Making the Most of the Metal Opportunity

Metal roofing that won’t give up no matter what.

The Premier Metal Roof for Residential There are many metal roof options available for residential remodeling and construction, ranging from the standing seam profiles popular on northern homes and pole barns to stamped panels that emulate the look and feel of shingles and shakes. For a truly distinctive metal roof, Wimsatt stocks DECRA roofing products. DECRA’s specialty is stone coated steel

– their panels are coated with an aluminum-zinc alloy and acrylic primer, with ceramic coated stone granules set into a base coat and then coated with an overglaze to achieve a distinctive look covered by a transferable lifetime warranty. Nothing matches DECRA’s unique value proposition combining distinct aesthetics and proven durability. And as a unique premium product, you have the opportunity to earn more on every sale!

Your Commercial Connection For architects and building owners that want something unique, the color & profile variety, along with longevity and sustainability, make metal roofing an appealing alternative for commercial steep slopes and mansard roofs. With this in mind, we’re excited to offer metal roofing from ATAS International. ATAS has the resources to make your next commercial project a success - from experienced drafting and technical personnel on call to online resources for writing specifications, online submittals, and even product and color visualizers. You don’t have to do it all yourself – your Wimsatt salesperson and the experts at Atas are here to help you specify your next project!

A window into the past:

In 1986 Wimsatt Salesperson Jerry Swiney helped Larry Lesperance order Andersen windows for his whole house. Flash forward thirty years, and Larry found himself in the market for new windows. Larry called Wimsatt to see if Jerry still worked there after all these years. Sure enough, 33 year Wimsatt Veteran Jerry Swiney was still at Wimsatt! Jerry was surprised to hear Larry remembered him, and that he needed some help with ordering new Andersen Windows. Of course Jerry was happy to oblige! We’re grateful to have such loyal employees and customers!

DECRA Shingle XD offers a classic look that features a traditional distinctive style, reinforced with the strength and longevity of steel. Shingle XD's colors incorporate a subtle natural shadow, which enhances the richness and detail of the roof.

DECRA Shake XD offers the distinctive beauty and richness of cedar shake, while providing the durability and longevity of stone coated steel.

Dutch Seam is a continuous standing seam metal roof panel with an integral seam. With the lock and seam an integral part of the panel, there are no seam caps to install. This prevents “blow-off” or “creeping” of the cap or seam. Dutch Seam is a structural panel and can be fastened directly to purlins or solid substrate. Minimum 2:12 slope.

CastleTop features a diamond-shaped flat metal roof shingle for a unique roof appearance. The shingle offers easy install from eave to ridge with concealed fasteners. An expanded polystyrene backer board gives strength to allow for light foot traffic during installation. Suitable for walls, mansards, and roofs with a min slope of 3:12.

Curved Standing Seam is a convex panel with concealed clip and fastener system. The mechanically field-locked seam gives increased weathertightness. This system is available in 1-1/2" and 1" seam heights, which can be curved without or with plank ribs. Contact your rep for more information on radius capabilities.

Flexibility. SBS is a thermoplastic rubber that increases the flexibility of the shingle for longer life in the Midwest, where roofs are subject to an annual freeze/thaw cycle.

Impact Resistance. SBS Shingles defend against hail with a UL2218 Class 4 Impact Resistance Rating. This is UL’s toughest impact test; shingles show no evidence of cracks or ruptures on front or back of shingle immediately after impact.

Superior Granular Adhesion. The SBS formula creates a stronger bond with the shingle’s granules, resulting in greater retention of granules over the life of the shingle.

Insurance Discounts. SBS shingles may qualify for insurance discounts - coverage varies; homeowners should contact their insurance providers to see if they can lower their insurance costs with the use of SBS shingles.

Shingles have evolved considerably over the last 30 years. We’ve seen the transition from organic-based to fiberglass shingles, and the introduction of laminated shingles as a step up from 3-tabs. Meet the next phase of shingle evolution - SBS Shingles, made with an SBS (Styrene Butadiene Styrene) modified asphalt formula that provides rubber-like flexibility for greater weatherability and enhanced impact resistance.

New Shingle Tech In Stock:Say Yes to SBS

Don't miss an opportunity to differentiate your company. Consider taking a consultative (not hard-sell) approach and educate your client on the availability of SBS shingles which can provide a longer-lasting roof, or specialty shingles which can substantially increase the curb appeal of the home. At the very least, you’ll set your company apart from others that only submit a base quote - and at best, you could win the job based on your pitch, even if the client doesn’t go with SBS or specialty shingles.

Speciality shingles command a higher price due to their more complicated manufacturing process. They also typically have specific installation instructions that vary from standard shingle installation. These factors allow you to submit a more profitable proposal at a higher sale price that is less susceptible to price shopping.
