Our Metal Roofing Process
From First Call to Standing Seam — 4 Steps That Deliver a 40-Year Roof
We handle every detail, from measuring your Dilworth tudor to negotiating with your insurance adjuster. Our 17-year team has installed metal on over 300 Charlotte homes—here's exactly how we do it.
- Free On-Site Inspection & Material Selection — We inspect your roof deck, measure every valley and penetration, then walk you through metal options: standing seam (we're certified on McElroy Metal), stone-coated steel (Malarkey's Legacy line), or exposed fastener panels. We explain the cost vs. longevity tradeoffs right on your driveway in Ballantyne or NoDa.
- Custom Panel Ordering & Insurance Advocacy — We order panels cut to your exact roof dimensions from our local supplier, eliminating scrap. If your insurance covers metal as a storm-damage upgrade, we meet the adjuster at your house on Monroe Rd, present our findings, and fight for full replacement cost—including the premium for standing seam over asphalt.
- Precision Installation with Manufacturer Warranties — Our crew removes the old roof, inspects the deck for rot (we replace any bad OSB at cost), installs synthetic underlayment, then hangs panels per manufacturer specs. Every hidden fastener, every flashing detail is photographed. We register your 40-year paint warranty with McElroy and your 30-year workmanship warranty with us—both active the day we finish.
- Final Walkthrough, Cleanup & Lifetime Support — We sweep the job site with magnets (every screw, every scrap), then walk the roof with you—inside the attic, along gutters, around skylights. We show you the warranty documents, explain the care schedule (wash twice a year, but no pressure washing!), and give you our personal cell numbers. Same-day service if you ever have a question—even 10 years from now.

Real Job, Real Results
Ballantyne Standing-Seam Installation — 2024
A Providence Road South homeowner called us after their third shingle replacement in eight years. We installed a Fabral standing-seam metal roof. No callbacks since.
In spring 2024, a homeowner on Providence Road South in Ballantyne contacted us after repeated shingle failures. Two prior contractors had patched the same north-facing slope twice. We pulled permits, inspected the decking, and found improper ventilation driving premature shingle deterioration — something neither previous crew diagnosed.
We recommended a 26-gauge Fabral Grandrib 3 standing-seam system in Charcoal Gray. Total tear-off exposed two layers of 3-tab shingles and partial deck rot near the ridge. We replaced 14 sheets of OSB, installed a Grace Ice & Water Shield underlayment across all eave zones, and completed the metal installation over four days with our four-man crew.
Final specs: 2,240 sq ft, 40-year Fabral panel warranty, lifetime workmanship warranty under NC #27941. The homeowner filed a partial insurance claim for the storm-related deck damage — we met the adjuster on-site and documented every deteriorated sheet. Claim covered $4,100 of the deck repair.
Two follow-up inspections at 30 and 90 days — zero issues. The homeowner left us a 5-star review naming the ventilation diagnosis specifically.
Frequently Asked Questions
Your Metal Roofing Questions Answered
Get the facts from Charlotte's trusted metal roofing experts. We've installed hundreds of metal roofs across the Charlotte metro since 2009, and we're here to help you make an informed decision.
How long does a metal roof last in Charlotte's climate?
Properly installed metal roofing lasts 40–70 years. We use 24-gauge steel and aluminum from manufacturers like Malarkey and GAF, which resist our humidity, hail, and high winds. NC #27941.
Is metal roofing noisier than shingles in rain?
Not with proper underlayment and attic insulation. We install a solid deck with Grace Ice & Water Shield and Owens Corning PRO-Series insulation — sound levels are comparable to asphalt. Our NoDa bungalow retrofits prove it daily.
Does metal roofing attract lightning?
No. Metal is non-combustible and actually disperses lightning safely if struck. Our insurance claim specialists have never seen a lightning-caused metal roof failure in 17 years (2009 to now).
How much does a metal roof cost in Charlotte?
Typical range: $8–$14 per square foot installed, depending on gauge, seam style, and slope. We provide free, itemized estimates with zero pressure. Call (704) 476-1263 for yours.
Can you install metal roofing over existing shingles?
We can, but we recommend a full tear-off for warranty compliance and to inspect the deck. Our 30-year workmanship warranty requires a clean substrate. We've done over 150 tear-offs in Ballantyne and SouthPark.
Does metal roofing save on insurance?
Many carriers offer discounts for Class 4 impact resistance. Our CertainTeed and Atlas metal panels meet that rating. We'll provide documentation — just ask during your free inspection.
Do you offer financing for metal roofing?
Yes. We partner with GreenSky and other lenders for 0% APR options. Most Charlotte homeowners qualify. Same-day emergency tarping still applies — we're here 7 days a week.
