Real work, real roofs — a sample of completed jobs
Metal roofing is a durable, energy-efficient roofing system that protects Middletown, NJ homes from coastal weather for 40–70 years. Unlike asphalt shingles that erode and flake under salt air, metal panels stand up to Nor'easters and humid summers. We install standing seam and metal shingle systems with hidden fasteners, so nothing rusts or backs out over time. Call Middletown Roofing Pros at 732-419-1350 for a free estimate and see if metal is right for your home.
Metal roofing works by interlocking steel or aluminum panels that shed water fast and resist wind uplift. A typical install starts with a tear-off of the old shingles, then we inspect the deck for rot or sag. We lay a self-adhered ice and water shield along eaves and valleys—critical near the Navesink River where ice dams form. Panels go on with concealed clips, not exposed fasteners, so there's no path for water to seep in. Seams are crimped or gasketed, and the whole system handles wind gusts over 140 mph. For a 2,000-square-foot home, expect 3–5 days of work, depending on roof complexity. We use 24-gauge steel with a Kynar finish that resists fading and chalking. Aluminum is an option for homes closest to Sandy Hook Bay, where salt air corrodes steel faster. Either way, you get a roof that won't curl, buckle, or lose granules like asphalt. And because metal reflects solar heat, your attic stays cooler in July—our humid summers make that a real comfort win. We've installed metal on ranches in Lincroft, colonials in Belford, and Cape Cods in Leonardo, so we know how to detail tricky valleys and dormers. Every job gets ring-shank nails for the starter course, staggered field courses, and a final walkthrough with photos.
Every metal roofing install from Middletown Roofing Pros includes a full tear-off of existing layers, inspection of the wood deck for rot or decay, and replacement of any damaged sheathing. We install a self-adhered underlayment at eaves, valleys, and penetrations, then set the metal panels with concealed fasteners. You get new flashing around chimneys and skylights, plus a ridge vent system that keeps your attic dry. We also include a 10-year workmanship warranty and a manufacturer warranty on the panels—typically 40 to 50 years. For an extra charge, we can add a snow guard system if your roof has steep pitches, or upgrade to a standing seam profile with a taller rib. We'll also remove and haul away the old shingles, so you don't have to rent a dumpster. Permits and inspections are handled by us, and we'll schedule the final inspection with the township. If you have a flat roof section, we can flash it into the metal seamlessly. And we'll do a magnetic sweep of the yard after the tear-off to catch every stray nail—your kids' feet will thank us.
How do you know if your roof needs metal? Look for these signs: granule loss in the gutters, shingles that curl or split at the edges, or daylight showing through the attic. If you see water stains on ceilings or walls, moisture is already wicking through the deck. A sagging roofline means the structure is compromised. If your asphalt roof is past 15 years old, it's near end-of-life wear. Metal roofing can be installed over a single layer of old shingles in some cases, but we recommend a tear-off for a clean substrate. Other red flags include rust spots on flashing, peeling paint on fascia, and moss or algae growth that holds moisture against the shingles. If you've had repeated leaks that keep coming back, that's a sign the deck is rotting underneath. Don't wait until water pours through the ceiling—a small leak can spall brick or corrode electrical wiring. Call us for a free inspection, and we'll tell you honestly whether metal is worth the investment or if a high-quality asphalt shingle will do the job. We've seen too many homeowners pay for a metal roof they didn't need, and we'd rather earn your trust than your check.
Step 1: Free inspection. We climb up, check the deck, measure your roof, and take photos. You get a written quote with no pressure. Step 2: Material selection. We show you steel and aluminum samples, colors, and profiles. You pick what fits your home and budget. Step 3: Tear-off. We strip the old shingles, inspect the deck, and replace any rotted boards. We use ring-shank nails for the starter course and stagger the field courses. Step 4: Underlayment. A self-adhered membrane goes down at eaves, valleys, and around penetrations. This is your backup if water ever gets under the panels. Step 5: Panel installation. We set the metal with hidden clips, crimp the seams, and flash every penetration. No exposed fasteners means no leaks. Step 6: Cleanup and inspection. We magnet-sweep the yard, haul away debris, and walk the roof with you. We also schedule the township inspection and give you all warranties in writing. The whole process takes 3 to 5 days for a typical home. We'll protect your landscaping with tarps and set up a dumpster in your driveway. You'll know exactly who's on your roof and when. And we'll text you photos as each step finishes, so you can see the progress without climbing a ladder.
