Do you sell directly to the public or just to contractors?

Yes. Homeowners can buy factory-direct to save on retail markups, while professional contractors have access to exclusive wholesale pricing.

Does a metal roof require a lot of maintenance?

Very little compared to asphalt shingles. Unlike shingles that can rot, crack, or grow unsightly moss, metal is resistant to pests and decay. We do recommend keeping the roof clear of debris.

Will a metal roof make my house hot?

No. Our panels use “Cool Roof” technology to reflect UV rays, acting as a radiant barrier that can reduce cooling costs by up to 25%.

Is metal roofing worth the investment compared to shingles?

Absolutely. Metal lasts 2–3 times longer, increases home resale value, and may lower insurance premiums, making it a lifetime asset.

How fast can I get my order?

We offer an industry-leading 48-hour turnaround on standard pickup orders because we manufacture everything on-site at our Jackson facility.

Will the metal rust or the color fade over time?

No. We use high-tensile American steel with Galvalume® and premium weather-resistant paint, all backed by a 40-year limited paint warranty.
