“Had them put a metal roof on our hay barn out past the county line, about 4,000 square feet of corrugated panel. Crew of four knocked it out in three days and hauled away every last scrap of the old tin. The barn's never been this dry.”
Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing
“We wanted the porch over our brick entry covered but dreaded the mess of a tear-off. They retrofitted standing seam right over the existing shingles instead. Two days, no dumpster in the driveway, and it looks like it was always meant to be there.”
Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit)
“Our old farmhouse barn roof was rusted through in spots and I figured it was a goner. They replaced the whole thing with ribbed panels and even matched the pitch on the lean-to. Grateful isn't a strong enough word, that building holds our whole operation.”
Metal Roof Replacement
“They installed our standing seam roof in the middle of January, which I honestly didn't think was possible. The crew worked around the cold snaps and still finished in under two weeks. Only gripe is they left a few metal shavings in the gutter that I had to rinse out myself.”
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
“Water was coming in around the chimney flashing every time it rained hard. They found the leak, resealed the flashing, and replaced a handful of backed-out screws while they were up there. Haven't seen a drop since, and the price was honestly less than I expected.”
Metal Roof Leak Repair
“Went with stone-coated steel for the house and I'm still surprised every time I pull in the driveway, it looks like high-end shingle but it's steel. They walked me through samples for a week before I committed. Clean install, clean yard, no surprises on the invoice.”
Metal Roof Installation
“After the ice dams last winter I had them install snow guards along the whole front of the house. Should've done it years ago. They were in and out in a single morning and explained exactly how the guards keep the snow from sliding off onto the walkway.”
Snow Guards & Ice Protection
“They put a metal shingle roof on our new build and it's the sharpest-looking house on the street. Scheduling took a little longer than promised, but the finished roof is flawless and the crew cleaned up so well you couldn't tell anyone had been there.”

Homeowners searching for a metal roofing contractor near me in Rochester need a crew that understands Great Lakes weather, not a sales pitch. Rochester Metal Roofing is your local source for metal roof installation, replacement, re-roof, and repair on homes throughout Rochester, Brighton, Irondequoit, Greece, and Gates. We work on steep Victorian gables, low-slope mid-century ranches, and modern remodels alike.
Our network of licensed, insured local contractors knows the conditions here: lake-effect snow squalls, ice dams at the eaves, freeze-thaw cycles, and heavy tree cover from maples, oaks, and lilacs. We also see a large stock of aging screw-down roofs whose fasteners are due for service. Whether your home is in Corn Hill, Browncroft, or a 1980s subdivision in Penfield, we match the metal system to your roof, your budget, and your long-term plans.
Metal roofs fail for predictable reasons, and most leaks start small. On 15 to 30 year old exposed-fastener roofs, the number one cause is fasteners backing out as EPDM sealing washers dry and shrink. Once the washer loses its seal, water slips past the screw head. Seam separation from thermal movement, failed pipe boots, and flashing gaps at chimneys, skylights, and valleys are close behind. Wind off Lake Ontario can lift panels, and fallen limbs can puncture even heavy-gauge steel.
Ignoring a small leak is expensive. Water tracks along purlins and decking far from the entry point, rotting sheathing and insulation before you see a stain inside. That is why we start every metal roof leak repair with a full inspection, not just a tube of sealant. We find the source, document the damage, and explain your options in plain terms.
Often the honest answer is repair, not replacement. A full screw replacement and re-fastening with new sealing washers can restore a watertight roof for a fraction of replacement cost. When seams, flashing, or widespread corrosion make repair a short-term patch, we will tell you that too. Call (585) 298-9938 to schedule an inspection and get a straight answer on repair versus replace.
We install the full range of metal systems. Standing Seam Metal Roofing uses concealed clips and hidden fasteners, making it the premium choice with no exposed screws to maintain. Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing is the economical workhorse for barns, workshops, and outbuildings. We also install Metal Shingle Roofing and Stone-Coated Steel Roofing that mimic slate or shake on older streets, plus Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing for bay windows, porches, and cupolas.
The honest comparison: standing seam costs more up front but has no exposed fasteners to service. Screw-down costs less and needs its fasteners checked and replaced over its life. When the deck is sound, Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) is a legitimate option that saves on tear-off. When the deck is soft or layered, a full Metal Roof Replacement is the right call.
Metal roof costs in Rochester are typically quoted per square foot for installations and as flat-rate pricing for many repairs. Price depends on the panel system and metal gauge, roof pitch and complexity, tear-off versus recover, decking condition, and access. We publish typical ranges on our pricing page so you can plan before you call. 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. For a firm number, request a free estimate or a free roof inspection. We will walk the roof, document what we find, and give you a written scope with options, including the cheaper one when it is the right one.
After a storm, we inspect the roof 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. We simply give you the evidence you need to file accurately.
On permits: in most jurisdictions, a permit is commonly required for a full replacement, but requirements vary by city, and thresholds, fees, and inspection requirements differ. Historic district or HOA design review can also affect panel profile and color choices. Requirements vary, always verify with the Rochester building or planning department before starting your project. For help understanding the process, contact us and we will point you to the right office.
