Continuous Panel Roof
Faribault, MN

Southern Minnesota weather throws a bit of everything at your home. From heavy winter snowpacks to severe spring thunderstorms and high winds, a roof in Rice County needs to withstand intense seasonal shifts.

A continuous panel metal roof provides a clean, modern aesthetic while offering a high level of leak protection for local homes and agricultural buildings.

The Advantage of On-Site Roll Forming

Unlike standard roofing materials that arrive in pre-cut pieces, continuous metal roofing is fabricated right at your property. Bringing roll-forming equipment directly to the job site allows for the creation of single, unbroken panels that run from the ridge of your roof all the way down to the eave.

This continuous design addresses the most common issues associated with traditional roofs:

  • Zero Horizontal Seams: Standard shingles or short metal panels have overlapping seams where water can get trapped. Continuous panels completely eliminate these horizontal joints, removing a primary cause of roof leaks.

  • Excellent Snow Shedding: Faribault winters bring heavy, wet snow that can cause ice dams. The smooth, uninterrupted surface allows snow to slide off quickly, preventing weight and moisture buildup.

  • Thermal Movement: Metal expands and contracts with Minnesota's extreme temperature swings. Continuous panel systems handle this movement naturally without putting stress on the fasteners.

Local Property Tip: Because continuous metal roofing sheds snow rapidly, it is highly recommended to install heavy-duty snow guards above garage doors, walkways, and HVAC units to protect your property and family below.
