Metal Roofing
Metal Roofing Built for 50+ Years
Standing seam and stamped metal roofs cost more up front but last two to three times longer than asphalt, cut cooling bills, and can lower your insurance premium. For farmhouses, modern homes, and outbuildings, metal is often the right long-term call.
Why homeowners switch to metal
Asphalt roofs fail. Metal roofs don't — not for 50+ years. If you plan to stay in your home long-term, metal is often the cheaper option per year of use.
- Replacing asphalt every 20–25 years is getting expensive
- Wind and hail cause repeat insurance claims on asphalt
- Farmhouse or country home with multiple outbuildings needing matched roofing
- Modern architectural style calls for standing seam
- High cooling bills from a hot attic
- Fire-rated roof required for outbuildings near structures

Frequently Asked Questions
Is metal roofing loud in the rain?
No — modern metal roofs over solid decking with underlayment sound the same as asphalt from inside. The 'noisy metal roof' idea comes from open-frame barn roofs.
Will a metal roof rust?
Modern painted steel and aluminum systems carry 30–50 year finish warranties. In our climate, expect zero visible rust for the life of the roof.
Does metal roofing attract lightning?
No — this is a myth. Metal actually disperses lightning strikes safely and is non-combustible if hit.
Can you match my house roof to my barn?
Yes — same color, same profile if you want. We regularly do coordinated multi-building color-matched jobs.
Does metal qualify for insurance discounts?
Often yes. Class 4 hail-rated metal typically qualifies for 10–25% premium discounts. Check with your carrier.
