| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Metal Roof Installation | From $8/sq ft | Complete metal roof installation for homes across Billings and the Yellowstone Valley: panel systems engineered for large hail, heavy snow, ice dams and chinook winds, installed over ice-and-water protection at the eaves with proper ventilation and detailed flashing for a 40-60 year service life. |
| Standing Seam Metal Roofing | From $10/sq ft | Concealed-fastener standing seam systems, the premium choice for Billings homes. Panels roll-formed to length and mechanically seamed or snap-locked, with no exposed screws to loosen under chinook temperature swings and tall seams that shed snow cleanly. Superior wind resistance and a durable finish. |
| Metal Roof Replacement | From $9/sq ft | Full tear-off and replacement of hail-battered shingle or end-of-life metal roofs: old roofing hauled away, decking inspected and repaired where ice-dam leaks have crept in, then a complete new metal system installed. Some insurers offer discounts for impact-rated roofs, so ask yours. |
| Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) | From $7/sq ft | A new metal roof installed directly over your existing asphalt shingles, with no tear-off, less waste and lower cost. Popular on Billings' 1950s-70s ranches with a single sound shingle layer. We check deck condition first and tell you honestly when tear-off is the better call. |
| Metal Roof Repair | From $450 | Repair of damaged, loose or storm-hit metal roofing: replacing hail-dented or wind-lifted panels, resealing seams and penetrations, and fixing failed flashing before a chinook thaw or summer storm becomes interior damage. |
| Metal Roof Leak Repair | From $450 | Priority leak response for metal roofs, with leaks traced to their true source (ice-dam backup, failed fasteners, seam separation, flashing gaps, pipe boots and chimney transitions) and fixed right, not just caulked over. Emergency tarping available after storms. |
| Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening | From $750 | Billings' chinook swings from deep freeze to a warm thaw in hours, expanding and contracting metal roofs hundreds of times a year, so screws back out and washers crack on older exposed-fastener roofs. Oversized screws and UV-resistant washers fix it for a fraction of replacement cost. |
| Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing | From $5.50/sq ft | Exposed-fastener metal roofing (corrugated, R-panel and 5V), the budget-friendly workhorse for shops, barns, garages, horse shelters and farm buildings across Yellowstone County. Quality panels in durable colors, installed with proper screw patterns and closures that keep out wind-driven snow and dust. |
| Metal Shingle Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Metal shingles that deliver the look of architectural shingles, slate or shake with the lifespan of steel, a favorite for Billings homeowners who want hail and snow resistance without the standing seam look. Lightweight, walkable and wind-rated for chinook gusts. |
| Stone-Coated Steel Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Stone-coated steel systems combining steel strength with a textured traditional finish, with excellent hail and wind performance, a fire-resistant surface, and profiles that mimic the shake and slate looks common on Billings homes. Quiet under hail and rain compared with bare panels. |
| Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing | From $20/sq ft | Copper, zinc and aluminum roofing for accents, porches, bay windows and full architectural roofs: premium metals that develop a living patina and last a century. Custom fabrication for the fine details older Billings homes call for. |
| Metal Roof Coating & Painting | From $2.50/sq ft | Restoration of faded, chalking or surface-rusted metal roofs: surface prep, rust treatment and high-performance coating systems that extend roof life 10-15 years, restore color and protect against freeze-thaw wear without replacement. |
| Flashing, Chimney & Skylight Repair | From $600 | Repair and custom fabrication of flashing around chimneys, skylights, valleys, dormers and brick transitions, the number one leak point on Billings roofs under ice and snow. In-house bent flashing for a precise watertight fit. |
| Snow Guards & Ice Protection | From $1,200 | Snow guards and rail systems for metal roofs, important in Billings where heavy wet snow and chinook thaws send sheets of snow and ice sliding onto entries, driveways, decks and shrubs. Layouts sized to your roof pitch and panel profile, with honest guidance on whether yours needs them. |
| Storm & Wind Damage Repair | Free inspection | Repair of hail, wind, ice and snow damage to metal roofing: thorough documentation with photos, an honest assessment of repair versus replacement, and help documenting your insurance claim from inspection to completed work. |
| Metal Roof Inspection | Free estimate | Complete metal roof inspections for homeowners, buyers and insurance requirements: fastener condition, seam integrity, flashing, hail dents, ice-dam damage and a straight answer on remaining service life with a written report. |
| Gutters for Metal Roofs | From $9/linear ft | Seamless gutter systems sized and mounted correctly for metal roofing: hangers that work with panel profiles, snow retention coordinated with the gutter line, and downspouts that carry spring melt and summer cloudbursts away from foundations on clay soil. |
| Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing | Free estimate | Metal roofing for barns, shops, machine sheds, churches, carports and light commercial buildings across Yellowstone County, from Laurel and Huntley farm buildings to Billings Heights shops and warehouses, with durable panel systems, insulation options and repairs. |
