“Had them put a metal roof on our hangar out at the airfield and it turned out great. The crew knocked out the whole 60x80 building in about four days and cleaned up every last screw and scrap of trim. Way better than the old rusted panels we had.”
Commercial Metal Roofing
“We wanted to keep the look of our Victorian porch but stop the constant leaks, so they retrofitted a standing seam panel right over the old shingles. Took two days, no mess left behind, and the trim work around the porch columns looks sharp. Honestly relieved I don't have to worry about it anymore.”
Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit)
“Our old red barn was leaking every time it rained and I figured it was a lost cause. Durham Metal Roofing re-fastened the panels, replaced a bunch of screws, and got it watertight again for way less than a full replacement. Good honest folks who know farm buildings.”
Agricultural Metal Roofing
“Got three quotes for a standing seam roof on our house and these guys were the most straightforward about what the job actually involved. Install went smooth, about 2,200 square feet, done in under a week. Only gripe is they started a day later than promised, but the finished roof is beautiful.”
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
“Water was coming in around our chimney flashing every storm and I was convinced the whole roof was shot. They came out, found the actual problem at the flashing, fixed it and re-sealed around the skylight too. Saved me thousands versus what another company quoted for a full replacement.”
Chimney & Skylight Repair
“Replaced the tired old metal roof on our ranch house with new stone-coated steel panels and the difference is night and day. Crew of four, three days start to finish, and they hauled off every bit of the old material. Neighbors have already asked me who did it.”
Metal Roof Replacement
“They installed metal shingle roofing on our new craftsman build and matched the style perfectly. The attention to the flashing and valleys was impressive, inspector even commented on how clean the work was. Would absolutely use them again.”
Metal Shingle Roofing
“Had our brick house's metal roof coated and repainted since it was fading and chalky after 15 years. They prepped everything properly and the finish looks brand new. Took a little longer than quoted with the weather delays, but the result speaks for itself.”

Homeowners searching for a metal roofing contractor near me in Durham need a crew that understands this specific stretch of the North Carolina Piedmont: rolling red clay, tall loblolly pines and willow oaks that shade older streets, and a housing stock that runs from Trinity Park and Watts-Hillandale bungalows to Forest Hills ranches and newer subdivision homes toward Research Triangle Park. Durham Metal Roofing is the local choice for Metal Roof Installation, replacement, re-roof, and repair, backed by a network of licensed, bonded, and insured local contractors.
We work on steep pitches, homes under heavy tree cover, and the large stock of 15 to 30 year old screw-down roofs whose fasteners are due for service. From Durham and Chapel Hill to Hillsborough, Carrboro, and Cary, we match the system to the house instead of the other way around. Call (919) 813-7863 or request a free estimate to get straight guidance on what your roof actually needs.
Most metal roof leaks in Durham trace back to a handful of predictable failures. On 15 to 30 year old exposed-fastener roofs, the number one cause is fasteners backing out as their EPDM sealing washers dry, shrink, and crack, letting water slip past the screw head. Seams separate as panels expand and contract with summer heat. Pipe boots and flashing fail at chimneys, skylights, and valleys where sealant ages out. Wind lifts and peels panels after severe thunderstorms, and fallen limbs from pines and oaks puncture panels outright. Left alone, water tracks along purlins and decking far from the entry point, rotting sheathing and soaking insulation before a stain ever shows on your ceiling.
That is why we start with an honest repair-versus-replace call. Many roofs that look finished are not: a full Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening service, new sealing washers, and fresh closures often restore a watertight roof for a fraction of replacement cost. When flashing or seams are the culprit, targeted Metal Roof Leak Repair solves it without touching sound panels.
If your ceiling is stained or you can see lifted panels after a storm, call (919) 813-7863. We inspect, explain what failed and why, and quote the repair that actually fixes it. If replacement is the smarter long-term call, we will say so plainly rather than sell you a repair that will not hold. Reach us through our free estimate page to schedule an inspection.
We install the full range of metal systems: premium Standing Seam Metal Roofing with concealed clips and clean Kynar 500 / PVDF finishes; economical Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing that serves cabins, barns, and workshops well; Metal Shingle Roofing and Stone-Coated Steel Roofing for homeowners who want a traditional look; and Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing for accents and historic profiles.
The honest comparison is simple: standing seam costs more but has no exposed screws to maintain, while screw-down costs less and needs its fasteners serviced over its life. We also handle Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) when the deck is sound, and recommend a full tear-off when it is not.
Metal roof projects are typically quoted per square foot, while repairs are often flat-rate. Your price depends on the panel system and metal gauge, roof pitch and complexity, tear-off versus recover, decking condition, and access. We frame every figure as a typical range, and final pricing depends on the roof and site conditions. Some carriers may offer premium discounts for metal or impact-rated roofs, but that is between you and your insurer.
See our pricing page for an overview, then request a free estimate or free roof inspection so we can quote your actual roof rather than a ballpark.
After storm damage, we inspect and provide written documentation with photos that you may submit to your own insurer. We are not an insurance adjuster or agent, coverage decisions rest with your carrier, and we make no promise that a claim will be approved. On permits, in most jurisdictions a permit is commonly required for a full replacement, but requirements vary by city, and fees and inspection requirements differ by jurisdiction. Historic district or HOA design review can also restrict panel profile and color.
We handle the paperwork we are allowed to handle and point you to the right office for the rest. Requirements vary, so always verify with the Durham building or planning department before starting your project. Questions about your roof? Contact us for guidance.
