Kirkland Standing Seam Metal Roof

01 Overview

Description:

This is a Kirkland standing seam metal roof project. The home is located in the Holmes Point neighborhood at the base of Finn Hill in Kirkland along the shoreline of Lake Washington. At the initial roof measure, we found that the home had the original hot tar and gravel roof system and an older built-in gutter system. At the owner’s request, we eliminated the built-in gutter system and installed all new fascia boards around the perimeter, allowing us to install a traditional seamless K-5 gutter system. When installing a metal roof on older homes, it is important that the roof substrate is nice and level, otherwise all the inconsistencies of sagging or bad framing will be noticeable. Once the crew removed the old roofing, we executed a considerable amount of carpentry work in order to make the roof suitable for a metal roof.

Kirkland Standing Seam Metal Roof Project

Pinnacle Roofing Professionals completed this Kirkland standing seam metal roof project in the Holmes Point neighborhood at the base of Finn Hill, along the shoreline of Lake Washington. The home had the original hot tar and gravel roof system plus an older built-in gutter system. We removed the old roof, eliminated the built-in gutters, installed new fascia boards, and added a traditional seamless K-5 gutter system. We also completed significant carpentry work to level the substrate before installing the new metal roof.

Why Proper Roof Preparation Matters for Metal Roofs

Metal roofing shows every imperfection in the substrate beneath it. Sagging framing, uneven decking, or old built-in gutters can telegraph through the panels. On this Kirkland home, we addressed those issues first so the finished roof would be straight, level, and watertight.
