Metal Roof

Hey guys,

I'm about to have a sub install a standing seam metal roof on a house. Buying the metal from Englert. The Englert people tell me 24 gage is standard. You guys had any experience with Englert material or with using 24 gage sheet metal on 1 1/2" standing seam? Any feedback or info appreciated!

Thanks,
Kermmonk

Re: Metal Roof

You want to use 24 gauge. 29 is way to flimsy and will bend expectably if you laying long pieces. I have never used Englert.
