Metal roofing is relatively lightweight, has a strong architectural appeal and is very durable.  Metal roofing is available in many colors and styles.  Metal roof systems are traditionally divided into two categories: architectural and structural.  Architectural metal systems are installed over solid decking with a felt underlayment beneath the panel.  This system offers more support for the metal panel and provides an extra layer of moisture protection.  Structural metal systems span from joist to joist without a solid decking or felt underlayment.
