Frequently asked questions
What to know before choosing BTR.
What is BTR metal tile roofing?
It is a modular steel-panel roof covering formed to create the dimensional appearance of traditional tile. The panels are installed as part of a complete assembly that also includes the roof deck, underlayment, fastening, flashing, hips, ridges and perimeter details.
Which BTR products currently have the referenced Miami-Dade NOA?
Miami-Dade NOA 23-1221.03 identifies Estima and Tremblant/German Simetric roof panels. Other BTR profiles should not be represented as covered by that NOA unless their own current approval is verified.
Can BTR metal tile be installed on every South Florida home?
No. Suitability depends on the roof slope, deck, geometry, calculated pressures, selected fastening option, existing conditions, jurisdiction and all limitations in the applicable approval.
Is BTR metal tile the same as clay or concrete tile?
No. It is a steel panel system designed to create a tile-like architectural profile. Its weight, attachment, detailing and maintenance considerations differ from conventional clay and concrete tile systems.
Does BTR metal tile guarantee insurance savings?
No. Permits, inspections and product documents may help an insurance professional evaluate the completed property, but eligibility, credits and premiums are determined by the carrier and policy.
How can I receive accurate pricing?
Start with the roofing estimator and schedule a property review. Pricing depends on roof measurements, geometry, tear-off, deck condition, profile and finish selection, assembly requirements, flashings, permitting and related scope.
