Metal Roofs
What we do on this job.
Metal roofing is durable, fire retardant and almost maintenance free. It is also energy efficient: metal reflects heat and blocks much of its transfer into the attic, which counts for a lot in a Fort Worth August. Research at the Florida Solar Energy Center found metal absorbed 34 percent less heat than asphalt shingles, and homeowners who switched have reported saving up to 20 percent on their energy bills.
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 look and removes the exposed screws that are the most common leak point on cheaper metal roofs. Exposed-fastener panels cost less and suit barns, shops and outbuildings, but their screws and washers need checking as they age.

The Difference
Worth knowing first.
Hail is the question everyone asks. Large hail can dent metal, usually cosmetically, and a metal roof does not crack and lose granules the way a bruised shingle does. Many metal systems carry the highest impact rating, which some Texas insurers reward with a premium discount.
Cost is the trade-off. A metal roof in North Texas commonly runs two to three times the price of an architectural shingle roof. Against that, it can outlast several shingle roofs over the years you own the house, and it saves on cooling along the way.
Installation decides whether any of that holds. Steel expands on a hundred-degree afternoon and contracts overnight, so clips, fasteners and trim have to allow for the movement. Flashing at walls, chimneys and valleys is formed for metal. Underneath, the deck is checked and repaired, and a high-temperature underlayment goes down before the panels.
Metal also works on the parts of a house that shingles struggle with: low-slope porches and patio covers, and accent sections over bay windows, where a standing seam roof against a shingle roof is a familiar look.
If you are weighing metal against an impact-rated shingle or DECRA stone-coated steel, bring it up at the free inspection. We will talk through how long you plan to stay in the house and what each option costs.

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. A metal roof does not crack or shed granules the way a shingle does.
Will a metal roof lower my energy bill?
It can. Metal reflects heat instead of soaking it into the attic, and homeowners who switch commonly report lower cooling costs.
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. A free inspection gets you the exact price.
