Metal Roofing Requires Precision. That’s Why We Do It In-House.
A great metal roof is about more than the material — it’s about how it’s installed. Poorly aligned seams, oil-canning, and sloppy edge work can all ruin the look and compromise performance. Our trained crews deliver clean lines, watertight seals, and detail-focused craftsmanship on every project.
What you won’t see on our jobs:
- Uneven panel layout or inconsistent clip spacing
- Fasteners exposed where they shouldn’t be
- Poor flashing at chimneys, valleys, and terminations
- Overlaps without hemmed or folded edges

What Homeowners Ask Us Most
What kinds of metal roofing projects do you take on?
We handle everything from full metal roof systems to smaller, high-detail accents like dormer roofs, bay window covers, and chimney caps. Whether it’s copper, corrugated, or custom-fabricated architectural sheet metal, we bring the same precision and care to every install.
How long does a metal roof last compared to asphalt or cedar?
A properly installed metal roof can last 40–70 years, depending on the material. It’s more durable than asphalt and generally has lower maintenance than cedar or shake.
Will a metal roof make my home noisier during rain or storms?
No — when installed with the correct underlayment and decking (as we do), metal roofs are no louder than other roofing systems. Sound is absorbed by insulation and structural layers.
Can you match metal roofing to my existing gutters or trim?
Absolutely. We custom-fabricate metal components and offer a range of finishes to ensure a cohesive look across roofing, gutters, and flashing.
Is metal roofing a good fit for older homes or restorations?
Yes. In fact, metal is often the best choice for restoring valleys, aprons, and other critical areas on older homes. It blends well with cedar, slate, and tile — and we’re experienced in historical replication.
