Galvalume® is an Aluminum-Zinc alloy coating that is applied to the steel substrate in a hot dip bath at the steel mill. This coating ensures corrosion resistance and long life, with an available 20 year warranty**. Galvalume® has a highly reflective, silver spangled color which weathers in unique patterns over the life of the roof for a rustic, natural appearance.* Galvalume® is the successor to the Galvanized coating that has been in use since the 1800's. Galvalume® has a life expectancy of up to 9 time longer than comparable Galvanized coatings and has become the industry standard for metal roofing materials.

Galvanized is a Zinc coating that is applied to the steel substrate in a hot dip bath at the steel mill. This coating ensures corrosion resistance and long life. Galvanized has a highly reflective, silver spangled color which weathers in unique patterns over the life of the roof for a rustic, natural appearance.* Galvanized coatings are usually more reflective with a larger spangle pattern which is sometimes preferred over the more uniform Galvalume® spangle.

Paint Grip is pre-treated at the mill for subsequent painting in the as-received condition. The sheet goes through a phospatizing process which produces a deposit of hydrated zync on the galvanized surface, resulting in a dull gray appearance. This coating provides a good adherent base for painting, and also extends the life of the painted surface. Paint Grip is intended to be painted and the unfinished surface may weather unevenly*

Copper has been used in a variety of exterior applications for centuries. This unfinished material won't rust and is easy to tool. Left unfinished, copper ages with a natural patina. This is a premium material with a high cost, but it comes with time tested durability and a one of a kind look.

Aluminum and Stainless steel substrates are also available. These materials have a high resistance to corrosion and are often used in coastal areas where rust is a greater concern. Both of these substrates have a higher cost than traditional steel roofing.
