| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Metal Roof Installation | From $8/sq ft | Complete metal roof installation for homes across Winston-Salem and Forsyth County: panel systems engineered for Piedmont humidity, summer hail and winter ice, installed over high-temperature synthetic underlayment with proper ventilation, correct flashing and manufacturer-approved details for a 40-60 year service life. |
| Standing Seam Metal Roofing | From $10/sq ft | Concealed-fastener standing seam systems, the premium choice for Winston-Salem homes. Panels roll-formed to length and mechanically seamed or snap-locked, with no exposed screws to loosen as humid summer heat and cold nights expand and contract the roof. Superior wind resistance and a cool reflective finish. |
| Metal Roof Replacement | From $9/sq ft | Full tear-off and replacement of moss-streaked shingle, storm-worn or end-of-life metal roofs: old roofing hauled away, decking inspected for rot and repaired, then a complete new metal system installed. Some insurers discount impact-rated roofs, so ask yours. |
| Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) | From $7/sq ft | A new metal roof installed directly over your existing asphalt shingles: no tear-off, less waste, lower cost. Popular on Winston-Salem brick ranches and split-levels. We check deck condition first and tell you honestly when tear-off is the better call. |
| Metal Roof Repair | From $450 | Repair of damaged, loose or storm-hit metal roofing: replacing hail-dented or punctured panels, resealing seams and penetrations, and fixing failed flashing before a summer thunderstorm becomes interior damage. |
| Metal Roof Leak Repair | From $450 | Priority leak response for metal roofs: leaks traced to their true source (failed fasteners, seam separation, flashing gaps, pipe boots and porch roof transitions) and fixed right, not just caulked over. Emergency tarping available after severe storms and fallen limbs. |
| Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening | From $750 | Winston-Salem's humid summers and cool nights expand and contract metal roofs hundreds of times a year, so screws back out and sun-baked washers crack on older exposed-fastener roofs. Oversized screws and UV-resistant washers fix it for a fraction of replacement cost. |
| Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing | From $5.50/sq ft | Exposed-fastener metal roofing (corrugated, R-panel and 5V): the budget-friendly workhorse for porches, carports, barns and workshops across Forsyth and Yadkin counties. Quality panels in reflective cool-roof colors, installed with proper screw patterns and closures that keep out wind-driven rain. |
| Metal Shingle Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Metal shingles that deliver the look of architectural shingles, slate or shake with the lifespan of steel: a favorite for Winston-Salem homeowners who want metal performance without the standing seam look. Lightweight, walkable and wind-rated for foothill gusts. |
| Stone-Coated Steel Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Stone-coated steel systems combining steel strength with a textured traditional finish: excellent hail and wind performance, Class A fire rating, and profiles that mimic the shake and slate looks common on Winston-Salem colonials and Tudor cottages. |
| Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing | From $20/sq ft | Copper, zinc and aluminum roofing for accents, porches, bay windows and full architectural roofs: premium metals that develop a living patina and last a century. Custom fabrication for the fine details on West End turrets and Old Salem-inspired homes. |
| Metal Roof Coating & Painting | From $2.50/sq ft | Restoration of faded, chalking or surface-rusted metal roofs: surface prep, rust treatment and high-performance reflective coating systems that extend roof life 10-15 years, restore color and cut summer heat gain without replacement. |
| Flashing, Chimney & Skylight Repair | From $600 | Repair and custom fabrication of flashing around chimneys, skylights, valleys, dormers and porch transitions: the number one leak point on Winston-Salem roofs in this humid climate. In-house bent flashing for a precise watertight fit. |
| Snow Guards & Ice Protection | From $1,200 | Snow guards and rail systems for metal roofs: needed only occasionally in Winston-Salem, but useful on steep roofs over entries and patios to stop wet snow or a winter ice storm's packed sleet from sliding off at once. Honest guidance on whether yours needs them. |
| Storm & Wind Damage Repair | Free inspection | Repair of hail, wind, falling-limb and ice-storm damage to metal roofing: thorough documentation with photos, honest assessment of repair vs. replacement, and help documenting your insurance claim from inspection to completed work. |
| Metal Roof Inspection | Free estimate | Complete metal roof inspections for homeowners, buyers and insurance requirements: fastener condition, seam integrity, flashing, coating wear, moss and algae, and a straight answer on remaining service life with a written report. |
| Gutters for Metal Roofs | From $9/linear ft | Seamless gutter systems sized and mounted correctly for metal roofing: hangers that work with panel profiles and downspouts that carry Piedmont cloudbursts away from brick walls and red clay foundations, with details that handle poplar, oak and pine debris. |
| Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing | Free estimate | Metal roofing for barns, workshops, churches, carports and light commercial buildings across Forsyth County and the Yadkin Valley, from farm sheds and tobacco barns toward Rural Hall and Yadkinville to shops and warehouses along the highway corridors, with durable panel systems, insulation options and repairs. |
