Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for La Fayette, NY homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Metal roofing is our specialty, but shingles, gutters, soffit and leak work all get the same attention in La Fayette.
This is the work our name is attached to. Two decades of tin roofs on houses, churches, barns and additions, installed by crews who cut the trim on site instead of forcing something that almost fits.
We still shingle plenty of roofs. Cracked, curled and blown off shingles get replaced, and the valleys and flashing get reworked while we are up there.
We match the guard to your trees and your gutter profile, and make sure water can still get in where it is supposed to.
The layer you never see is what keeps water out on the ugly days. We do not thin it out to save a few dollars on a bid.
Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain is rarely under the hole. We trace the leak back to where it really starts and fix that.
We repair standing seam, exposed fastener panels and metal shingles, and we match the color as closely as the paint system will allow.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
Low slope roofs fail at the joints and around anything that sticks through them. That is where we start, not out in the middle of the field.
Missing shingles get matched as close as weathering allows. Loose metal gets new fasteners and washers, and the eaves, rakes and ridge get sealed back up tight.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
A replacement is a big spend and it should feel orderly. We schedule around dry weather, work in the right order, and never leave a house open overnight.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
Storm damage does not wait for business hours. We get the opening closed, photograph it for your insurance, and put the real fix on the schedule.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
Buying, selling, or just want to know how many years you have left? We look, we tell you, and we do not turn it into a pitch for a roof you do not need.
Metal is what we are known for. Since 2002 the bulk of our work has been standing seam and metal panel roofs, and it is still what most La Fayette homeowners call us about. We measure on site, help you settle on a color, and set the panels straight.
We do shingle roofs too, and plenty of them. But if you have been thinking about a tin roof on your La Fayette home, that is the conversation we enjoy most — panel type, color, trim, and what it is really going to cost.
Here is what La Fayette homeowners tell us makes the difference.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
Beds get covered, tear off gets hauled as we go, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out. Your yard should look like we were never there.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
A few backed out screws or a whole roof off a church — we take both. No job is too small to get the same crew and the same care.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
The questions that come up on just about every estimate we write.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a La Fayette metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
For most La Fayette homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Most La Fayette metal roof jobs land somewhere between about $12,000 and $30,000 in 2026, depending on square footage, pitch, panel type and how much tear off there is. Standing seam runs higher than exposed fastener panels. We measure before we quote, and the estimate is free.
Yes. Gutters, guards, soffit and fascia are all part of keeping the edge of a La Fayette roof dry, so we handle them along with the roof instead of sending you off to find somebody else to finish the job.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a La Fayette metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside the house. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed straight to open purlins over a barn with nothing underneath.
Plenty of them. Most La Fayette customers choose from around twenty standard colors, and green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones people pick most. We bring the color chart out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding.
