Roofing for Non-Code Projects

The worker puts roofing material in the open air

Not every building needs to meet strict residential or commercial codes. Across farms, worksites and backyards, outbuildings like sheds, barns and storage structures require durable roofing, but not at the same price point as a house or office. For these projects, B-Grade roofing provides a cost-effective solution that gets the job done without straining the budget.

What Makes B-Grade Roofing Different

B-Grade roofing includes shingles, panels and rolls with minor cosmetic imperfections. These issues—such as shade variation, blemishes, or irregular thickness—don’t affect performance but keep the materials from qualifying for warranties or residential/commercial code applications.

For non-code projects like outbuildings, storage facilities or agricultural structures, B-Grade roofing is a smart way to save money without sacrificing weather protection.

A Reliable Supply of Roofing Materials

We supply B-Grade roofing inventory, with wholesale semi-truckload quantities regularly diverted from landfills. Options in vinyl, metal, synthetic, asphalt and more can be sourced to meet contractor specifications. By using this surplus, buyers not only save on material costs but also keep usable products in circulation.

Asphalt Shingles

Types include architectural, 3-tab, hip and ridge, and starter strips.

Our B-Grade shingles have minor defects such as color variations or aesthetic imperfections. These are ideal for non-warranty-required projects like barns, sheds and temporary installations.

Rolled Roofing

Types include cap and base, torch down, mop, self-adhesive peel & stick, ice and water, and felt.

B-Grade rolled roofing may show shade variation or surface imperfections, but they are fully functional. They are commonly used on non-code projects where warranties are not required.

Metal Roofing

Types include corrugated and galvanized.

Our B-Grade panels may have shade differences or slight variations in thickness. These materials work well for barns, agricultural outbuildings, and other non-code projects.

Why B-Grade Roofing Makes Sense

Cost savings are the primary advantage. Non-code projects often cover large square footage—think machine sheds, hay barns or multi-bay storage facilities. Using B-Grade roofing dramatically reduces your material spend.

Availability is another benefit. With truckload and less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping options, our customers can order exactly what they need for each phase of a project. This flexibility is particularly useful for agricultural or industrial operations where storage space is limited.

And because we source roofing materials regularly, contractors can count on a steady supply of B-Grade options, reducing the risk of delays.

Where Not to Use B-Grade

While B-Grade roofing is perfect for outbuildings and non-code applications, it shouldn’t be used for homes, businesses or any project where code compliance and warranty coverage are required.

The Takeaway

For non-code projects, B-Grade roofing offers reliable weather protection at a price point that makes sense. From sheds and barns to garages and seasonal structures, these materials provide function without excess cost. With asphalt shingles, rolled roofing and metal panels available in both truckload and LTL quantities, contractors and property owners can source the right roofing for the right job.
