Metal Roofing in San Clemente, California

The salt air and the ocean breeze make metal a smart choice in San Clemente. The standing seam panels resist the corrosion and the wind, and they last for decades. Metal roofing in San Clemente installs the roof that outlasts the asphalt and shrugs off the coast.

Why Metal Roofing Suits San Clemente

• The salt air resistance — the coated metal resists the coastal corrosion
• The wind resistance — the standing seam panels hold through the ocean breeze
• The water shedding — the panels shed the winter rain fast
• The long life — the metal lasts 40 to 50 years versus the 25 for the asphalt
• The low maintenance — the metal needs little beyond the annual inspection

How We Install Metal Roofs in San Clemente

1. Prepare the roof — the tear-off and the deck inspection
2. Install the underlayment — the synthetic felt and the ice-and-water shield at the eaves
3. Install the metal flashing — the corrosion-resistant drip edge, valleys, and wall flashing
4. Install the panels — the standing seam panels in the manufacturer’s pattern
5. Crimp the seams — the machine-crimped seams lock the panels together
6. Install the ridge and the trim — the ridge cap and the gable trim finish the roof

Preventing Roof Problems in San Clemente

• Check the seams each spring — the crimped seams need the inspection
• Check the metal for the salt corrosion — the coastal air corrodes the unprotected metal
• Check the flashings and the penetrations — the metal moves with the temperature
• Check the gutters — the metal roof sheds the water fast

Expert tip: in San Clemente, the standing seam metal with the coated finish is the best choice for the coast. It resists the salt, holds in the wind, and lasts 40 to 50 years. The bare metal corrodes in the salt air.
