Colored Metal for Coastal Applications

Planning for beautiful, permanent architectural solutions on the coast is difficult. A lot of those adjectives conjure up metal roof and wall systems and a lot of metals and finishes experience issues along shorelines with aggressive, salty atmospheres.

There are plenty of metal roof and wall options at different budget levels and offering different effects. One of our favorites is marine grade aluminum with a special marine grade paint over top. The particular beauty of this option, is you can have virtually any color you envision custom matched for this system.

Marine grade paint manufacturers use a slightly different process in the recipe and application of their paints than standard PVDF finishes. To guarantee the color matches exactly, they’ll create a swatch based off of your submission and will send if over for your review. In our experience, it always looks perfect, and if you agree, your signature on the swatch locks in the order and you are rewarded with a look all your own with the added benefit of a longer life on the coast than a standard substrate and paint would offer.

This project is located mere steps from the water. The owner chose absolutely beautiful Hemlock Green as their color and we manufactured the diamond shingles to finish off this tasteful, stylish home. We absolutely love how it turned out!

Need help choosing which options will work best for your home or building on the coast? Planning on a metal roof or wall cladding application? Give us a call today and we’ll get you all the answers you need to help you get the look and permanence you’re after.
