Metal roofs, explained by the people who install them

Carolyn Coger Roofing installs, repairs and replaces metal roofs across Dallas and the surrounding cities. This site is where we write down what we explain on driveways every week: why one panel profile suits a low-slope patio cover and another suits a steep two-story gable, what hail actually does to steel, and what a fair quote for a metal roof in North Texas should include.

Who this is for

Homeowners weighing metal against another round of asphalt shingles, people who just watched a spring storm come through and want to know whether that dent matters, and building owners with a shop, barn or commercial roof that has started to leak at the screws. You do not need to know the difference between a snap-lock and a mechanically seamed panel. By the end of a guide here, you will.

Expect plain answers about materials, gauges, coatings, underlayment and ventilation, the way Texas heat and hail change those choices, and what maintenance a metal roof really needs over forty years. When a question needs someone on a ladder, the contact page tells you how to reach us.
