There are several styles of metal roofing available including standing seam, aluminum shingle, and stone coated. Another group of metal roof designs that often gets overlooked falls under the ribbed and corrugated metal styles. PBR, PBM, and corrugated metal roofs offer a unique styling and durable alternative to conventional roofing options.
An investment in a metal roof could last you a lifetime.
If you are considering a metal roof for your Arizona home, you will want to look into these styles and keep reading this article! Craven Construction has over 20 years in the roofing industry and installing quality metal roofs.
PBR
Short for Purlin Bearing Rib, these panels offer a great option for metal roofing. PBR panels are low-maintenance while still providing substantial protection against the elements. These panels are identified by a purlin-bearing leg that overlaps between the panels. This will yield a stronger connection and seal out moisture & wind, which can wreak havoc on a metal roof if allowed below the surface.
PBM
Another style of ribbed metal roofing is PBM. This is an incredibly popular choice of metal roofing because it offers a cost-effective, energy-efficient, and durable option. You may recognize these roofing panels by their low profiles, but still maintain the classic metal roof aesthetic. PBM roofs are offered in a 26-gauge metal so you can trust your home to be well protected from the elements.
Corrugated Metal
Metal panels that are as versatile as they are stylish, corrugated metal offers an incredible option for your new metal roof. Corrugated metal is easily identified by its ⅞” ridges and grooves. This gives these metal roofs incredible strength structurally and incredibly impact-resistant. It also offers a more natural look for your home as the metal will rust organically and give off a warm feeling. Corrugated metal is only offered in a 22-gauge panel thickness.
Benefits of ribbed & corrugated metal
- Versatility – Metal panels are incredibly versatile and can be used in many different ways. Because these metal roofing panels are very versatile, they can fit just about any home and aesthetic. Many metal roofs can also be customized while maintaining their durability.
- High Performance – Ribbed and corrugated metal roofs offer excellent performance, especially for Arizona and the intense amount of sunshine. You can be confident that your new metal roof will not only protect your home but for many years to come.
- Longevity – As we just discussed, ribbed and corrugated metal roofs are incredibly durable. This helps to ensure a long life expectancy, sometimes upwards of 50 years!
- Energy Efficient – These metal roofing styles also offer excellent energy efficiency. An investment in a new metal roof will help you save on your monthly energy bills. Coatings can further help with energy efficiency so be sure to discuss with your local roofer about your options.
Cost Effective
The most important item to note about ribbed and corrugated metal roofs is they are the most cost-effective metal roofing material available. You do not need to sacrifice durability for a smaller price tag. If you like the style and design of a metal roof, consider a PBR, PBM, or corrugated metal roof. You will be happy with the results, low maintenance, and lower price tag.
