The Most Efficient Metal Roofing Tools for Standing Seam Roofs

When you’re installing a standing seam roof, efficiency, consistency and quality are key. Time is money in this business, and roofing contractors often find themselves wasting valuable man-hours on sub-par tools that produce inconsistent results. When it comes to the most efficient tools for standing seam metal roof installation, the best choice by far is the SnapTable PRO. Let’s take a look at some of the qualities of this powerful combination that help roofers operate more efficiently.

SnapTable PRO: Three Standing Seam Roofing Tools in One

The SnapTable PRO is actually three standing seam tools in one: a panel cutter, a standing seam notcher, and an eave and valley hemmer, all mounted on the same towable chassis. This eliminates the need to haul multiple heavy tools to your job site, simplifying your workflow. In addition, the SnapTable PRO allows you to handle all your roof panel preparation of your metal roof system from a single workstation — and it’s compatible for use with all types of standing seam metal roof panels, so you don’t need different tools for different types of projects. One tool does it all — which is the very definition of efficiency.

Only One Roofer is Needed to Prepare a Metal Panel on a SnapTable PRO

The more skilled laborers you have on the job site, the higher your costs. Gone are the days of needing to hire a full team to notch, cut and hem your standing seam metal panels. The SnapTable PRO is designed for one-person operation, which means you can assign a single worker to prepare and cut all your standing seam metal panels. This can potentially reduce the number of workers you need on one job site — or even enable you to take on more jobs at once.

User-Friendly Metal Roofing Panel Tools Improve Overall Team Efficiency

If you have a trainee or apprentice helping at the worksite, the SnapTable PRO is a great way to use them. Its user-friendly design means even a novice can prepare and cut high-quality standing seam metal roofing panels, allowing you to put your more skilled workers on the roof where they belong.

Get Consistent, High-Quality Standing Seam Panels

The traditional method of manually notching, cutting and hemming standing seam panels often creates inconsistencies — even with the most skilled teams in place. The SnapTable PRO virtually eliminates this issue. Its unique design enables to you prepare standing seam metal roofing panels with factory precision, without the need for tin snips. And you’ll have confidence that every panel will be cut to exact specifications.

Save Time on Standing Seam Metal Roofing Jobs

Manual preparation of roofing materials like standing seam metal roof panels can be time-consuming, even for a skilled team specializing in standing seam roofing. By contrast, with the SnapTable PRO, your team of roofers can turn out a complete, factory-precise panel in seconds versus minutes. You’ll spend far less time (and money) on the preparation process so you can focus your efforts on installation. And because you’re not dealing with the inconsistencies involved with manual prep of standing seam systems, you’ll save time on installation, as well.
