Two Distinct Styles. One Superior System.

Slate Style Metal Roofing Clean, Architectural, Timeless

Perfect for homeowners looking for a high-end, traditional appearance.

Benefits:

  • Replicates natural slate texture and shadow lines
  • Clean, uniform appearance for upscale homes
  • No cracking or breakage like real slate
  • Much lighter than traditional stone

Cedar Shake Style Metal Roofing Rustic, Warm, and Natural

Get the beauty of cedar without the maintenance issues.

Benefits:

  • Authentic wood-grain look and depth
  • No rot, mold, splitting, or insect damage
  • Rich shadow lines for a dimensional finish
  • Ideal for coastal and wooded New England homes

Traditional shake roofs are prone to warping, splitting, and deterioration over time—but metal shake systems eliminate those issues entirely.

Advanced Engineering Behind Both Systems

These aren’t just aesthetic upgrades—they’re engineered roofing systems.

Interlocking Panel Technology

Panels lock on all four sides for superior strength, helping prevent water intrusion and wind uplift.

Water Management Design

Deep keyways and channeling systems move water efficiently off the roof and away from the structure.

Hidden Fastener System

Clean appearance with no exposed screws—while improving weather resistance.

Lightweight Steel Construction

Delivers durability without the structural load of slate or tile roofing.

Performance Built for New England

Designed to handle the toughest regional conditions:

  • Heavy snow & fast snow shedding
  • Ice dam resistance
  • High wind performance
  • Driving rain protection
  • Freeze/thaw durability
