Roofing Washington, One Home at a Time
Corrosion-proof aluminum roofing that excels on coastal Puget Sound and saltwater-exposed homes.
Aluminum roofing is the premier choice for Puget Sound homes near saltwater, where steel can eventually corrode at cut edges and fasteners. Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer and simply does not rust, making it ideal for waterfront properties along the Sound, Hood Canal, and coastal inlets. It is also notably lightweight, easing the load on older Western Washington homes while still standing up to wind and driving rain. Available in standing seam and shingle profiles, aluminum pairs long-term corrosion immunity with the finishes and looks homeowners want.
Completely rust-proof for saltwater and coastal Puget Sound exposure; very lightweight, easing structural load on older homes; excellent thermal performance and reflective coating options; long lifespan with minimal maintenance in maritime air; available in standing seam, shingle, and tile profiles
1) Assess coastal exposure, pitch, and decking condition; 2) Install synthetic underlayment with eave and valley membrane; 3) Install aluminum panels or shingles with compatible concealed fasteners; 4) Detail flashings with corrosion-matched metals then inspect

The dry summer window is best for aluminum installation on the coast and Sound, though aluminum's forgiving nature supports careful shoulder-season work.
