A quality metal roof is designed to move. ↔️
As temperatures change, panels naturally expand and contract. Paired with Roof Hugger® retrofit systems, BPD floating clips allow that movement while reducing stress, protecting performance, and extending roof life for decades. 🗓️
Innovation starts with solving real-world challenges.
Roof Hugger®'s Curved Sub-Rafter is engineered for curved metal roofs, reducing purlin spacing to help new roof panels meet code while preserving the benefits of a metal-over-metal retrofit.
Built for performance.
☀️ Summer heat increases energy costs—but the right roofing system can help. Roof Hugger® retrofit systems create space for added insulation, reducing heat transfer, lowering HVAC demand, improving efficiency, and cutting long-term operating costs.

A successful retrofit starts with the right system—and ends with the right roof!
Roof Hugger's engineered sub-purlins provide the structural foundation, while a new metal roof delivers the durability, weather protection, and long-term performance building owners can count on.
🎥 Decades of engineering, testing, and real-world validation set Roof Hugger® apart.
Our metal-over-metal retrofit systems are backed by proven data—not assumptions—and engineered for your building's unique conditions to improve structural performance and long-term resilience.
The best measure of performance isn't what we say—it's what our customers say.
Thank you to Edward J. Laperouse and the team at Metal Works, Inc. for your continued trust. We're proud to be your partner in delivering proven metal-over-metal retrofit solutions.
Not all retrofit systems are built the same. ⚠️
Roof Hugger's engineered, tested sub-purlin systems create a code-compliant foundation for a new standing seam roof. Proven on over 100 million sq. ft. of metal roofing because performance starts beneath the panels.
🌪️ Hurricane season is coming. Is your roof ready?
A Roof Hugger® retrofit system does more than replace an aging roof—it creates a structurally engineered assembly that improves wind uplift performance, strengthens the building, and helps prepare it for the next storm.
Retrofit is simple—until code compliance enters the picture. Especially in places like Florida.
Roof Hugger removes the complexity by handling the engineering and compliance, so contractors can deliver durable, high-performing, cost-effective roofing solutions with confidence.
🔎💡 Project Spotlight: White Cap Supply – Tampa, FL
Roof Hugger's metal-over-metal retrofit delivered a new code-compliant standing seam roof in just 3 weeks—without tear-off or interrupting operations. Less waste, greater strength, and decades of added performance.
Older metal buildings aren't outdated—they're opportunities. 🏢 A properly engineered retrofit roof can improve performance, meet today's codes, support solar, and extend building life. Sometimes the best investment isn't building new—it's upgrading what you already have.
High winds don't test roof panels—they test the entire roofing system. 🌪️
Roof Hugger helps create a reliable load path that transfers wind uplift forces into the building structure for enhanced performance and long-term retrofit value. 🏢

A retrofit roof isn’t just layers—it’s a system. 🏢🔩
Real performance comes from how every component works together under stress—not from one part that simply “looks stronger.”
That’s why Roof Hugger systems are engineered and backed by proven full-system testing.
