| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Metal Roof Installation | From $8/sq ft | Complete metal roof installation for homes across Escondido and North County: panel systems built for intense inland heat, UV, Santa Ana winds and wildfire embers. Installed over high-temperature underlayment with proper attic ventilation and careful flashing for a 40-60 year service life. |
| Standing Seam Metal Roofing | From $10/sq ft | Concealed-fastener standing seam systems, the premium choice for Escondido homes. Panels roll-formed to length and mechanically seamed or snap-locked, with no exposed screws to loosen as inland heat expands and contracts the roof every day. Strong wind resistance, a Class A fire-rated assembly option and a cool reflective finish. |
| Metal Roof Replacement | From $9/sq ft | Full tear-off and replacement of sun-baked shingle, cracked concrete tile or end-of-life metal roofs: old roofing hauled away, decking inspected and repaired, then a complete new metal system installed. Some insurers offer discounts for fire-resistant roofs, so ask yours. |
| Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) | From $7/sq ft | A new metal roof installed directly over your existing asphalt shingles, with no tear-off, less waste and lower cost. A practical option on Escondido ranch homes with sound decking. We check deck condition first and tell you honestly when tear-off is the better call. |
| Metal Roof Repair | From $450 | Repair of damaged, loose or wind-hit metal roofing: replacing dented or punctured panels, resealing seams and penetrations, and fixing failed flashing before the first big winter rain turns a small problem into interior damage. |
| Metal Roof Leak Repair | From $450 | Priority leak response for metal roofs: leaks traced to their true source (failed fasteners, seam separation, flashing gaps, pipe boots and skylight curbs) and fixed right, not just caulked over. Emergency tarping available before and during winter storms. |
| Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening | From $750 | Escondido's inland heat and big day-to-night swings expand and contract metal roofs hundreds of times a year, so screws back out and sun-baked washers crack on older exposed-fastener roofs. Oversized screws and UV-resistant washers fix it for a fraction of replacement cost. |
| Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing | From $5.50/sq ft | Exposed-fastener metal roofing (corrugated, R-panel and 5V), the budget-friendly workhorse for garages, carports, barns, horse shelters and workshops across North County acreage. Quality panels in reflective cool-roof colors, installed with correct screw patterns and closures that keep out wind-blown dust and ash. |
| Metal Shingle Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Metal shingles that deliver the look of concrete tile, slate or shake with the lifespan of steel, a favorite for Escondido homeowners who want fire resistance and light weight without the standing seam look. Walkable and wind-rated for Santa Ana gusts. |
| Stone-Coated Steel Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Stone-coated steel systems combining steel strength with a textured traditional finish: excellent wind and hail performance, Class A fire rating and profiles that mimic the Spanish barrel tile and shake looks common on Escondido homes, at a fraction of concrete tile's weight. |
| Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing | From $20/sq ft | Copper, zinc and aluminum roofing for accents, porches, bay windows and full architectural roofs: premium metals that develop a living patina and last generations in the dry Southern California air. Custom fabrication for the fine details. |
| Metal Roof Coating & Painting | From $2.50/sq ft | Restoration of sun-faded, chalking or surface-rusted metal roofs: surface prep, rust treatment and high-performance reflective coating systems that extend roof life 10-15 years, restore color and cut summer heat gain without replacement. |
| Flashing, Chimney & Skylight Repair | From $600 | Repair and custom fabrication of flashing around chimneys, skylights, valleys, vents and wall transitions, the number one leak point on older Escondido roofs when sun and heat break down old sealant. In-house bent flashing for a precise watertight fit. |
| Snow Guards & Ice Protection | From $1,200 | Snow is not an Escondido concern, so this service focuses on what the inland valley really throws at a metal roof: Santa Ana wind uplift, loose ridge and edge details, and wildfire embers. Extra edge fastening, ridge securement and ember-resistant vent and eave closures keep a roof tight. Honest guidance on what yours needs. |
| Storm & Wind Damage Repair | Free inspection | Repair of wind, fire-season debris and winter storm damage to metal roofing: thorough documentation with photos, an honest assessment of repair versus replacement, and help documenting your insurance claim from inspection to completed work after Santa Ana wind events. |
| Metal Roof Inspection | Free estimate | Complete metal roof inspections for homeowners, buyers and insurance requirements: fastener condition, seam integrity, flashing, coating and UV wear, ember-vulnerable gaps at vents and eaves, and a straight answer on remaining service life with a written report. |
| Gutters for Metal Roofs | From $9/linear ft | Seamless gutter systems sized and mounted correctly for metal roofing: hangers that work with panel profiles and downspouts that carry the sudden downpours of Southern California winter storms away from stucco walls and hillside foundations; noncombustible materials for fire-prone lots. |
| Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing | Free estimate | Metal roofing for barns, packing sheds, horse shelters, wineries, churches and light commercial buildings across North County, from avocado and citrus ranches in Valley Center to industrial shops in Escondido, with durable panel systems, insulation options and repairs. |
