Complete metal roof installation for homes across Allentown and the Lehigh Valley, panel systems built for snow loads, ice dams and nor'easters, installed over full ice-and-water protection with proper ventilation for a 40-60 year service life. |
| Standing Seam Metal Roofing | From $10/sq ft | Concealed-fastener standing seam systems, the premium choice for Lehigh Valley homes. Panels roll-formed to length and mechanically seamed; with no exposed screws and a smooth surface that sheds snow instead of letting it build into ice dams. |
| Metal Roof Replacement | From $9/sq ft | Full tear-off and replacement of leaking, hail-dented or exhausted roofs. Full tear-off and replacement of ice-damaged shingle, failing slate or end-of-life metal roofs, old roofing hauled away, decking inspected and repaired, then a complete new metal system installed with full ice-and-water protection. |
| Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) | From $7/sq ft | Retrofit metal roofing laid over the shingles already on your Allentown home, no tear-off. A new metal roof installed directly over your existing asphalt shingles, no tear-off, less waste, lower cost, popular on Lehigh Valley ranches and twins. We check deck condition and snow-load requirements first and tell you honestly when tear-off is the better call. |
| Metal Roof Repair | From $450 | Repair for loose, hail-hit or ice-damaged metal roofing across Allentown and Lehigh County. Repair of damaged, loose or storm-hit metal roofing, replacing panels dented by ice or falling limbs, resealing seams and penetrations, and fixing failed flashing before the next thaw sends meltwater inside. |
| Metal Roof Leak Repair | From $450 | Leak work for metal roofs that finds the true entry point before anything is covered. Priority leak response for metal roofs, leaks traced to their true source (ice dams, failed fasteners, seam separation, flashing gaps at party walls and dormers) and fixed right, not just caulked over. Emergency tarping available after nor'easters. |
| Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening | From $750 | Fastener replacement for metal roofs pulling out under freeze-thaw and storm wind. Freeze-thaw cycles and winter wind loosen screws and crack washers on older exposed-fastener roofs across the valley, the top cause of slow leaks on barns, sheds and garages.

Copper, zinc and terne-coated roofing for bay windows, turrets, dormers and full architectural roofs, the premium metals of Old Allentown's Victorians and historic Bethlehem. Custom fabrication and historically appropriate seaming for the fine details. |
| Metal Roof Coating & Painting | From $2.50/sq ft | Coatings that restore weathered, chalky metal roofs instead of replacing them. Restoration of faded, chalking or rusted metal roofs, surface prep, rust treatment and high-performance coating systems that extend roof life 10-15 years on barns, porch roofs and garages without replacement. |
| Flashing, Chimney & Skylight Repair | From $600 | Chimney and skylight flashing rebuilt so ice and meltwater stay outside. Repair and custom fabrication of flashing around chimneys, skylights, dormers, party walls and valleys, the number one leak point on Lehigh Valley roofs when snow piles up and ice dams form. In-house bent flashing for a precise watertight fit. |
| Snow Guards & Ice Protection | From $1,200 | Snow guards fitted so winter snowpack releases gradually instead of sliding off. Snow guards and rail systems for metal roofs, a real need in the Lehigh Valley where heavy snow slides off a metal roof all at once onto steps, sidewalks and cars, plus ice-dam protection at the eaves. |

Metal roofing for bank barns, equipment sheds, churches, warehouses and light commercial buildings across the Lehigh Valley, from Pennsylvania German farms to old brick mills and factories, with durable panel systems, insulation options and repairs. |
What Affects the Price
- Roof size and complexity : Larger roofs or those with multiple slopes, valleys, and penetrations require more materials and labor, increasing the overall cost.
- Material choice : Standing seam, corrugated panels, metal shingles, stone-coated steel, and copper each have different price points, with copper and specialty metals at the higher end.
- Accessibility and roof height : Steep roofs, multi-story homes, or properties with limited access may require additional safety measures and equipment, adding to labor costs.
- Condition of existing roof : If removal of old roofing or structural repairs are needed, this adds to the project cost. Retrofit over shingles can be more economical.
