Metal Roofing in Garden City, SC

Salt air eats away at shingle granules, which makes them wear out faster. Metal does not have that problem, and that is why it holds up much longer in this coastal environment. With metal, you are not replacing shingles every few years. You get a roof that can last several decades with less upkeep.

Exposed-fastener metal runs about $13,500 to $21,000 for a typical home. Standing seam metal is higher, between $30,000 and $51,000. The price depends on your roof size and complexity. We give you a clear quote so you know the cost before we start.

Exposed-fastener metal has screws that show on the surface. It is less expensive and works well for many homes. Standing seam metal hides the fasteners under raised seams, which makes it more durable and better against leaks. It costs more but lasts longer, especially in high wind areas like North Waccamaw Drive.

Metal reflects heat from the sun, which can keep your home cooler in the summer. With proper insulation, it also helps keep warmth in during the winter. We install metal with a ventilated system so your attic stays balanced. That helps your HVAC work less and lowers your energy bills.

It is possible, but we usually recommend removing the old shingles first. That way we can check the decking for rot or damage. In Garden City, where moisture is common, we want to see the full picture before we cover anything up. A clean base makes the metal roof last longer.

Shingles often last 15 to 25 years. Metal can last 40 to 70 years, depending on the type and how well it is installed. That means one metal roof can outlast two or three shingle roofs. Over time, it can save you money even though the upfront cost is higher.
