If you're thinking about metal roofing for your Preemption 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.
Our Metal Roofing Process
Free Estimate
We discuss your goals, show you panel and color samples, and help you choose the right metal system for your Preemption home. Standing seam, corrugated, or metal shingle. Each has different aesthetics, costs, and performance characteristics.
Panel Ordering & Prep
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.
Professional Metal Crew
Standing seam panels installed with Z-clips on solid substrate or battens. Each panel locked into the adjacent panel with a mechanical seamer. No exposed fasteners, no maintenance points. Trim and flashing hand-formed for a custom fit.
Warranty & Completion
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 Preemption Roofing & Maintenance.

About Our Preemption Metal Roofing Services
Color options are virtually unlimited. Matte black, charcoal, forest green, copper penny, barn red, slate blue. We order custom colors with 40-year color warranties. Your home, your style. We bring color samples to the estimate so you can see them against your siding and trim.
Metal roofing works on pitches as low as 3:12 for standing seam. Steeper pitches look incredible in metal and shed water faster. For low-slope applications, we use specific underlayment and sealant details to ensure watertight performance. We help you select the right panel profile for your roof geometry.
