If you're thinking about metal roofing for your Elma home, here's the math: metal costs more upfront ($12-$22 per square foot versus $4-$8 for shingles), but metal lasts 2-3 times longer, cuts cooling costs 15-25%, and has virtually no maintenance. Over a 50-year span, metal is the cheaper option.
Our Metal Roofing Process
Metal Roofing Consultation
Free on-site consultation. We measure, assess your roof geometry, and present panel options with realistic pricing. Standing seam, corrugated, and metal shingle profiles. You pick the system that fits your home and budget.
Material Preparation
Panels ordered in your selected color, gauge, and profile. Custom lengths cut to minimize waste and on-site seaming. Trim pieces, flashing components, and underlayment specified for your roof.
Expert Installation
Standing seam panels installed with Z-clips on solid substrate or battens. Each panel locked into the adjacent panel with a mechanical seamer. No exposed fasteners, no maintenance points. Trim and flashing hand-formed for a custom fit.
Warranty & Completion
Final inspection, cleanup, and warranty registration. Your metal roof is the last roof your Elma home will ever need. We stand behind it with both manufacturer and workmanship warranties.

Why Choose Elma Roofing & Maintenance for Metal Roofing?
Dedicated Metal Crew
Our metal roofing installers do metal work exclusively. They're not shingle crews handling an occasional metal job. Tight seams, clean transitions, and proper flashing, every time.
Energy Savings
Reflective metal reduces cooling costs 15-25%. In IA heat, that adds up fast. Metal pays for itself over its lifetime in energy savings alone.
Class A Fire Rating
Metal roofing is non-combustible with a Class A fire rating. Added safety for homes in fire-prone areas or those seeking lower insurance premiums.
40-60 Year Lifespan
Standing seam metal is the longest-lasting residential roofing material. Install it once and never replace it again. The math works out better than replacing shingles twice.
