In October 2026, Pinnacle Roofing Professionals, LLC completed a residential standing seam metal roof replacement in the Wilburton neighborhood of Bellevue, WA, installing Nu-Ray Metals NRM-2000 24-gauge standing seam panels in Charcoal Gray. This Wilburton / Bellevue metal roof replacement also included significant attic ventilation upgrades and a new cut-in, framed skylight to bring more natural daylight into the home.

The Challenge: Bellevue Weather and the Case for a Permanent Roof
Homes in the Wilburton neighborhood and across Bellevue face the full Pacific Northwest lineup: months of rain, long stretches of damp weather, occasional snow and ice, and summer heat that pushes attic temperatures upward. The owners of this home wanted a roofing system built to handle that climate for the long term, better attic airflow to manage moisture and heat, and more natural light inside the home — all handled by a single contractor.
The Solution: Nu-Ray Metals NRM-2000 Standing Seam Panels
For this metal roofing replacement, we installed Nu-Ray Metals NRM-2000 24-gauge standing seam panels in Charcoal Gray. NRM-2000 panels combine structural panel strength with architectural aesthetics, and their concealed-fastener, floating clip system lets the panels move with normal thermal expansion and contraction while keeping the roof weathertight year after year.
Key NRM-2000 panel characteristics, per the manufacturer: a 1.50″ tall rib design, 12″ and 16″ panel widths, floating clips spaced 18″ on center, a minimum roof pitch of 1/2:12, and availability in 24- and 26-gauge steel. The panels are also solar ready and snow retention ready, and Nu-Ray’s premium finish systems carry finish warranties of up to 50 years.
Why Standing Seam Metal Makes Sense in the Pacific Northwest
Standing seam metal roofing is one of the most durable and low-maintenance options for Bellevue homes:
- Sheds water and snow — Tall seams and smooth panel faces move rain and melting snow off the roof quickly, with fewer places for water to sit compared with individual shingles.
- Concealed fasteners — The floating clip system hides fasteners from the weather, reducing leak points and maintenance over the life of the roof.
- Decades of service life — A properly installed 24-gauge standing seam roof is a long-term investment, backed by manufacturer finish warranties of up to 50 years.
- Low maintenance — Metal panels resist rot, cracking, and impact damage far better than most other roofing materials.
- Energy-conscious finishes — Modern finish systems with reflective pigment technology can help reduce heat gain in the summer months.
Full System Upgrades: Ventilation and a New Cut-In Skylight
A roof replacement is the right time to upgrade the whole building envelope. Along with the new standing seam metal roof, this Wilburton project included:
- Significant ventilation upgrades — We upgraded the attic ventilation system to move air efficiently through the attic space. Balanced airflow helps vent out moisture that collects during Bellevue’s wet winters — reducing the risk of condensation on the roof deck and framing — and helps push out attic heat in the summer, easing the load on the home’s cooling.
- A new cut-in, framed skylight — At the owners’ request, we cut in and framed an additional skylight. That means structural framing between rafters, properly supported, with the skylight flashed and integrated into the new standing seam metal roof so daylight comes in and Northwest rain stays out.
Metal roofing is nothing new to Pinnacle. We’ve been installing Nu-Ray metal roofing systems for more than a decade, and our commitment to craftsmanship and quality earned us a feature on the cover of Metal Roofing Magazine. 2016 Ed.
That same standard is on display in this Wilburton installation, featuring Charcoal Gray NRM-2000 standing seam panels, a ventilation system designed for decades of Pacific Northwest weather, and a newly framed skylight for the homeowners.
Built for performance. Finished with precision. Built the Pinnacle way.
