If you're thinking about metal roofing for your Jacob 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
Design & Material Selection
Free on-site consultation. We measure, assess your roof geometry, and present panel options with realistic pricing. Standing seam, corrugated, and metal shingle profiles. You pick the system that fits your home and budget.
Custom Panel Fabrication
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.
Expert Installation
Installation by our dedicated metal crew, not a shingle crew with a metal job on the side. These installers do metal roofing every week. Seams are tight, transitions are clean, and every penetration is properly flashed.
Inspection & Warranty
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 Jacob Roofing & Maintenance.

About Our Jacob Metal Roofing Services
Standing seam is the premium metal roofing system. Concealed fastener clips allow the panels to expand and contract with temperature changes without stressing the seams or the deck. No exposed screws, no exposed fastener holes, no maintenance. The seams interlock and the clips float. That's why standing seam doesn't leak.
Metal shingle profiles look like traditional slate, shake, or tile but with metal's performance and longevity. DaVinci composites and similar products are ideal for Jacob neighborhoods with HOA restrictions on metal roofing appearance. You get the aesthetics the HOA requires with the durability metal provides.
