metal roof installation for Donahue homes, handled by a family roofing company that has been at it since 2002. Estimates are always free.
A metal roof is what Roofing Brothers is known for, and it has been since 2002. On a Donahue home that means standing seam or exposed fastener panels set over sound decking and real underlayment, with the ridge, valley and eave trim cut and fit on site rather than forced out of a box.
Not every Donahue roof needs the biggest job on the sheet. When we quote metal roof installation we tell you honestly whether a repair will hold, whether doing one section will do, or whether you are genuinely past that — and we would rather do the smaller job well.
Metal is our specialty, so if metal roof installation on your Donahue home opens the door to standing seam or a panel roof, we will price that right alongside the shingle option and let you compare the real numbers side by side.
The order we work in, and why each step matters more than it looks.
Panel type comes first — standing seam or exposed fastener — then color, then trim. We walk you through the trade offs on each one.
Rotten decking gets replaced and priced with you before it is covered up. Nobody wants to learn about that afterward.
Synthetic underlayment over the whole roof, ice and water shield in the valleys and at the eaves, then panels set square on the correct fastener spacing.
Every penetration gets a proper boot or flashing instead of a bead of sealant and a hope.
The things people want to know before they tell us to go ahead.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment, a Donahue metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed to open purlins on a barn.
Most Donahue metal roof jobs land between about $12,000 and $30,000 in 2026, depending on square footage, pitch, panel type and how much tear off is involved. Standing seam runs higher than exposed fastener panels. We measure before we quote and the estimate is free.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most Donahue homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Donahue metal roof can go over the top on purlins. Two layers or rot underneath and we tear off first — and we say so before you sign.
Honest words from customers, in their own wording.
"Wind peeled up the edge of our roof and they came out that same evening to cover it so the rain would not get in. Permanent repair the following week."
"Showed up when they said they would, both days. That alone puts them ahead of the last three contractors I hired."
"New gutters and guards after they did our roof. No more climbing up there every October to dig out pine needles by hand."
