Residential metal roofing is an investment for your home. No other residential roofing material can match a metal roof's longevity, sustainability and energy efficiency. No matter what size your house is, we will work to find a metal roofing solution that works for your home and budget.

  • Resistance against the elements. A metal roof can withstand just about anything nature can throw at your house. Whether it's anything from persistent condensation or high winds, to hail and even fire, your roof will be able to stand strong and require little to no maintenance. When properly installed, metal roofs can't absorb water and will shed snow far quicker than shingled roofs, making them perfect for Buffalo winters.


  • Choose your ideal style. Metal roofing comes in a variety of modern styles, designs and colors. Your roof will be sure to stand out and give your house a unique look that fits in with any neighborhood. Due to your metal roof's longevity, it will continue to look great, long after your neighbor's asphalt shingles have begun to wear down, come apart or collect unsightly moss and algae.


  • Being Eco-friendly has never been easier. Metal roofing is considered to be the most environmentally friendly roofing option, because it's generally made from sustainable, recycled and recyclable materials and will even help you save on energy costs, by reducing the effect of the sun in hot summer conditions.

Metal roofs can also be outfitted with energy saving solar panels, that help to reduce your electricity bill and keep money in your wallet.



  • Made to last. Metal roofs provide over 30 years of exceptional durability, which is far superior to shingle roofs. Additionally, our warranties will give you peace of mind for decades to come.
