Panel Systems

Four Ways to Put Metal on a Charlotte Roof

The panel you pick sets the price, the look and how the roof handles our storms. Here's how they compare.

Most installed

Gloved hands snapping a charcoal standing seam panel over a concealed clip

Standing Seam Metal Roofing

Concealed clips, no exposed screws, panels that float with thermal movement. Cleanest look, longest life, the right answer on most homes.

Screw-Down Metal Roofing

Exposed-fastener corrugated or R-panel. The cheapest metal option. Screws need replacing every 10 to 15 years, and we do that too.

Metal Shingle Roofing

Stamped steel or aluminum that reads as shake or slate from the street. The panel for HOAs that won't approve a rib profile.

Stone-Coated Steel Roofing

Steel core with a granular finish. Heavy tile look without the tile weight. Popular on brick colonials in South Charlotte.

Colors & Finishes

Twenty-Plus Kynar Colors. These Are the Ones Charlotte Actually Orders.

Every colour is a 24-gauge sample you can hold against your brick and trim before you sign. Dark colours run warmer in July; we'll show you the solar reflectance numbers.

Metal vs. Shingles in Charlotte

Why Metal Is the Second-and-Last Roof Most Charlotte Houses Get

95°F

July Attic Heat

Kynar 'cool' pigments reflect a large share of solar heat versus dark asphalt, which matters when the thermostat runs from May to October.

1–2"

Piedmont Hail

Charlotte sits in a hail corridor. 24-gauge Class 4 panels shrug off what strips granules from shingles.

Service Life

An asphalt roof here lasts 15 to 20 years in humidity and UV. Metal is a 40-to-70-year roof - one install, not three.

Questions Charlotte Asks

Straight Answers on the Things People Worry About

Is a metal roof loud in the rain?

Not over a solid deck with underlayment, which is how every residential roof is built. Barns are loud because panels sit on open purlins with nothing beneath them.

Does hail dent a metal roof?

Softball hail dents anything. Typical Charlotte hail doesn't dent 24-gauge steel; 26-gauge and aluminum are more vulnerable, which is part of why we spec 24 on standing seam.

Does a metal roof attract lightning?

No. Lightning strikes the tallest object regardless of material, and a metal roof is non-combustible if it does.

Can you install metal over my existing shingles?

Sometimes - one layer, a sound deck, and code allows it. It saves tear-off cost, but we'll tell you when it's a bad idea.

Will my HOA allow a metal roof?

Most Charlotte HOAs now approve standing seam in muted colours; metal shingles get through the strictest ones. We prepare the ARC submission.

What does a 2,000 sq ft metal roof cost in Charlotte?

It depends on the panel system, the pitch and complexity of the roofline, and whether there is a tear-off. Call for a price; the exact number comes in writing after a measurement.

How long does a metal roof last in North Carolina?

Forty to seventy years for a Kynar-finished steel panel, against 15 to 20 for asphalt in Charlotte's heat and humidity. Fasteners on screw-down roofs are the exception - they need replacing every 10 to 15 years.

Is a metal roof hotter in summer?

The reverse. A light or 'cool' Kynar colour reflects far more solar energy than dark asphalt, and many Charlotte homeowners see lower summer cooling bills after switching.
