Shepherd is a small farm town just northeast of Billings where the open ground starts and the wind never really stops. Most homes here sit on big lots or acreage, many with a shop, a barn, or both, and the roofs take a beating from hail, chinook gusts, and heavy wet snow that slides off in sheets.
We are Billings Metal Roofing, and we work Shepherd and the 59079 ZIP code because we know what these rural properties need. Whether you are off Shepherd Road or out toward the Yellowstone valley, we have seen how fast a shingle roof fails out here and how well a properly installed metal roof holds up.
Metal Roofing in Shepherd (59079)
Shepherd sits on open ground northeast of Billings, and that exposure is the first thing we look at. Properties here are often on larger lots with farm buildings, shops, and barns, so we deal with long roof runs, low-slope additions, and outbuildings that need metal rather than shingles. The soil is clay and gravelly in places, which affects drainage around the foundation and how we handle gutter discharge. Access can be tight for equipment when you are off a gravel drive or behind a fence line, and we plan for that before the crew shows up. The wind is the real story: chinook gusts can peel a poorly fastened panel, and summer hail pocks shingles and dents softer metals. We spec fasteners and panel profiles for that, not for a mild climate.
We have worked across the Billings area, from the South Side and the Heights to Lockwood and Huntley, and Shepherd is a regular stop for us. Our team knows the difference between a ranch house roof and a barn roof, and we bring the right approach for each.

How a Job Works in Shepherd
Step 1: You call us at (406) 717-6530 or request a free estimate online. We set a time to come out to your property in Shepherd, walk the roof, check the flashing and fasteners, and talk through what you are seeing. You get a written scope and a clear price before anything starts.
Step 2: Once you approve, we schedule the work. For a full replacement or a retrofit over shingles, we confirm what the local building department requires for permits and inspections, since thresholds vary by jurisdiction. If your place is off a gravel road or has a gate, we coordinate access so the crew and materials get in without tearing up the yard. We protect landscaping and outbuildings, then tear off or prep the deck and install the panels or shingles to spec.
Step 3: We clean up every day and do a final walkthrough with you. Magnets go over the ground for nails, gutters get checked, and we make sure the flashing and ridge caps are right. You see the finished roof and know what was done before we leave.
Pricing in Shepherd depends on the roof, but here are realistic starting points from our service list. Metal roof installation starts at $8 per square foot, standing seam at $10, metal roof replacement at $9, and a retrofit over existing shingles at $7. Corrugated and ribbed panel roofing starts at $5.50 per square foot, which is often a good fit for shops and barns. Repairs and leak repairs start at $450, screw replacement and re-fastening at $750, and flashing, chimney, or skylight repair at $600. Snow guards and ice protection start at $1,200. The main cost factors are roof size and pitch, how many layers you have now, access for equipment, and whether there is storm damage to document.
