An Easy Installation Kit Homes: Sheet Metal Siding
Sheet metal siding is one of the cheapest yet most durable siding materials on the market today for the building of commercial structures as well as residential housing and kit homes.Installing sheet metal siding is also one of the easiest procedures since it is much lighter building material and is able to be handles without the use of construction cranes or other large equipment.Instead it can be handled with a forklift, which is much easier and much less expensive to use.
What to Expect
Sheet metal siding comes in different types of finishes so that whatever look is desired can be created with the siding, even a wood-like or stucco-like finish.In addition, sheet metal siding is made of different materials such as zinc, aluminum, copper, or steel.This also allows the user to choose the design he wants to create.There are different lengths and widths of sheet metal siding to fit any project, as well as gauges so that the individual can choose the thickness of the metal, the higher the gauges, the thinner the metal. Sheet metal panels can be installed either horizontally or vertically which can create wonderful patterns, especially when using corrugated metal which has a texture to it.
Sheet metal siding can also contain insulation so that it provides extra protection against the elements.This type of siding is called insulated metal siding or IMP.This type of siding is injected with liquid insulating foam which is usually made of polyurethane.Once the foam dries, it hardens and fills the space between the two metal sheets, providing a solid panel that is sure to provide great insulation to any structure, thus reducing heating and air conditioning costs during every season.
Sheet metal siding does expand and contract a lot with the elements, so the builder needs to be familiar with the use of this siding when attaching it to the structure to provide for that movement.Sheet metal siding usually costs somewhere around eight dollars per square foot, which is about the least expensive on the market.Although it might cost slightly more than the cheapest materials, sheet metal siding usually lasts for up to forty years and the maintenance is usually around thirty cents per square foot per year, which is significantly below other products.In addition, the siding can also be removed and reused in other projects, thus recycling the metal without additional recycling cost, thus making sheet metal siding a ‘green’ product.
