadian choice for any building. Farmers and industrialists were the first businesses to adopt metal roofs more than 100 years ago. Just like today, the earliest metal roofs offered easy installation and great performance. They were also simple to repair when needed.
Metal roofs are still commonly found on barns, warehouses, and other industrial facilities. Many modern homeowners also appreciate these systems. Metal roofs offer a traditional rustic appeal that enhances homes in any setting. Whether you live outside of town or in a busy neighbourhood, a metal roof creates a beautiful, classic appearance.
How Are Metal Roofs Made?
Metal roofs are available in several different options. Iron Shield Roofing installs metal shingles, standing-seam metal roofing panels, and stone-coated metal shingles. All of these roofing systems are created using a different production method. However, metal roofs have something in common. Each metal system has a thick layer of solid steel at its core.
People have used steel for thousands of years. This iron alloy has a global history as a strong material perfect for tools, weapons, and buildings. Modern metal roofs build upon this international tradition. Today’s steel roofs are coated with additional protective layers to enhance the front and back of your roofing materials.
Iron Shield Roofing offers metal roofs with these protective coatings:
Galvalume (a powerful mixture of zinc, silicon, and aluminum)
Epoxies
Pre-treatments
Sealants
Silicon-modified polyester resin
Polyvinylidene fluoride
Dyes and colourants
Signs It’s Time To Replace Your Roof
Whether your building already has a metal roof or you’re ready to upgrade from a different system, there are some clear signs that your roof is ready for replacement. Severe storms, heavy winters, and large impacts such as downed trees can all take a roof past the point of no return. Roofs also have standard lifespans. Depending on what system you have now, your roof may need a replacement after years or decades of performance.
Holes, leaks, rusty patches, missing shingles, and other major problems are obvious signs that your roof might need to be replaced. More subtle signs can point towards trouble as well. Problems with your roof can manifest throughout the rest of your building. Keep an eye out for these common signs of serious roof damage:
Increasing utility costs
Leaks, drips, or water damage on interior ceilings and walls
Insect, animal, or other pest infestations
Unusual noises from your attic or upper floors
Indoor humidity or drafts

METAL ROOFING SHINGLES
Metal roofing shingles are adaptable options that provide high-level protection for your office, home, barn, or other building. Metal shingles are thick steel plates that have been coated in multiple layers of industrial coatings and protectants. Steel shingles can withstand high snowfall and heavy ice accumulation, making them perfect for any Canadian project.
STANDING SEAM METAL ROOFING PANELS
Standing-seam roofing panels consist of long strips of metal instead of individual shingles. These panels are engineered with clever raised seams at regular intervals. Seams create an uneven roofing surface that prevents snow and ice from forming a solid layer on top of your home. You can protect your investments from weather damage while adding beautifully rustic curb appeal to any building with a standing-seam roof
STONE-COATED STEEL ROOFING SHINGLES
Stone-coated steel shingles have the same solid metal core found in our other metal roofing systems. The main difference is that these shingles are coated in natural stone particles to create the look of a classic slate roof. Stone-coated shingles let you add a sense of Old World elegance to any project while also enjoying the unbeatable protection of steel.
