FAQ's

What is profiled metal roofing?

Profiled metal roofing uses formed steel or aluminium sheets – typically with a trapezoidal or sinusoidal profile – fixed to purlins or structural steelwork to form the roof covering of industrial, agricultural or commercial buildings. It is one of the most widely used roofing systems for warehouses, factories, distribution centres and agricultural buildings due to its speed of installation, structural performance, durability and relatively low cost. ACSAP Ltd installs profiled metal roofing and metal cladding systems across the Midlands and nationwide, with experience on industrial, commercial and bespoke specialist projects.

Profiled metal roofing refers to metal sheet systems used as the weatherproof outer skin of a roof. Metal cladding refers to metal sheet systems used on the vertical or near-vertical faces of a building – walls, fascias and architectural features. Both use similar materials and fixing methods but are detailed differently to manage water, wind and thermal movement. ACSAP installs both systems and has completed bespoke metal cladding projects including a curved aircraft bunker arch structure for Iron Mountain at Kemble – a technically demanding installation requiring fabricated panels to follow a non-standard curved geometry.

Yes, though this requires a contractor with experience in bespoke fabrication and installation. Standard profiled metal sheets are straight and are not suitable for curved surfaces without modification. ACSAP has completed bespoke metal cladding on curved architectural structures, including a specialist installation on an aircraft bunker arch at Iron Mountain, Kemble and Ashzip standing seam at Coptic Church, Solihull. This type of work requires careful measurement, panel fabrication and sequenced installation to achieve a weathertight result on a non-standard form.

A properly installed profiled metal roof using quality coated steel or aluminium sheets can last 30 to 40 years or more, depending on the coating specification, local environment and maintenance regime. Coastal or industrial environments with high levels of atmospheric pollutants or salt may reduce lifespan without appropriate coating selection. Regular inspection and prompt attention to any fixings, sealants or flashings that show signs of degradation significantly extends the life of a metal roof.

The most common roofing systems on industrial buildings in the UK are profiled metal sheeting, single ply membrane roofing, torch-on felt, structural roof decking systems and built-up felt. The appropriate system depends on the age of the building, the roof pitch, loading requirements, insulation specification and budget. ACSAP installs all of these systems and can advise on the most appropriate specification for a new build, refurbishment or re-roofing project. We also carry out planned maintenance and reactive repairs on existing industrial roofs across the Midlands.

Yes. ACSAP has an established history of working as a specialist roofing and cladding subcontractor alongside main contractors on commercial and industrial projects.
