New England Net-Positive Home Pairs Sustainability with Timeless Metal Roofing

In a quiet New England town, a newly completed custom residence is redefining what it means to build for the future. Not just designed for net-zero performance, this home goes a step further — producing more energy than it consumes. It blends modern efficiency with architectural elegance, all anchored by a standing seam metal roof from Englert.

The homeowner focused on long-term energy efficiency and minimal maintenance; knew his roofing choice would be critical. He sought a system that would not only elevate the home’s appearance but also play an active role in its energy performance. Englert’s standing seam roof was the ideal solution — offering exceptional durability, compatibility with solar, and timeless curb appeal.

More than a design element, the Englert roof is a key contributor to the home’s performance. The Englert A1300 metal roof panel’s sleek profile supports a full solar array used on the sloped roof sections while providing weather resistance and a long service life. Made with recycled content and built to last, the roof helps minimize environmental impact without compromising aesthetics.

In addition, Englert’s RainPro gutter system was installed to manage water runoff efficiently while enhancing the home’s clean, modern look. Combining the capacity of a 6-inch gutter with the sleek profile of a 5-inch, RainPro features heavy-gauge aluminum, concealed hangers for added strength, and a ScratchGuard™ paint finish available in a range of designer colors — all backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

The home features a high-performance envelope with continuous exterior insulation, triple-pane windows, and a tightly sealed structure. All-electric systems, including a heat pump HVAC and water heating, as well as ERVs operate with high efficiency — powered largely by the energy produced on the roof.

Every component of the home was selected with care, from Roseburg engineered framing materials to advanced air-sealing strategies. The result is a home that stays comfortable year-round while keeping energy consumption to a minimum.

Now part of Great Day Improvements, Englert continues to support projects like this with top-tier roofing products that combine performance and beauty. Backed by one of the nation’s fastest-growing home improvement companies, Englert brings homeowners added peace of mind through trusted expertise and national reach.

The standing seam metal roof stands out not only for its sleek lines and modern finish, but for its role in delivering a high-performance, future-ready home. As demand for energy-efficient living grows, this project is a powerful example of how thoughtful design and proven materials — like those from Englert — can help homeowners meet today’s goals while planning for tomorrow.
