The Best Home Style Upgrade in State College: Metal Roofing For Every Type of Home
Why Standing Seam Metal is the Ultimate Style Upgrade for Your Central PA Home

Okay, let's talk about curb appeal. That feeling you get when you pull up to a house and just know it's something special. We're talking about those head-turning homes that make you stop and stare, the ones that whisper "luxury" and "style" before you even step inside. While landscaping, a fresh coat of paint, and architectural details definitely play a role, the real game-changer? The roof.
Forget those tired old shingles. Standing seam metal roofing is the style upgrade that's taking Central Pennsylvania by storm, and for good reason. It's sleek, modern, ridiculously versatile, and surprisingly adaptable, making it the perfect complement to any architectural style. At Midtech Standing Seam, our roofing goes beyond typical metal roofing to entirely customizable, stunning roof designs that match - and upgrade - any architectural style.
A Design Statement
Think of your roof as the ultimate accessory for your home. The finishing touch can either elevate your entire look or leave you feeling uninspired. With standing seam, you're not just getting a roof – you're getting a design element that can transform your home's exterior and make it the envy of the neighborhood.
- Historic Charm Meets Modern Edge: Imagine a classic brick Victorian in Bellefonte, its intricate details and timeless elegance enhanced by a standing seam roof in a rich charcoal gray or deep bronze. The contrast between the traditional architecture and the sleek, modern roof creates a captivating juxtaposition, adding a touch of contemporary sophistication while honoring the home's historic character.
- Farmhouse Fresh: With its wraparound porch and cozy vibes, a charming farmhouse deserves a stylish and durable roof. A weathered zinc or copper standing seam roof can enhance the rustic aesthetic, evoking images of rolling hills and sun-drenched fields. Picture the warm glow of the setting sun reflecting off the patina of the metal, creating a picture-perfect scene.
- Modern Minimalism: If you're all about clean lines and minimalist design, a standing seam roof in a sleek black or silver finish can amplify that contemporary look. Imagine a minimalist home with expansive windows, natural wood siding, and a striking black standing seam roof – a study in understated elegance.
- Coastal Cool: Dreaming of a beach house vibe by the lake? A light-colored standing seam roof, perhaps in a soft white or subtle gray, can evoke that breezy, coastal feel, especially when paired with white siding, natural wood accents, and expansive windows that frame the surrounding landscape.
Unique Metal Roofing Design
One of the biggest perks of standing seam? It has clean, uninterrupted lines. No more distracting shingles or tiles breaking up the visual flow. Just smooth, sleek panels that create a sense of architectural harmony. This minimalist aesthetic works wonders for any style, from traditional to contemporary, allowing the other design elements of your home to shine.
Standing seam's sleek surface provides the perfect counterpoint to a variety of exterior textures. Imagine the interplay between the smooth metal roof and the rough texture of stacked stone accents, the warmth of natural wood siding, or the classic elegance of brick. This textural contrast adds depth and visual interest to your home's exterior, creating a dynamic and engaging look.
Discover the Perfect Hue
With a wide range of colors and finishes, you can customize your standing seam roof to perfectly complement your home’s exterior palette. Whether you prefer a bold statement with a vibrant hue or a subtle approach with a muted tone, there's a standing seam option to suit your style.
Added Benefits
But standing seam isn't just a pretty face. It's also incredibly durable, able to withstand everything from heavy snow in State College to those intense summer storms in Boalsburg. So you can rest easy knowing your roof is protecting your home and looking good doing it, year after year.
And for those who care about the planet (who doesn't these days?), standing seam often incorporates recycled materials and is fully recyclable at the end of its life. Plus, it can help you save on energy bills thanks to its reflective properties. So you can feel good about your roof choice, inside and out.
