Ideal Roofing's oven-baked pre painted long-length sheets of steel panels are lighter than all other contemporary roofing materials, yet stronger, easy to install and maintain. They resist punctures, shed snow, are durable, weather tight, heat and fire-resistant and environmentally-friendly. Under normal conditions, steel panels resist chipping, cracking, peeling and perforating for 20 years while asphalt shingles are heavy, will lose their flexibility with age, will crack and become porous with time, making replacement a costly necessity after 10, 15 or 20 years.

Ideal roofing's long-length steel roofing panels are custom-cut to lengths up to 40 feet, fastened and secured from ridge cap to eave, often in one single sheet to minimize the number of seams and joints and the risk of water leakage.
