Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Order one piece per shingle course and set each step up-roof of the previous one, never shingle over the pan. In exposed or coastal conditions, consider the line's painted polyester enamel finishes, which carry a 40-year warranty and resist fading and chalking. Keep pieces plumb against the wall for a clean shingle course.
Metal flashing edges are sharp; wear cut-resistant gloves and follow roof fall-protection practices during installation.
Add TopShield Zincalume Step Shingles to protect every roof-to-wall transition.
