As interest in residential metal roofing grows, builders and homeowners are looking for ways to bring standing seam into new construction while keeping material costs in check. This residence shows how the finish can help strike that balance. First Choice Exteriors used Coated Metals Group’s Textur3D Matte Black, a value-minded finish that gives the home the clean lines and subdued sheen of a matte metal roof.
The standing seam panels carry a consistent look from the main house to the entry canopy and three-bay garage. The seams draw the eye along the intersecting gables, while the matte black finish complements the dark siding and contrasts with the light stonework and natural wood at the entry.
Finish selection is one way to manage material costs while keeping standing seam in the plans. CMG’s Textur3D uses a textured SMP coating that gives the steel a tactile surface and diffuses reflected light. That helps make oil canning, the visible waviness that can occur in the flat areas of metal panels, less noticeable. It’s an especially useful feature on a roof like this one, where broad roof planes face different directions and catch sunlight at different angles.
Textur3D gives builders a cost-conscious option for a matte finish across the full roof. CMG’s finish warranty provides up to 40 years of film integrity, ensuring long-lasting performance on your metal roof
