Metal Roofing
Our premium metal roofing systems combine durability with aesthetic appeal, using 24-gauge Galvalume-coated steel with Kynar paint finish. Designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, these roofs offer energy efficiency through superior thermal performance and reflectivity. Backed by decades of installation expertise, our metal roofs provide lifelong protection with minimal maintenance requirements.
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
This premium roofing solution features interlocking panels that create a watertight seal while allowing thermal expansion. The concealed fastening system enhances durability against wind uplift and weather exposure. Available in multiple profiles and colors, it combines modern aesthetics with proven performance in snow-prone regions.

Integrate renewable energy with our solar-ready metal roofing systems designed for optimal panel mounting. The durable steel substrate provides a stable platform for photovoltaic installations while maintaining roof integrity. This solution reduces energy costs while maintaining the structural benefits of metal roofing.
On-Site Roll Forming
We create custom metal panels at job sites using mobile roll-forming equipment, eliminating size limitations from factory production. This process ensures perfect panel fit for unique architectural features while maintaining material quality control. The result is reduced waste and faster installation times.

These guys did a superb job installing a seamless metal roof on my two story house. Dan explained to me that a roof should be as close to the same temperature on the inside of the roof as the outside and recommended a ridge vent and blown insulation in my attic. After the roof installation, I noticed a little bit of rain coming down the chimney in my attic and called Dan, he had a guy put more sealer around the chimney the next day. Thanks Dan for excellent service and professionalism!

I am really pleased with the work perkins crew did on my house. On rainy days with the package I went with the insulation they put on my roof helps dampen the sound of the rain hitting my roof I also have noticed it has been cooler in my house. I seen the work that they did to my house and the extra effort they put in to make their work even better I am so happy I got a Dan Perkins roof on my house.
I can't stop smiling at the roof on my house knowing the three layers of shingles that were on my house are now gone forever. Even is the hot heat the crew still worked thru it to get it done. So thanks again Dan perkins and crew for one heck of a good job.
