Metal Roofing in Baton Rouge, LA

Standing seam panels lock together with raised, concealed seams so there are no screws through the face of the roof, which is why it is the longer-lasting and lower-maintenance option. Exposed fastener panels are screwed through the panel with rubber washers, which costs less up front but means those washers are the part that ages. We price both side by side in the same proposal so you can see the real difference for your roof.

Metal generally runs higher than architectural shingles, and standing seam runs higher than exposed fastener panels. The cost drivers are squares of roof, pitch, panel profile and gauge, the amount of custom flashing and trim, and the decking condition once the old roof is off. You get a written, itemized number after the free inspection instead of a phone estimate.

Yes. We are a Baton Rouge based roofing contractor working under Louisiana Contractor License #6386, with our own crews on both residential metal roofs and commercial metal and low-slope systems.

A properly installed metal roof generally outlasts asphalt shingles by a wide margin, and the coating carries its own manufacturer warranty. Our workmanship is backed by a 5-year warranty on top of the material warranty.

Metal panels are rated for high wind uplift, and standing seam systems hide the fasteners under the seam so there are fewer exposed points to fail. Correct fastening pattern and edge detailing matter more than the panel itself, which is why we install with our own crew.

No. Reflective finishes shed radiant heat rather than absorb it, which usually means a cooler attic in Baton Rouge summers compared with dark asphalt shingles.

Not on a finished home. The panels sit over decking and underlayment, plus attic insulation, so rain noise is closer to a shingle roof than to a bare metal barn.

Usually yes. Most metal roof leaks trace back to backed-out fasteners, failed sealant at penetrations, or flashing details rather than the panels. We inspect free and show you photos before recommending anything.

Metal costs more up front than asphalt shingles and lasts considerably longer, so the comparison depends on how long you plan to keep the home. We price both options side by side after the inspection so you can decide with real numbers.
