Standing seam roof installation

[@MrVIGUY]

Hey Michael, I have watched many videos of the installation of standing seam and I have to say that you are truly on point. I have been installing SS since about 1985 and presently own 3 different machines. Standing seam is all about clean lines and symmetry and you certainly have that under control. Hooked panels, folded tabs on the legs, hooked valleys. There are a lot of hacks out there but you are not one of them. I'm not easily impressed but your work looks top notch.

Tape on that cleat goes on painted side. Now u have the white showing under the cleat. I know cnt see it much but you can see it. Painted side is suppose to be pointing down so thats what u see with the small rise the cleat has on it.

Standing seam is super detailed work. You make it look fun. Well done friend.

[@douglaswilliams7130]

oh I just love crap like this. those guys are obviously well salted pro's. I wasn't that familiar with metal roofing systems. 1) I didn't know it was so complicated to get that professional,finished look 2) I didn't know that if you listened carefully and payed attention you could learn so much. maybe not so much to give it a go like I'm going to ,but enough to enjoy sitting and watching it again. Huge tremendous Qaalpla's to America's backbone. The tradesmen. subbed. thanks for the educational fun guys.

very nice and clean. I am a roofer myself but never installed a standing seam roof. It looks a little tricky when it comes to a valley or change of pitch. I can tell this isnt your first job but you do good work.

[@robertbutler8004]

Jon, I have installed hundreds of metal roofing and I too have not installed a standing seam roof you are right this was a very difficult job. Yet we see smart asses like Andy know it all Hass criticizing the quality of this job!!

[@roycepavich2441]

The valleys are tricky at first but you just need the right method to fold it correctly

[@jamiebrierly3107]

Nice to see someone else know how to do it correct! Always lock gutter edge on hookstrip instead of putting a gasket screw through a nice looking panel and use cleats in valleys and transition and z strip under cap and transition!

[@roycepavich2441]

Lovely work guys I’ve done a few tray roofs here in New Zealand !

[@stratmister009]

Doing a great job, some installers I've seen don't pay attention to those details and you end up with leaks, beehives, wood rot.

[@hardset-vi3ze]

I notice you did not bend the tops of the panels up at the tops. I did a standing seam metal roof (snap lock/champion roofing) about 10 years ago and the OEM told us to cut notches on the top of each course and use the bender to bend up the very top lip at a 90 degree angle. Then use a high quality caulking and seal off the two inside corners. Then bring the Ridge Cap down over the 90 degree bend up areas and use neoprene washered fasteners to secure the Ridge Cap down thru the tops of the standing seams. It held great. The 90 degree bend ups prevented strong winds from blowing water up under the Ridge Cap and coming in on the very top where the two opposing sides of the roof met. Don't let anyone tell you water won't run uphill regardless of grade. Think hurricanes!!! The roof is holding up fine...no complaints from the PHD engineer who paid me $1,264,500 for the place. I was wonder if and why the technology has changed? Seemed like a good system?

[@MandMconstruction]

Jack, At the ridge we use a piece of Z bar flashing just like what's done here with the transition flashing. The Z bar has a 3/8 butyl tape under it and we seal at the ribs with geocell. We use fasteners to attach the Z bar through the roof and finally attach the ridge cap to the Z bar with rivets. On this roof there are no exposed fasteners at all.

[@jamiebrierly3107]

Also one thing I have did in past under my transition behind my z strip is food the back of my panel up 3/4 inch or so just in case anything ever gets past my z strip! U did a awesome job and just one thing I have learnt passing it on to ya! I do a lot of older style true standing seam with turne metal where metal comes in a roll and make it all by hand and double locked etc! Looks nice, good job again!

Technically that's a snap together roof system. Double lock standing seam is made entirely different. From manufacturing to installation. Been roofing for going on 18 yrs and by comparison, true double lock seam roofs are the way to go, especially in the northern climate.

[@Charlies1970TA]

Wow, so glad my metal roof install won't be this complicated! Above my paygrade!

[@craigdeal1742]

nice work great video coming from someone who knows metal roofing.

[@benth162]

Interestingly enough I worked with the designer who was one of the first men to design the rollers and machine to produce those types of panels. I, at the time worked for a company called Champion Metal in Oregon. There are multiple types of interlocking panels, but that particular design was ours. From what I can see, their roofing system with their new tools is more advanced that was ours though because we designed those panels over 33 years ago and had not worked out all the kinks. Running those panels through the forming machine is more difficult that some types because of the shape of that locking rib with the turned under lip which locked onto the previous panel. That type metal roof though should not be walked on unless they know exactly where the skip sheeting is or they will warp the panels causing a possible point of leakage. These types of roofs though should be made from 16 Ga. galvanized and painted steel sheets with a lower content of carbon because with a high carbon content, when you crimp a seam, it will crack. A grade of steel with lower amounts of carbon are what is called for, so the metal can be worked more easily, even though it is not quite as strong as the high carbon content type. I can no longer remember the grade types of that metal after all these years.

Hi

[@MandMconstruction]

this one is a retro fit. we lathed it out with 1x4s over the shingles And insulation, fastened into underlying framing 20"apart

[@MandMconstruction]

hi t years and years of doing it. I grew up with a roofer. some vendors and manufacturers offer a course you can take as well

[@whatdaheck9667]

that is a 16" strirated panel ,should be on 18" centers on lading but overall well done on the roof as i have repaied many standing seam roofs that were done improperly . i prefer the 16" meriden lock myself in the hipped panel not strirated .also i dont use rake trim ,i cut and fold 1" lengthwise and use eve trim

[@nickritchie4905]

Who is your panel supplier

[@justinkenyon9003]

Look at that clean pouch must have been brand new

[@izzzzzz6]

Nice roofing but i just want to point out the problem i'm currently facing. From the research i've been doing it looks like an air gap between the insolation and the roof is necessary, to both stop thermal bridging from the insulation to the tin (heat loss) and also to stop radiant heat transferring from the underside of the tin into the insulation (heat gain in the summer). However it is also recommended that tin roofing is fixed to a flat board, if your going to walk on it it is defiantly a good idea IMO. Solutions i have seen are either to add another layer of baton and then another deck (more osb) so the air gap is under the final layer of deck and the insulation is beneath that or to use 1x4 baton perhaps diagonally or horizontally with notching under the baton to provide a vertical airflow. If heat is a real problem then it looks like you should consider an extra later with foil and another air gap. There is no simple solution, all solutions are expensive but to avoid general condensation, ridge rot or ice dams some of the above techniques should be applied. It depends if the loft space is conditioned (house tempreture) or if it is ventalated and insulated above the top floor ceilings. I have been trying to get my head around this the last few days, there are also underlayments air tight barriers and breathable membranes to consider. It's no wonder so many people are doing it wrong especially when you combine all of that with cost, time and the clients budget. Our house needs a new roof but we have large overhangs and we live at 1000M so climate is very variable. Now just to decide how to do this, i'm still lost!

[@izzzzzz6]

another way to do it horizontally is to leave lots of gaps between smaller pieces of 1x4 so that the air can flow between and escape at the ridge.

[@izzzzzz6]

Sorry not trying to annoy anyone but i have been doing days of research on this because i am going to tackle my own roof soon and breathability defiantly seems to be a big issue both for moisture control and to help excess heat escape during the summer. It is difficult to say as there are so many variables. But i've recently seen videos of houses that looked like they had professional installations but either the heat cooked the under layers in the summer or condensation from extreme cold weather destroyed the ridge in the winter and during seasonal change. I'm also trying to figure out the effectiveness of the insulation as i don't want to compromise it's effectiveness after spending so much money and time on it.

[@lucascoulton]

Don't know if you are still searching... but check out PERSIST building system, and see how they put together the walls and roofs. Also, read up on the CCHR (Cold Climate Housing Research Center). CCHR has some awesome information. Watch this video from them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z53IqoSqpruJY6M. It is a two part video, about 2 hours long. It is WELL worth the watch. Good luck! I too am designing my own roof.

[@dekonfrost7]

Buy i insulation. Breathability ahhh it depends on climate but really if from the roof deck down youre good... youre good. Simple dont let running water enter. If jts tight you wont have much condensation. If its too loose you wont have insulation. So .

[@danielmoskowitz3060]

The furring strips are a needed so the clips screw into something solid. most roofs(especially in homes built in the last 40 years) have trussed roofs and are laid out 24" O.C. some 19.2" OC, Rarely 16" OC, So the clips would only hit some meat every 3rd or 6th panel. Fastening requirements do also depend on the local codes and wind category. If the insulation is to the roof deck then there should be an air baffle between the bottom of the plywood and the batted insulation. The air baffle( which pulls outside air from the soffitts and brings it up to the roof vent) should prevent the roof deck from getting cool enough(in the summer) to create condensation on the top of the roof under layment but even if condensation does occur it would be minimal and I can't see it accumulating and getting under the furring and getting to any wood beyond the furring strips themselves.

Thanks for the video and great job done. However, a Q? when standing seam metal is nailed/screwed to the floor /base like corrugated metal, what is the point to use it as far as corrosion/expansion/contraction is concerned?

[@MandMconstruction]

The fasteners hold the clip down and are covered by the next sheet so no fasteners are exposed. Also, the clip allows some movement for expansion/ contraction. The runs on this roof are so short that expansion and contraction aren't really as much of concern compared to 40 ft long runs.. thanks for watching!

I have a question if you had to replace 3 or 4 panels due to tree damage. And panels really damaged. How difficult are they to remove and/or disconnect panels from each others seeing how they were connected and locked in place. If I install from right to left. Do I remove everyone of them to get to the damage panels. Lets say it's 5 or 6 panels in from the gable edge or from a valley.

[@MandMconstruction]

You can unclip the seams if its a snap lock. Start at one end and run it up the seam. You'll have to remove that section of ridge cap and Z bar. It's unlikely that the colors will match though. Good luck

Hello there, how do the boys flash two 45 degree sheets on the ridge, keeping the standing seam or ridge profile or prickle along the top of the ridge please? I'm looking for a 12 inch ridge cap but must have no welding folded to 45 degrees for architectural appearance, rather than basic flat ridge cap. Thankyou.

[@MandMconstruction]

I think you are referring to a hip roof.? On the hip ridge, first Lay your ridge out and sure it's straight, mark each side. Install your z bar flashing 1/4 to 1/2 inch inside those marks. Rivet the ridge to this continuous z. If it's too tight it will buckle and leave small dents on every standing rib. Hips are tricky. Ridge must be bent on the correct pitch as well. Good luck

[@aandscrawfoski]

@MandMconstruction thanks I'm thinking about using the manufacturers sheet forming machine and roll through marine aluminum to form the roof profile and bend to 45 degrees at 4 inch coverage on each side of ridge . Might dent, though. Don't want to weld the joint seam to achieve the 45 cap angle . The pointed ridge cap looks great compared to the same old flat sheet ridge cap. Tricky problem for me. Andrew Nz
