Our Standing Seam Metal Roof Installation Process
At Sensible Home Solutions, we don’t cut corners. Every metal roof installation includes a methodical, workmanship-focused approach
Full Roof Tear-Off
We remove all existing shingles, underlayment, flashing, and roofing debris never layering over old materials.
High-Temp Underlayment Matters
Using a high-temperature underlayment like
GAF StormGuard®
is crucial for metal roofs. It withstands the intense heat metal panels generate, protects the roof deck from moisture and ice dams, and provides a reliable secondary water barrier ensuring your metal roof lasts and performs as designed.
Proper Metal Roof Ridge Ventilation
A high-quality metal roof ridge vent is essential for balanced attic ventilation. It allows heat and moisture to escape naturally, preventing condensation, ice dams, and premature roof wear. With a properly installed ridge vent, your metal roof performs more efficiently, lasts longer, and helps maintain a healthier home environment.
Roof Deck Inspection
We examine the entire decking for rot, soft spots, or structural deficiencies, replacing damaged sections as needed.
Install High Quality Factory Fab Metal Panels
High-quality, factory-fabricated metal panels ensure precise sizing, consistent finishes, and superior performance. Unlike field-formed panels, factory production delivers tighter seams, better coatings, and long-term durability resulting in a cleaner look, stronger weather protection, and a roof system built to last.
Thorough Cleanup & Final Walkthrough
After installation, our team completes a meticulous clean-up and a detailed final walkthrough to ensure every panel, seam, and flashing meets our standard and yours. Your property is left spotless, and your new metal roof is fully reviewed before we consider the job complete.

Frequently Asked Questions About Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement
How long does a standing seam metal roof last?
Properly installed metal roofs can last 50 years or more, often double the lifespan of asphalt shingles.
Is a metal roof noisy during rain or storms?
Yes metal roofs are a bit louder than traditional asphalt shingles when it rains. A light rain has been described as sounding like soft tapping/popping or leaves rustling, which some homeowners find soothing. If it’s a normal rain shower, it’ll sound more like little beads hitting a hard surface.
Do you offer financing?
Absolutely. We offer flexible financing options with fast approval to make your project affordable.
Will you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. Sensible Home Solutions handles all permitting, scheduling, and inspection requirements.
Do metal roofs handle snow well?
Extremely well. Snow sheds quickly from metal roofs, preventing ice dams and excessive buildup.
Can you install a metal roof over shingles?
It’s possible, but we typically recommend full removal to inspect the decking and ensure optimal performance.
How much does a standing seam metal roof cost?
Standing seam metal roofs are a premium roofing system, typically ranging from $25,000–$60,000+, depending on home size, roof complexity, panel type, color selection, and installation requirements. While more expensive upfront than asphalt, metal roofing delivers a 50+ year lifespan, low maintenance, and superior energy savings making it a long-term investment that often pays for itself.
How long does installation take?
Most standing seam metal roof installations take 3–7 days, depending on your roof’s pitch, layout, and whether any decking repairs are needed. Complex roofs with dormers, valleys, and skylights may take longer due to the precision required.
What’s the difference between standing seam and exposed-fastener metal roofing?
Standing seam metal roofing uses concealed fasteners, meaning screws never penetrate the panel surface. This dramatically reduces potential leak points and extends lifespan.
Exposed-fastener systems (like corrugated panels) use visible screws with rubber washers that degrade over time.
Standing seam is the superior, long-term, premium option—ideal for residential homes.
Is a metal roof heavier than asphalt shingles?
No. Standing seam metal panels are actually lighter than asphalt shingles. Most homes require no structural upgrades to support a metal roof, making it safe and efficient to install.
