Board and Batten Metal Roofing
Board and batten metal roofing panels stand out from other roofing options due to their distinctive design, versatility, and timeless aesthetic. Originally inspired by traditional wooden siding, these panels combine classic charm with the modern advantages of metal.
The defining feature of board and batten panels is their alternating wide “board” and narrow “batten” patterns. This unique design creates strong vertical lines that add dimension and character to a building, making them ideal for both modern and rustic architectural styles. Unlike other metal panels with flat or ribbed profiles, board and batten panels emphasize texture and visual interest.
Functionally, these panels are incredibly durable and weather-resistant. The overlapping batten sections enhance water tightness by covering the seams, offering additional protection against leaks compared to flat or corrugated panels. Their vertical installation style also promotes efficient water runoff, making them well-suited for areas with heavy rain or snow.
Available in a variety of colors and finishes, board and batten panels allow for a high level of customization, enabling them to complement diverse design preferences. While they share the low-maintenance, long-lasting benefits of other metal roofing options, their distinctive appearance and superior performance set them apart as a stylish and reliable choice.
A metal roof is a roofing system featuring metal pieces or tiles exhibiting corrosion resistance, impermeability to water, and long life. It is a component of the building envelope. The metal pieces may be a covering on a structural, non-waterproof roof, or they could be self-supporting sheets.
