Metal Roofing in the Twin Cities

Metal roofing offers a variety of benefits for homeowners. It is one of the longest-lasting materials, with many metal roofs lasting up to 70 years or longer with proper maintenance and care. It also provides superior protection from fire and extreme weather conditions, making it one of the more durable materials available.

In addition to its durability and fire resistance, metal roofing is also known for its energy efficiency. The reflective properties of metal help reduce energy bills by reflecting heat away from your home during the summer months. The reflective nature of metal allows it to keep heat in during winter months, providing an added layer of insulation that helps regulate the temperature within a property. 

Unlike asphalt shingle roofs, metal roofs are resistant to damage caused by hail and other forms of severe weather. Metal roofs can take a beating while maintaining their structural integrity, making them ideal for areas prone to harsh weather conditions. 

Metal roofs are also incredibly lightweight compared to other materials like tile or slate and require no additional support beneath them. 

Finally, metal roofs require less maintenance than asphalt or cedar roofs. We recommend maintenance for metal roofs approximately once per year. 

Types of Metal Roofing that We Offer

Metal roofing comes in various forms and styles. 

Below, we outline all the types that we offer, as well as the benefits of each:

• Standing-Seam Metal Roofing:  With its interlocking panels, standing-seam metal roofs have a unique aesthetic feature— the seams stand taller than the roof itself. It's not just for looks— this design protects the fasteners and increases the roof's overall durability. Plus, these metal roofs are highly versatile and customizable, with a wide range of colors, lengths, widths, thicknesses, and seam types available to suit any need.
• Corrugated Metal Roofing: A cost-effective and lightweight option, corrugated metal roofing is surprisingly durable and corrosion-resistant. Further, its shape directs water away from your home, preserving its foundation.
• Copper Roofing: An excellent choice for those interested in aesthetics, longevity, and increasing the value of their home. Copper roofs last for life, substantially reduce energy costs, and develop a distinct green patina over time, which makes your home stand out above the rest— both in your neighborhood and on the market.
• Steel Roofing: This option features many of the benefits scattered across the various forms of metal roofing. It is energy-efficient, fire-resistant, highly durable, recyclable, lightweight, and easy to install. Steel roofs can last up to 60 years; however, moist climates can accelerate their degradation.   
• Aluminum Roofing: Durable, affordable, and recyclable, this option is highly resistant to the elements. These roofs are popular among those seeking environmentally friendly options.
