If you're thinking about metal roofing for your Forest Hills home, here's the math: metal costs more upfront ($12-$22 per square foot versus $4-$8 for shingles), but metal lasts 2-3 times longer, cuts cooling costs 15-25%, and has virtually no maintenance. Over a 50-year span, metal is the cheaper option.
Standing seam is the premium metal roofing system. Concealed fastener clips allow the panels to expand and contract with temperature changes without stressing the seams or the deck. No exposed screws, no exposed fastener holes, no maintenance. The seams interlock and the clips float. That's why standing seam doesn't leak.
Our Metal Roofing Process
Metal Roofing Consultation
We discuss your goals, show you panel and color samples, and help you choose the right metal system for your Forest Hills home. Standing seam, corrugated, or metal shingle. Each has different aesthetics, costs, and performance characteristics.
Material Preparation
Metal roof panels are custom-ordered to the exact lengths needed for your roof. Trim, flashing, and ridge cap pieces specified and fabricated for your specific roof geometry. Lead time is typically 2-3 weeks for custom orders.
Expert Installation
Our metal roofing crew installs panels from eave to ridge, securing with concealed clips that allow thermal movement. Every seam interlocked by hand. Flashing details custom-bent on-site for penetrations and transitions.
Final Walkthrough
Every seam, fastener, and flashing point inspected. Your manufacturer warranty registered on completion day: 40-year paint finish, 25-year weathertight system warranty. Written workmanship warranty from Forest Hills Roofing & Maintenance.
