A properly installed metal roof typically lasts 40–70 years, compared to 20–30 years for asphalt shingles. For most North Georgia homeowners, a metal roof is the last roof they'll ever need to install, which makes the higher upfront cost a significant long-term value. Steel roofing systems in particular hold up exceptionally well in Georgia's heat, humidity, and storm conditions.

We install standing seam metal roofing (the most popular choice for residential homes, with concealed fasteners and a clean modern profile), corrugated steel roofing (highly durable, excellent for barns, outbuildings, and cost-conscious projects), and metal shingles (a great option when homeowners want the longevity of metal with a look similar to traditional asphalt). We'll help you choose the right system for your home and budget.

With proper installation, specifically a quality underlayment and solid decking, a metal roof is no louder than an asphalt shingle roof. The "loud in rain" reputation comes from older bare-metal agricultural installations without underlayment. Residential metal roofing installed correctly is quiet. We'll walk you through the underlayment options so you know exactly what's going on your home.

Better than most materials, yes. Steel roofing is significantly more impact-resistant than asphalt shingles and won't crack, break, or lose granules in hail. Some metal roofing products carry Class 4 impact resistance ratings, the highest available, which can also reduce your homeowner's insurance premium. Ask us about impact-rated options when you request your quote.

Metal roofing typically costs 2–3 times more than asphalt shingles upfront, but when you factor in a 40–70 year lifespan (vs. 20–30 for shingles), lower maintenance costs, potential insurance savings, and energy efficiency, most homeowners find the long-term value significantly better. We'll give you a detailed written quote for both options if you'd like to compare.
