If you're thinking about metal roofing for your Ringsted home, here's the math: metal costs more upfront ($12-$22 per square foot versus $4-$8 for shingles), but metal lasts 2-3 times longer, cuts cooling costs 15-25%, and has virtually no maintenance. Over a 50-year span, metal is the cheaper option.
We install 24-gauge and 26-gauge steel panels in Galvalume and pre-painted finishes. Kynar 500 PVDF fluoropolymer coating is the gold standard. It resists fading, chalking, and color shift for 40+ years. Sheffield Metals and McElroy Metal are our primary suppliers, both with proven track records.
Our Metal Roofing Process
Design & Material Selection
We discuss your goals, show you panel and color samples, and help you choose the right metal system for your Ringsted home. Standing seam, corrugated, or metal shingle. Each has different aesthetics, costs, and performance characteristics.
Material Preparation
Your panels, clips, trim, and flashing fabricated to spec. Materials staged at your Ringsted property the day before installation. Everything verified against the project scope before install day.
Professional Metal Crew
Installation by our dedicated metal crew, not a shingle crew with a metal job on the side. These installers do metal roofing every week. Seams are tight, transitions are clean, and every penetration is properly flashed.
Final Walkthrough
Every seam, fastener, and flashing point inspected. Your manufacturer warranty registered on completion day: 40-year paint finish, 25-year weathertight system warranty. Written workmanship warranty from Ringsted Roofing & Maintenance.

Why Choose Ringsted Roofing & Maintenance for Metal Roofing?
40-60 Year Lifespan
Standing seam metal is the longest-lasting residential roofing material. Install it once and never replace it again. The math works out better than replacing shingles twice.
Class 4 Impact Resistance
UL 2218 Class 4 rated. Handles the largest hail without compromising the waterproof system. Often qualifies for insurance premium discounts in IA.
Class A Fire Rating
Metal roofing is non-combustible with a Class A fire rating. Added safety for homes in fire-prone areas or those seeking lower insurance premiums.
Energy Savings
Reflective metal reduces cooling costs 15-25%. In IA heat, that adds up fast. Metal pays for itself over its lifetime in energy savings alone.
