Exploring Metal Fabricated Products for Vancouver Properties

While wood is the classic building material for many properties, metal has been gaining popularity. From siding to flashing, metal fabricated products are some of the best materials you can use when either building a new property or sprucing up an older one. In today’s blog we will be exploring the wide variety of metal fabricated products that are available for use on Vancouver properties.

Flashing

Flashing is a home construction product designed to prevent water from entering a building. It is installed at joints or other areas where one part of the house meets another which are often at risk of water build up and therefore water damage. Flashing directs that water away from the house itself and towards channels and ducts that can safely move the water to the ground away from your home. Due to Vancouver’s wet climate, it is extremely important to direct water away from your home and flashing is one of the best ways to do it. Flashing is available in multiple styles to fit the needs of any project.

Snap-Lock Panels

Snap Lock Panels are a specialized panel system that has been designed for applications on both roofs and walls. They are designed for easy assembly, are available both with and without interior stiffening ribs and are available in a variety of colors and gauges.

Flush Wall & Soffit Panels

Flush Wall & Soffit panels are some of the flattest panels available on the market and are designed to give your project sharp and defined lines. They are designed for easy installation, are available perforated for use as soffit, are available with or without stiffening rib, are available in multiple gauges and are available in a variety of colors.

Klassic Wood Grain Panels

Klassic Woodgrain Panels are designed to give the look and appeal of wooden siding combined with the durability, easy maintenance and longevity of metal siding. They are fabricated out of 24-gauge steel and are designed to withstand Vancouver’s unique climate. They are available in several colors, are available in horizontal run or vertical run and can also be used for soffit to complete the look.

Custom Fabrication

If no other metal fabricated products fit the needs of your Vancouver property you may want to consider custom metal fabrication to do the job. Custom fabricated products can be built to precisely fit the area where they are required. These products can include things like custom chimney caps, exterior vent covers, Pittsburgh seam arch and radius flashings and custom flashing with a wide variety of uses.
