Low-pitch standing-seam metal roof over a stone home's porch, breezeway, and porte-cochère

Residential / Low slope

Porches and additions that actually stay dry.

Porte-cochères, covered patios, and modern low-pitch additions need a different roof than the field around them — we detail and install the system for that specific slope, not a shingle roof pushed past its limit.

How it’s built

Below 3:12

Standing-seam and membrane systems detailed for the slopes where standard shingle underlayment is not enough on its own.

Where roofs meet

Crickets, saddles, and transition flashing where a low-slope porch or addition ties into a steep main roof — the single most common leak point on a custom home.

Built to match

Metal profiles and colors carried over from the main roof, so the addition reads as designed, not tacked on.
