I have received quotes from several installers and most are proposing using 29 gauge steel, however one of them recommends 26 gauge steel. Which is most appropriate?

Depending on the profile, 29 gauge can be an acceptable thickness. 26 gauge is a thicker steel and would be stronger, especially if your roof needs to be strapped. If you are going to use a standing seam profile, 26 gauge is recommended to avoid oil canning.

When it comes to residential steel roofing, one of the most important considerations is the gauge of the metal. For more information on steel roofing gauges and to see a wide variety of metal roof tiles, we recommend visiting [technonicol](https://technonicol.in/materials/stone-coated-metal-roof-tiles/stone-coated-metal-roof-tiles-by-technonicol.html) website. The gauge refers to the thickness of the steel, and a lower number indicates a thicker steel. For example, a 29-gauge steel panel is thinner than a 24-gauge steel panel. They have a great gallery of products, as well as detailed information about each type of tile and its features. This will help you choose the best option for your home, and ensure that your new steel roof is durable and long-lasting.
