Oregon Music Garage: How to Install Snap Loc Standing Seam Metal Roofing
In this episode of Oregon Music Garage, I show you guys the step by step process how to install snap loc standing seam metal roofing. This is about as simple of a roof as it gets. I will do my best to continue to add standing seam metal trim details as we do them. This video can be a starting point if you want to install metal roofing.
The Swenson Pro Snap Table is a legit tool, but obviously expensive for the average DIY metal roofing person. If you are however making a career out of this type of work, it is an amazing piece of equipment. It will really shine thru when we have to install our standing seam metal roofing on our hip roofs when we build our porches so stay tuned!

How much do you charge for a roof on a 900 square foot house?
Thanks Kyle! Really helpful videos. Love that your doing this correctly

What’s the name of the song you used at the end of the video
Big Thanks! A two-for-Sunday!
Film Greg’s reaction when you show him adoption papers
Greg is so brave for walking on that wobbly building, especially after being singled out 🙂
I think it’s cause the camera is on the lift that it looks like the building wables
Kyle, I’ve been cringing as I watch you use your hand/fist as a hammer. By the time I was in my mid 40s, my hands were toast from pushing chisels, Yankee screw drivers (the original cordless automatic screw driver) and tapping pieces together. The arthritis and nerve damage required I massage my hands under warm water every morning so I can go to work or just hold a pencil or breakfast spoon. Now, at 65, I have trigger finger and trigger thumb from tendon inflammation and tendon sheath trauma. My thumbs and little fingers catch and lock as I close them. I’ve had cortisone injections and finally surgery that failed after 6 months. I can’t hold a pen to sign my name without massaging my hand first. I take 2 grams of aspirin a day just so my hands are minimally functional. I know too many men my age with similar grizzled hands.
Please, carry a rubber mallet and save your hands. They are your livelihood. The precision work you do with them is amazing.
thank you for the advice ill probably never punch a piece of lumber again
I’ve never seen or heard of this until reading your comment. Wow, sorry to hear. Thanks for sharing, good advice.
Wisdom speaks.
Absolutely this. I’m 31 and I’ve got significant nerve damage along with tendonitis, carpal tunnel and recurring ganglion cysts. All but the cysts are some degree of overuse injury and the classic hand as a hammer thing and it’s insanely debilitating. I’ve been working with my hands my whole life and it gets harder every year.
Death by a thousand cuts. Kyle and Greg, listen to this advice.
Double upload? Am I dreaming?!?! Hit that like button y’all
the building didn’t sway as much after the derecho. ( hope this helps with the over/under bet)
The thumbnail looks crazy on a mobile screen when you scroll. Like one of those optical illusions, the metal almost crawls up the screen.
I would of just started a 1/2″ in to keep full panels
Okay, so this looked like fun work and so rewarding when looking it over.
Extended version… “yeah OK Kyle, the building is moving” just because you mentioned it.
Looks beautiful and you two make it look easy! I love the look of standing seam….wish they did more here in California. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing the videos!
I dunno Kyle, I really thought once those WeatherLogic panels were on all that swaying would stop.
Might need to get the boy Greg a mic. Need to hear the other end of the banter!
I tried pressing the seam in place by stepping on it once and I flattened it out had to bend it back up??
Kyle and Gregg, keep up the great work!
Great video. Thank you for taking the time to explain everything. Looms great as always.
I have lived thru the transition from imperial to metric (measurement bilingual). There is no way anyone would use imperial if they knew metric….
Always loved the show, but your camera placement at times makes me SEA SICK. Are there other options?
Ranger Bands or Bike Inner Tube should also protect the work surface when using your hand seamer.
Can you install solar panels on the snap lock roof, if so how?
