| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Metal Roof Installation | From $8/sq ft | Complete metal roof installation for homes across Syracuse and Onondaga County: panel systems engineered for lake-effect snow load, ice and drifting wind, installed over ice-and-water membrane at eaves and valleys with proper ventilation, careful flashing and manufacturer-specified 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 Syracuse homes. Panels roll-formed to length and mechanically seamed or snap-locked, with no exposed screws to loosen as freeze-thaw cycles flex the roof all winter, and a smooth surface that sheds heavy snow. |
| Metal Roof Replacement | From $9/sq ft | Full tear-off and replacement of ice-damaged, snow-worn or end-of-life shingle and metal roofs: old roofing hauled away, decking inspected and repaired, then a complete new metal system installed. Insurers in some areas offer discounts for 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 Syracuse ranches and Cape Cods. 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 dented or punctured panels, resealing seams and penetrations, and fixing failed flashing before snowmelt or spring rain becomes interior damage. |
| Metal Roof Leak Repair | From $450 | Priority leak response for metal roofs: leaks traced to their true source (ice-dam backup, failed fasteners, seam separation, flashing gaps, pipe boots and chimney transitions) and fixed right, not just caulked over. Emergency tarping available after storms. |
| Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening | From $750 | Syracuse's deep freeze-thaw cycles flex metal roofs hundreds of times a year, so screws back out and weathered 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 garages, barns, workshops and farm buildings across Onondaga, Madison and Cayuga counties. Quality panels in durable colors, installed with proper screw patterns and closures that keep out wind-driven snow. |
| 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 Syracuse homeowners who want metal performance without the standing seam look. Lightweight, walkable and rated for heavy snow and wind. |
| 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 slate and shake looks suited to Syracuse's Victorian and Colonial houses. |
| Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing | From $20/sq ft | Copper, zinc and aluminum roofing for accents, porches, bay windows, turrets and full architectural roofs: premium metals that develop a living patina and last a century. Custom fabrication for the fine details of older Syracuse 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 coating systems that extend roof life 10-15 years and restore color without replacement. |
| Flashing, Chimney & Skylight Repair | From $600 | Repair and custom fabrication of flashing around chimneys, skylights, valleys, dormers and brick transitions, the number one leak point on older Syracuse roofs. In-house bent flashing for a precise watertight fit. |
| Snow Guards & Ice Protection | From $1,200 | Snow guards and rail systems for metal roofs: Syracuse's lake-effect snow can slide off slick panels all at once onto entries, driveways, gutters and neighbors. Guards sized for your roof pitch and heavy snow load, plus ice-dam and eave protection. Honest guidance on whether yours needs them. |
| Storm & Wind Damage Repair | Free inspection | Repair of snow, ice, wind and hail damage to metal roofing: thorough documentation with photos, an honest assessment of repair versus 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 and ice-dam damage, 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 hold against sliding snow and ice, and downspouts that carry heavy snowmelt away from foundations on clay soil, with details that handle maple seeds and leaves. |
| Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing | Free estimate | Metal roofing for barns, pole buildings, shops, churches and light commercial buildings across Onondaga and Madison counties, from dairy and farm buildings near Cazenovia to Liverpool and East Syracuse shops, with durable panel systems, insulation options and repairs. |
