At Echelon Builders, we are committed to building homes that stand the test of time. Our approach centers on using superior materials, applying expert building practices, and ensuring our homes are energy-efficient and durable. A key aspect of this commitment is our choice to use Prefa Metal Roofing for new homes, providing sustainable roofing built for longevity in new home construction.


We feature Prefa Metal Roofing in our Smithfield, RI build because it is a premium, sustainable roofing solution designed for longevity. Made from lightweight aluminum, it weighs far less than traditional shingle roofing, and its advanced coil-coating system ensures exceptional resistance to weathering and temperature changes. This means there’s nothing to disintegrate or deteriorate over time, making it the ideal choice for long-lasting protection. We choose this because it is durable and maintenance free provides sustainability and longevity as well as superior craftsmanship. All things we aim for at Echelon builders. 


With a fully interlocking system that creates a waterproof barrier, requiring zero maintenance. It features a sealed ice and water application that extends all the way to the ridge for complete coverage. It has a 40-year color guarantee and the fact that it is 100% recyclable, Prefa Metal Roofing supports both environmental sustainability and long-term value. We hand-roll each metal roofing panel on-site using a precise, seamless installation process. This ensures perfect alignment and a flawless final product. The panels are 25 feet long, rolled to the exact lengths needed for the job, with double-lock seams that ensure no water intrusion—no fasteners are used, just crimped seams for maximum reliability.

Overall Prefa Metal Roofing and siding allows us to build with efficiency and craftsmanship creating a sleek standing metal roof and siding with a seamless modern look that is refined and durable. Metal roofing and siding tends to cost a little bit more but creates a zero maintenance solution that also has a much longer life span, no interruptions to day to day life and more confidence in your home. If a traditional asphalt shingle roof lasts 30 years, a metal roof will last 100 years easily. One roof. One bill. One time. That means less worry and more value and resale value, build it right once and don’t worry about it in the future.
