Metal Roofing done right.

Metal repairs are the ones homeowners have the most questions about, so here is how they really go. 5V panels are the easiest. We back the screws out, work the area, and put the panels back. The problem is almost always at a penetration, a vent or a pipe, or at a transition where two planes of roof meet. Standing seam takes a bit more. Mechanically seamed systems take more again.

All of it is doable. What makes metal repairs cost more than they look is care. The panels have to come off and go back on without damage so they can be reused, and the area around the repair has to stay untouched. That means going slower, and slower on a roof is what you pay for. When you call us about a metal leak you get an honest read on which system you have, what the repair involves, and a price for the repair next to a price for replacement, so you can decide with the whole picture.

Getting the look right

Metal has the potential for the most beautiful finish of any roof, and it lasts. It is also the roof where the details make or break the result. A metal roof is a hundred small decisions, and what a crew considers good enough is what you end up living with. So on metal, the contractor's experience installing it and supervising it is the whole game.

If you have a specific look in mind, bring the pictures. How you want the roof to meet the wall. How a particular profile turns a corner. How to keep a flat panel from oil canning, which on a flat pan means backer rod behind the panel so it stays true. Those are details that take know-how, and they are exactly the kind of thing to talk through before the first panel goes up. We tailor the install to what you are picturing, because that is what people choose metal for.
