The 60-year commercial roof.

Commercial metal roofing earns its reputation the hard way: 40–60+ years of service life, unmatched snow-shedding, and wind performance that keeps working long after other systems give up — at a lifetime cost that makes sense.

We install standing seam and exposed-fastener metal systems on commercial buildings across Michigan — low-slope and steep-slope alike — with Kynar/PVDF finishes that resist fade for decades. Retrofit over an existing built-up or modified bitumen roof is often possible, and aging metal can be restored with rust remediation, seam sealing, and restoration coatings.

From a retrofit over an existing roof to a brand-new standing seam system, we spec the panel, gauge, and attachment for your building — not the thinnest assembly we could bid. For other systems, see our commercial roofing, TPO, and EPDM pages.

How We Build It

Anatomy of a metal roof.

The metal panel is the visible layer of an engineered assembly. Get any of the six layers wrong and the system can't do its job — here's how we build a metal roof that lasts.

123456
Standing seam metal · deck-to-panel
Build Spec · Six layers
01

Structural deck

We assess the existing deck — steel, wood, or concrete — and confirm it's sound before the new metal assembly goes down.

02

Insulation layer

Rigid board or blanket insulation to the R-value your building and budget call for — a thermal break that also quiets rain and controls condensation.

03

Substrate & underlayment

Solid decking or purlins with a high-temperature synthetic underlayment — the secondary water barrier that protects the building while the panels do the heavy lifting.

04

Metal panels

Standing seam or exposed-fastener panels in the gauge and profile your roof calls for — finished in fade-resistant Kynar/PVDF colors.

05

Concealed-clip seams

Standing seam panels lock over concealed clips that let the metal expand and contract with Michigan's temperature swings — the difference between a 60-year roof and one that works its fasteners loose.

06

Flashing & snow retention

Ridges, valleys, curbs, penetrations, and edge metal detailed and sealed right — plus engineered snow retention where sliding snow threatens entries and equipment.

Why Metal

What makes metal stand out.

Decades of service life, snow-country performance, and finishes that keep their color — with options to fit your building.

40–60+ Year Life

Proven Longevity

A properly installed commercial metal roof delivers 40–60+ years of service — often the last roof a building needs under the same ownership.

Built for Snow & Wind

Michigan-Ready

Metal sheds snow instead of holding it and carries some of the strongest wind ratings in roofing — performance built for Michigan winters.

Standing Seam Precision

Concealed Fasteners

Concealed-clip standing seam panels lock down tight with no exposed fasteners on the field of the roof — clean lines and fewer points of failure.

Retrofit-Friendly

Over Existing Roofs

In many cases a metal system can go over the existing roof — less tear-off, less disruption, and less downtime for the building below.

Low Lifetime Cost

Best Value Per Year

Metal costs more up front and less over its life — spread across 40–60+ years of service, it's one of the lowest cost-per-year roofs you can buy — see how it stacks up against typical roof replacement costs in Michigan.

Restorable & Recoatable

Second Life

Aging metal rarely needs to come off — rust remediation, seam sealing, and recoating restore performance and add years of service.

Our Process

How a metal roof project works.

Five steps from assessment to a tight, documented metal roof — spec'd for your building, built to last.

01

Assessment

We inspect the roof, deck, and existing assembly, and confirm whether a retrofit over the existing roof is on the table.

02

System Spec

We spec the panel profile, gauge, finish, and attachment for your building — with itemized pricing and warranty options.

03

Tear-Off / Retrofit Prep

Old roof removed or prepped for retrofit, deck repaired, and underlayment and insulation installed.

04

Panel Installation

Panels set straight and locked to spec, clips and fasteners torqued right, and every flashing detail sealed.

05

Inspection

We walk every seam, check every detail, and confirm the roof is watertight before we hand it off.

Published Pricing

What commercial metal roofing costs in Michigan.

Nobody in commercial roofing publishes prices. We think that's backwards — you're building a budget, and you deserve real numbers before you ever sit through a sales call. These are honest planning ranges for typical commercial projects in Michigan.

New Standing-Seam System$12 – $20 / sq ft installed

Engineered panels, concealed fasteners, full trim and flashing package — a 40-year-class roof.

Retrofit Over Metal$9 – $14 / sq ft installed

New metal or membrane system over an existing metal roof — no tear-off, minimal disruption.

Metal Roof Repairs$2,000 – $8,000 typical project

Fastener back-out, seam sealing, panel replacement, and curb re-flashing.

What moves the number:

  • Tear-off vs. recover — removing the old roof adds cost, but resets the clock and lets us fix what's underneath.
  • Wet insulation & deck repair — found by core samples and moisture scans, and priced before work starts — never a mid-job surprise.
  • Code-required insulation — Michigan energy code sets the R-value; more insulation costs more up front and less every month after.
  • Edge metal, curbs & penetrations — detail work is where the labor lives; a cluttered roof costs more than a clean one.
  • Access, height & staging — how hard it is to get material up and debris down changes the number.
  • Warranty term — a 15-, 20-, or 30-year no-dollar-limit warranty changes the spec, not just the paperwork.

Since 1984

“A metal roof is only as good as its details. We set every panel straight and seal every termination — because the details are the whole roof.”

Family-run since 1984 and trusted on commercial metal across Michigan. We panel it right, flash it right, and back it with manufacturer warranties — from new standing seam to full restoration.

The Reasonable Difference

Why owners choose us for metal.

Precision installation, honest specs, documented work, and 42 years of commercial roofing in Michigan weather.

Manufacturer-Spec Installation

We install metal systems to manufacturer spec and NRCA industry guidelines — the requirement for the finish and weathertight warranties that protect your investment.

Standing Seam Done Right

Concealed-clip seams that let the panels move with Michigan's freeze-thaw are what separate a 60-year roof from a callback — we set and lock every one.

Snow-Country Engineering

Snow-shedding profiles, engineered snow retention, and wind-rated attachment — designed for the loads Michigan actually delivers.

The Right Spec, Not the Cheapest

Panel profile, gauge, finish, and attachment — we spec what your building needs, not the thinnest assembly we can bid.

42 Years in Michigan

Family-run since 1984. We've installed and serviced commercial roofs across Michigan's full range of weather — and we know how metal behaves here.

Manufacturer Warranties

Finish warranties on Kynar/PVDF coatings and weathertight system options — backed by quality-controlled, documented installation.

Factory-certified across the low-slope spectrum: Elevate (Firestone) · GenFlex · Mule-Hide · IB Roof Systems · GAF · Gaco silicone coatings.

The Response Standard

Response times you can put in your vendor file.

Every roofer says “fast response.” We'd rather commit to numbers you can hold us to.

01

A human, same business day.

Every commercial call or inquiry gets a response from a person the same business day — not a voicemail loop, not a callback queue.

02

Leaks go to the front of the schedule.

Report a leak and it jumps the queue — a technician on your roof inside the week, prioritized by severity, with maintenance-program buildings first in line. A documented visit that actually happens, not an emergency-line promise that doesn't.

03

A photo report after every visit.

What we found, what we did, and what to budget — photo-documented and sent to your file after every single visit. Your records, not our word.

Commercial Metal Roofing FAQ

Commercial metal roofing FAQs.

A properly installed commercial metal roof lasts 40–60+ years — standing seam systems with Kynar/PVDF finishes sit at the top of that range. Attachment quality, detailing, and periodic maintenance are what get you there.
Metal costs more up front than a single-ply membrane, but it lasts two to three times as long. Spread over a 40–60+ year service life, metal is often the lowest cost-per-year roof you can put on a building. We'll show you the numbers for both.
That's a myth on commercial buildings. Installed over solid decking, insulation, and underlayment, a metal roof is no louder than any other system — the assembly absorbs the sound long before it reaches the space below.
Better than almost anything else. Metal sheds snow instead of holding it, carries some of the strongest wind ratings in roofing, and engineered snow retention controls where sliding snow goes — protecting entries, gutters, and equipment.
Often, yes. Rust remediation, seam sealing, fastener replacement, and a restoration coating can add years of service at a fraction of replacement cost. We'll assess the panels and tell you honestly which path makes sense.
Not much — that's part of the appeal. Periodic inspections, keeping drains and valleys clear, checking sealants and fasteners, and touching up finish scratches keep a metal roof on track for its full 40–60+ year life.
Straight Answers

What we install — and what we don't.

Most commercial roofers claim every system in the book. We'd rather be honest about where we're excellent — and say so in writing.

We install & service

We don't — on purpose

  • Spray polyurethane foam (SPF) roofing. We believe coatings and single-ply membranes serve Michigan's freeze-thaw climate better over the long haul — so we don't sell foam.
  • New built-up (BUR) or modified bitumen installs. We repair and restore existing BUR and mod-bit roofs every week — but when replacement day comes, we'll spec a modern single-ply instead of selling you yesterday's system.

If your project needs something we don't do, we'll tell you on the first call — and point you toward someone good. That's the fastest way to earn the next roof.
