Metal Roofing

Metal roofing trades a higher upfront cost for a much longer service life, strong wind and hail performance, and lower cooling costs in Texas heat.

What is Metal Roofing?

Metal roofing costs more upfront than shingles but lasts roughly two to three times as long, handles high wind better, and reflects heat instead of absorbing it. We install standing-seam and other metal profiles in a range of finishes.

Overview

A metal roof costs more up front than composition shingles, but it’s a different value proposition: a well-installed metal roof can outlast two or three shingle roofs, handles high wind better, and reflects heat instead of absorbing it, which shows up as lower attic temperatures and, often, lower cooling bills. For homeowners planning to stay put for the long haul, or replacing a roof after storm damage and wanting to stop having this conversation every 15 years, it’s worth a serious look.

We install standing-seam and other metal profiles in a range of colors and finishes, sized and detailed to the home rather than a one-size approach.

Not with proper installation over solid decking and underlayment. The sound difference people worry about mostly applies to older, unlined metal buildings, not a residential metal roof installed correctly.

No. Metal isn’t more likely to be struck, and because it’s noncombustible, it’s a safer material in the rare case a strike does occur.

Metal costs more upfront than composition shingles, generally by a meaningful margin, but the lifespan and durability change the long-run math. We’ll walk through real numbers for your roof.

Many carriers offer discounts for impact-resistant roofing, and metal often qualifies. Ask your carrier directly, or ask us and we’ll help you find out.
