What the Photograph Shows

The photograph shows 26-gauge Galvalume standing-seam panels on this Lecanto roof. The raised vertical seams are the defining feature of the system — the primary panel fasteners sit hidden beneath those seams instead of being exposed to the weather.

The result is a clean, uninterrupted finished appearance with no rows of visible screw heads across the panels.

How Standing Seam Differs From Exposed-Fastener Metal

Exposed-fastener metal panels are screwed directly through the face of the panel. They cost less up front, but the screws and washers need to be monitored over time for backing out and washer deterioration.

Standing seam is a premium concealed-fastener system. Destination Roofing's most common standing-seam configuration is snap lock with a concealed screw strip, depending on the roof design and manufacturer requirements. Other options include snap-lock panels with clips and mechanically seamed panels.

Gauge refers to the thickness of the steel — this project used 26-gauge. For standing-seam residential systems, Destination Roofing generally recommends approximately 24-gauge material depending on engineering, manufacturer, and project requirements, and we discuss gauge options with each homeowner.

Installation Details That Matter

Under metal roofing, Destination Roofing installs high-temperature peel-and-stick underlayment. Trim and flashing are installed as new components integrated with the panel system at eaves, gables, ridges, valleys, and walls.
