How It Works

Our Metal Roofing Process — Step by Step

We’ve installed metal roofs on homes across South Brunswick since 2012, and our process is built for precision and peace of mind. Here’s how we handle every project, from first call to final cleanup.

  1. Free Consultation & Estimate — We start with a no-obligation visit to your home in neighborhoods like Kendall Park or Monmouth Junction. We inspect your roof, take measurements, and discuss your metal roofing options (standing seam, corrugated panels, or metal shingles from brands like GAF and CertainTeed). You’ll get a detailed estimate with no surprises.
  2. Material Selection & Permitting — We guide you through choosing the right gauge, color, and finish for your metal roof, ensuring it complements your home’s style. We handle all permits and coordinate with your HOA if needed. Our team orders materials from trusted suppliers like Malarkey and Owens Corning.
  3. Old Roof Removal & Prep — Our crew strips the existing roofing down to the deck, inspecting for any water damage or rot. We make necessary repairs, install ice and water shield in valleys and eaves, and lay down synthetic underlayment for added protection.
  4. Metal Roof Installation — We install your metal panels or shingles with precision, using hidden fasteners for a clean look and superior weather resistance. Flashing, ridge caps, and ventilation are all integrated to meet manufacturer specs. Our team works efficiently, minimizing disruption to your daily routine.
  5. Final Inspection & Cleanup — After installation, we walk the property with you, checking every seam and detail. We clean up all debris, nails, and materials, leaving your yard spotless. You receive a workmanship warranty and documentation for your records.
  6. Ongoing Support — We’re just a call away for any questions or maintenance needs. Our storm damage specialists can also help with insurance claims if needed, ensuring your metal roof stays in top condition for decades.

Real Results, Local Roofs

Metal Roof Installed on a Colonial Near Cranbury Brook

Last spring, we replaced a 20-year-old asphalt roof with a standing seam metal system on a colonial off Route 130. The homeowners wanted durability and energy savings.

In April 2024, we installed a 32-square standing seam metal roof on a 2,800 sq ft colonial on Meadow Road, just north of Cranbury Brook. The old asphalt shingles were curling and leaking after two decades of South Brunswick summers. We recommended Malarkey’s Legacy Series metal panels in charcoal gray for their 50-year warranty and cool-roof rating. The project took five days, including full deck replacement on the south-facing slope where moisture had damaged the plywood. We flashed all three dormers with custom-bent aluminum, added ridge vents for attic airflow, and installed GAF Snow Country ice-and-water shield in the valleys. The homeowners now enjoy a 30% reduction in summer cooling costs and a Class 4 impact rating that lowers their homeowners insurance premium. They told us the new roof transformed their curb appeal—and we’re proud to have done it for a family just two miles from our shop on Route 130.

Quick Answers

Frequently Asked Questions About Metal Roofing

We've been installing metal roofs in South Brunswick since 2012, so we've heard every question. Here's the straight talk on what you need to know about metal roofing for your home.

How much does a metal roof cost in South Brunswick?

Cost varies by roof size, pitch, and material. For a typical 2,000 sq ft home, expect $12,000–$20,000 installed. We use Malarkey, CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, IKO, and Atlas — all certified. We'll give you a free, no-obligation estimate. Request a Quote or call (732) 466-1707.

Is metal roofing louder than shingles?

Not with proper underlayment and insulation. We install solid decking and sound-dampening layers, so rain noise is comparable to asphalt. Many homeowners near Cranbury Brook tell us they don't notice a difference.

How long does a metal roof last compared to asphalt?

A quality metal roof lasts 40–70 years; asphalt shingles average 20–30 years. We've seen metal roofs on Route 130 colonials still solid after 50 years. Plus, we back every installation with a workmanship warranty.

Will a metal roof save me on insurance?

Many insurers offer discounts because metal resists hail, wind, and fire. As storm damage specialists, we help with insurance claims — and we've seen premiums drop 10–20%. We're licensed (NJ HIC #13VH09871200) and insured.

Can I install a metal roof over my existing shingles?

Technically yes, but we recommend a full tear-off for best performance and warranty. Overlaying hides potential rot or leaks. We always inspect the deck first — it's why our work holds up in South Brunswick summers.

Does metal roofing attract lightning?

No — metal is non-combustible and actually disperses electrical charges safely. It's no more likely to be struck than any other roof. We've installed metal on homes near Cranbury Brook with zero issues.

What colors and styles are available for metal roofs?

We offer standing seam, metal shingles, and corrugated panels in dozens of colors — from classic dark bronze to modern slate gray. We'll bring samples to your home. Call (732) 466-1707 to set up a visit.
