Metal Roofing

Standing seam and stone-coated steel roofing – the ultimate in longevity, energy efficiency, and storm protection for Wichita homes.

Wichita's Residential Metal Roofing Specialists

Metal roofing is no longer just for barns and commercial buildings. Modern standing seam and stone-coated steel systems offer the durability of industrial metal with the curb appeal of traditional shingles or shakes. At Wichita Roofing Pros, we install residential metal roofing systems designed specifically for the Kansas climate – high-wind rated, impact-resistant, and energy-reflective to keep your attic cooler in July.

Standing seam panels feature concealed fasteners – no exposed screws to back out or leak over time. The vertical ribs create clean, modern lines that complement contemporary and traditional architecture alike. Stone-coated steel (steel sheet with embedded stone granules) mimics the look of asphalt shingles, clay tile, or cedar shake while offering the same 50+ year lifespan as standing seam.

Metal is the most hail-resistant roofing material available. A Class 4 impact rating is standard on all our metal products, and many insurance carriers offer premium discounts of 25–35% for metal roofs – often enough to offset the higher upfront cost within 5–7 years. If you plan to stay in your home for 20+ years and want the lowest lifetime cost and highest storm protection, metal is the answer.

Solid or Batten Underlayment

High-temperature synthetic underlayment or a vertical strapping (batten) system creates a drainage plane beneath the metal panels – no trapped moisture.

Concealed Fastener Panels

Standing seam panels clip onto hidden brackets or are fastened through side-laps with color-matched screws – no exposed penetrations on the panel face.

Ridge

Valley & Flashing Trim

All transitions – ridges, hips, valleys, chimneys, and walls – receive pre-finished metal trim that matches the panel color and directs water cleanly into gutters.

Your Metal Roof Replacement Process

Metal installation requires different techniques than shingles. Here is how we handle your residential metal roof from tear-off to final clip.

Structural Assessment & Panel Order

We verify decking thickness (minimum 15/32″ plywood or strapping capability) and order custom-cut panel lengths to eliminate horizontal seams on your roof.

01

Tear-Off & Underlayment

Old roofing removed, decking repaired. Either full synthetic underlayment (for direct-to-deck install) or 1×4 strapping (for batten/counter-batten ventilation system).

02

Panel Installation & Clipping

Panels are lifted to the roof and clipped into place starting at the eave. Each panel overlaps the previous by a full rib. Ridge cap and flashing are installed after the field.

03

Cleanup & Magnetic Sweep

All metal cut-offs, screws, and debris are removed. A final pass with a magnetic sweeper ensures your yard and driveway are free of any sharp metal scraps.

Residential Roofing FAQ

How long does a residential metal roof last in Wichita?
Standing seam and stone-coated steel roofs routinely last 50–70 years in the Kansas climate. The paint finish (Kynar 500 or similar) is warranted for 40 years against fading and chalking. The steel substrate carries a lifetime warranty against perforation. Unlike asphalt shingles, metal does not lose granules or curl – the primary aging factors are paint fading and dent accumulation from very large hail. Even then, a 50-year functional life is typical.
Yes – significantly. In the Wichita market, metal roofs are a top-tier upgrade that buyers recognize as permanent. Appraisers often assign a 10–15% value premium compared to an equivalent asphalt roof. Additionally, many insurers offer transferable premium discounts to the next owner, which is a genuine selling point. Homes with metal roofs also sell faster – the buyer knows they won’t face a roofing expense for decades.
No – not with modern underlayment and attic insulation. A metal roof installed directly over solid decking with synthetic underlayment produces sound levels comparable to asphalt shingles during moderate rain. Stone-coated steel is nearly identical to shingles because the stone granule layer dampens noise. For standing seam, a layer of insulation or the existing attic air gap absorbs the sound. You will not notice a meaningful difference.
We strongly advise against it. Installing metal over existing shingles traps moisture, prevents deck inspection, and creates an uneven surface that leads to oil-canning (wavy appearance) and fastener stress. Most metal manufacturers void their warranty if installed over an existing roof. We always tear off to bare deck – the extra labor cost is small compared to the risk of premature failure.
No – the opposite. Metal roofs are highly reflective. Our standing seam panels are available with cool-pigment coatings that reflect up to 70% of solar radiation, reducing attic temperatures by 20–30°F compared to dark asphalt. Stone-coated steel also meets Energy Star requirements. Lower attic temperatures mean less heat transfers into your living space, reducing AC load and energy bills by 10–15% during Wichita summers.
