Metal Roof Installation in Boise

Why Metal Roofing?

Metal roofs last 50+ years. They're fire-resistant, handle snow loads like champs, and actually reduce your cooling costs in summer.

Yeah, they cost more upfront than asphalt shingles. But when you factor in longevity and energy savings, they're often the smartest investment you can make.

Plus they just look sharp. Modern metal roofs aren't those old barn roofs anymore—they come in tons of styles and colors.

Types of Metal Roofing

We install three main types of metal roofing:

Standing Seam - The premium option. Vertical panels with raised seams. No exposed fasteners means fewer leak points. Clean, modern look. This is what most people picture when they think "metal roof."

Corrugated Metal - Classic wavy panels. More affordable than standing seam. Great for shops, barns, and certain home styles. Exposed fasteners but still very durable.

Metal Shingles - Looks like traditional shingles or tiles but made of metal. Gets you the durability of metal with a more conventional appearance.

Benefits of Metal Roofs

Here's why people choose metal:

• Longevity - 50+ years with minimal maintenance
• Fire resistance - Class A fire rating
• Snow shedding - Smooth surface lets snow slide off
• Energy efficiency - Reflects heat, reduces cooling costs
• Wind resistance - Handles high winds better than shingles
• Environmentally friendly - Often made from recycled materials, fully recyclable
• Low maintenance - Doesn't rot, crack, or need replacing every 20 years

Color and Style Options

Metal roofs come in a huge range of colors—from traditional grays and blacks to reds, greens, blues, and browns. We'll show you samples and help you choose something that fits your home.

Most metal roofs have special coatings that prevent fading and protect against the elements. Quality finishes hold their color for decades.

The Installation Process

Installing a metal roof takes more skill than slapping down shingles. We've been doing it for years and know all the tricks to get it right.

Here's what's involved:

• Remove old roofing (if needed)
• Inspect and repair roof deck
• Install proper underlayment
• Add drip edge and trim pieces
• Install metal panels with precise measurements
• Seal all penetrations and transitions
• Install ridge caps and flashings
• Final inspection and cleanup

Metal roofs typically take longer to install than shingles—plan on 3-5 days for most residential projects.

What About Noise?

People always ask about rain noise. Honestly? With modern underlayment and proper insulation, metal roofs aren't much louder than any other roof.

Some people actually like the sound of rain on their metal roof. But if you're worried about it, we can add extra sound dampening.

Cost vs. Value

Metal roofs cost roughly 2-3 times more than asphalt shingles upfront. But they last 2-3 times longer and save money on energy and maintenance.

They also increase your home's resale value. Buyers love seeing a metal roof—it means they won't have to deal with roofing for decades.
