Re-RoofingBerridge VANTAGE POINT Flat Roof Home RemodelMore Than Just a New RoofIt's a New LookBerridge VANTAGE POINT reroofing system combines a new aesthetic look with simple mechanical attachment over existing flat built-up roofs that will last for years to come. VANTAGE POINT is more than just a re-roof solutionit's a permanent new roof with a new, higher profile giving your old building a totally new look. The sloped, light weight, self supporting metal panels need no substrate, thus avoiding extra weight and cost. They provide a watertight standing seam that sheds water in contrast to dated, flat built-up roofs which are subject to water ponding and subsequent leakage. Economical InstallationNo Tear-Off Required
The installer orders all necessary coil material and components and all pre-cut retrofit roof system framing members from Berridge. Retrofit Design Checklist for Architects & DesignersRoof Design: Low slope to steep mansard profile. Intersecting planes such as hips, dormer and valleys should be kept to a minimum. Penetrations: Minimize penetrations such as skylights, curbs for roof-mounted heating or air-conditioning units, etc. Thermal & Mechanical ConsiderationsInsulation: The space between the old and new roof allows for low cost, blanket insulation to greatly reduce heating and cooling costs. Vapor Barrier (if required): A vinyl vapor barrier on the underside of the blanket insulation avoids condensation from the building penetrating insulation and reaching the framing system and roof panels. Mechanical Equipment: Any existing and new mechanical equipment should be located at ground level to reduce penetrations. Ventilation: The new attic space can be vented with ridge vents or louvers. Thermal Movement: Accommodated at the eaves and with inner rib expansion joints. ...Return to the Berridge Metal Standing Seam Homepage...Learn more about color choices for metal roofing at Berridge Colors...Discover the many selections of Berridge Metal Roof Types |
