The honest version

Is metal actually the right roof for your house?

Metal roofs last 40 to 70 years against 15 to 20 for asphalt shingles. That is the whole argument, and it is the reason most people who call us are replacing a shingle roof for the second or third time and are done doing it. One metal roof instead of three asphalt ones.

It is also more money up front, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. So here is where shingles win: if you are selling the house within a couple of years, or the budget genuinely is not there, asphalt is the honest answer. We would rather tell you that than sell you a roof you did not need.

If you are staying, the math tends to go the other way, and it is worth seeing a real number on your own roof before you decide either way.

Six systems, one decision

Pick the panel that fits the house

Most of the choice comes down to two things: how the roof is built, and how much you care about what it looks like from the street. Exposed fastener is the value answer on big simple planes. Standing seam hides the fasteners under the seam so nothing penetrates the weather surface. If you are not sure, get your number first and we will walk it with you.

We roll the panels ourselves

We bought the roll former after getting tired of waiting on panel deliveries. It is in the building at 66607 US 33 in Goshen, and it is the single biggest difference between us and a company that orders panels from a distributor.

It means panel lengths cut to your roof instead of to a shipping truck. A 34 foot run is a 34 foot panel with no lap seam halfway up. Trim is bent here too, so it comes off the same coil as the roof instead of being matched by eye.

Our crews are our crews, not subcontractors we met last month. And there is a shop you can drive to if something ever needs sorting out.

What our customers say

★★★★★

Professional, courteous, beyond hard working and thorough. They were here first thing in the morning and worked hard until the job was done. Two of my neighbors are now interested in having their roofs done because they saw the work.

Deborah G. · Goshen, IN
★★★★★

Steelmaster was very easy to work with. Price was fair and the work was done very quickly. We have had no issues with their work or the roof at all. Putting the steel roof on was one of the best things we have done to the house.

Metal roofing questions we get every week

What does metal roofing cost in Northern Indiana?
Our Masterrib Lifetime exposed fastener panel starts at $4.50 a square foot installed. Standing seam starts at $5.70 for the Masterlok Lifetime 100, $5.90 for the 150 and $6.75 for the 175. Those are starting numbers for this area, not national averages and not what an average roof lands at. Pitch, tear off, how many layers are already up there, roof complexity and access all move a quote up from there. The tool on this page measures your roof from satellite imagery and puts a real number for your house on your screen in about a minute.
How long does a metal roof last?
Metal roofs last 40 to 70 years against 15 to 20 for asphalt shingles. Most people who call us are replacing a shingle roof for the second or third time and are done doing it. The finish carries a 40 year manufacturer paint warranty and our workmanship carries a 10 year warranty that Steel Master covers directly.
Is a metal roof loud when it rains?
A metal roof over solid decking and underlayment is not measurably louder than asphalt. The noise people remember is a bare panel over open purlins on an old barn, which is a completely different assembly.
Can metal roofing go over my existing shingles?
Often, yes, and in many cases in as little as one day. It depends on the condition of the decking, the number of existing layers, and local code. We will tell you plainly if a tear off is the right call rather than the cheaper one.
Which metal roofing panel should I pick?
It usually comes down to how the roof is built and how much you care about the look from the street. Exposed fastener Masterrib is the best value per square on large simple planes and it is the panel behind our starting price. Standing seam hides the fasteners under the seam so nothing penetrates the weather surface, which is the cleaner look and the longer term answer. The Masterlok 175 does not require a solid substrate, which makes it the right call on low slopes and open framing. If you are not sure, get your number first and we will walk the options with you.
Is metal roofing ever the wrong choice?
Yes. If you are selling the house within a couple of years, or the budget genuinely is not there, asphalt shingles are the honest answer and we will say so. We would rather tell you that than sell you a roof you did not need.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. The instant quote on this page is free, takes about a minute and does not require a phone call or an appointment. Nobody has to come to your house for you to see a price. If you want a person on the roof afterwards, that visit is free too, and we do not send salespeople.
Is financing available?
Yes, through Acorn Finance. You can prequalify in about 60 seconds with a soft pull that does not affect your credit score. It puts multiple lenders behind one form, with a fixed rate and a fixed payment, and loans typically run 3 to 12 years. Most offers have no prepayment penalty. Steel Master is not a lender.
