Metal RoofingBased in Southlake, TX

Standing seam and stone coated steel roofs for homeowners who want a roof that outlasts the mortgage.

Metal Roofs

What the job covers.

A metal roof is the long answer to North Texas weather. Where an asphalt roof in hail country may be replaced two or three times over a few decades, a well-installed metal roof is rated to last far longer, and the steel tends to dent rather than crack when hail hits it.

There are two families worth knowing. Standing seam panels run from ridge to eave with raised, interlocking seams and hidden fasteners, which gives a clean modern look and removes the exposed screws that are the most common leak point on cheaper metal roofs. Stone coated steel is pressed into the shape of a shingle, shake or tile and finished with a bonded layer of stone granules, so from the street it reads as a traditional roof.

The Difference

Before you decide.

Cost is the trade-off. A metal roof in North Texas commonly runs two to three times the price of laminated shingles. Against that, it can outlast several shingle roofs, some products carry impact ratings that insurers reward with a discount, and light-colored metal reflects a good share of the summer sun that would otherwise bake the attic.

Installation decides whether any of that holds. Steel expands in a hundred-degree afternoon and contracts overnight, so fastening, clips and trim have to allow for movement. Flashing at walls, chimneys and valleys is made for metal. Underneath, the deck is inspected and repaired and a high-temperature underlayment goes down before the panels.

Metal also suits the parts of a house that shingles struggle with: low-slope porches and additions, and the steep accents and turrets common on larger homes in Southlake and Colleyville, where a standing seam section against a shingle roof is a familiar look.

If you are weighing metal against an impact-rated shingle, bring it up at the inspection. We will talk through how long you plan to stay in the house, what the roof has been through and what each option costs.

Before You Call

Metal Roofs, answered.

Is a metal roof louder in the rain?

Over solid decking and underlayment, as on a house, a metal roof is not much louder than shingles.

Does hail damage a metal roof?

Large hail can dent metal, usually cosmetically. Stone coated steel hides small dents well because of its textured finish.

How much more does metal cost than shingles?

Commonly two to three times as much in North Texas, depending on the system and the roof. An inspection gives you an exact price.

Can metal go on just part of the roof?

Yes. Porches, bay windows and low-slope sections are often done in metal alongside a shingle roof.
