Why we use it
BCG uses it for porches, connectors, accent roofs, and full roof systems where clean water management is essential.
Character
Panel width, seam height, finish, and roof slope determine whether it feels refined or commercial.
What we look for
Proper gauge, panel profile, finish warranty, fastener strategy, flashing details, and installer quality.
Design considerations
Panel layout should align with openings and roof forms rather than being left to the installer alone.
Installation considerations
Expansion, penetrations, underlayment, ventilation, and flashing transitions require careful coordination.
Common mistakes
Poor panel layout, exposed fasteners in the wrong places, and unresolved transitions to masonry or walls.
Maintenance + aging
Metal roofs need periodic inspection at seams, penetrations, sealants, and gutters.
