“Had them put a metal roof on our equipment hangar out by the edge of town and they knocked it out in three days. The crew of four was organized, and the ribbed panels look sharp. No leaks after the first big rain, so I'm relieved.”
Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing
“Our covered back porch had a metal roof that was leaking at the seams and I figured we'd need a full tear-off. They came out, re-fastened a bunch of screws, replaced the flashing, and sealed it up for way less than I expected. Two hours and done.”
Metal Roof Repair
“We've got a barn next to the cornfield that had old rusted panels and cedar rapids metal roofing replaced the whole thing with new ribbed panels. They worked around our schedule and cleaned up every last screw and scrap. Really appreciated that with the equipment parked nearby.”
Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing
“Went with standing seam on our house and the finished product looks fantastic. Took about a week for the full install on our 2,000 square foot ranch. Only gripe is they left a few metal shavings in the driveway, but they came back and swept it the next day.”
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
“We had a wood stove chimney that needed flashing redone where it met our metal roof, and these guys knew exactly what they were doing. No more drips down the flue during storms. Honest pricing too.”
Flashing, Chimney & Skylight Repair
“Instead of tearing off our old shingles we did the retrofit and saved a ton. The crew laid the new metal right over the top and finished our 1,500 square foot house in two days. Surprised how fast it went and how quiet the house is now.”
Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit)
“Full replacement on our place after the old roof finally gave out. They walked me through the options, hauled away all the old material, and the cleanup was spotless. Grateful we went with them.”
Metal Roof Replacement
“New metal roof on our brick house and it completely changed the look. The install team was professional and the color match on the trim is perfect. Small scheduling delay at the start, but the work itself was top notch.”

Cedar Rapids homeowners searching for a metal roofing contractor near me know that the right crew matters as much as the panel. Cedar Rapids Metal Roofing is a local contractor serving Cedar Rapids, Marion, Hiawatha, Fairfax, Robins, and the surrounding Corridor, handling metal roof installation, replacement, re-roofs, and repairs on homes and outbuildings across the region.
This is roof country that asks a lot of any material: steep pitches on Victorian and Queen Anne homes near Czech Village and Wellington Heights, heavy tree cover from burr oaks and sugar maples, brutal freeze-thaw cycles, hail, straight-line wind, and a large stock of aging screw-down roofs. From 1940s ranches in Kenwood Park to newer subdivision homes in Marion and farm shops out toward Mount Vernon, we match the system to the structure and the weather it actually faces.
Most metal roof repair calls in Cedar Rapids come down to a short list of failures, and the leading one is fasteners. On 15 to 30 year old exposed-fastener roofs, the EPDM sealing washers under each screw dry out, shrink, and crack, and once that seal is gone water finds the hole. Seam separation is next: panels expand and contract with every freeze-thaw cycle, and over time the seams work loose. Failed pipe boots and flashing at chimneys, skylights, and valleys let water in at the most vulnerable transitions, while wind-lifted panels and punctures from fallen limbs round out the list.
Ignoring a small leak is expensive. Water tracks along purlins and decking far from the actual entry point, so by the time a stain shows on the ceiling, sheathing may already be rotting and insulation soaked. That is why we chase the source, not the stain. Our metal roof leak repair service starts with a proper inspection and a straight answer about what failed and why.
The honest call between repair and replacement is often simpler than homeowners expect. If the panels are sound and the problem is fasteners and seals, a full screw replacement with new sealing washers frequently restores a watertight roof for a fraction of replacement cost. If panels are perforated, severely deformed, or the deck beneath is compromised, replacement makes more sense. Call (319) 261-9587 to talk it through, or request a free estimate and we will tell you plainly which option fits.
We install the full range of metal systems, and the right one depends on the building. Standing Seam Metal Roofing uses concealed clips and no exposed fasteners, making it the premium choice for primary homes. Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing is the economical workhorse for barns, shops, and outbuildings. We also install Metal Shingle Roofing, Stone-Coated Steel Roofing, and Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing for accents and historic profiles.
The honest comparison: standing seam costs more up front but has no exposed screws to maintain, while screw-down costs less and needs its fasteners serviced over its life. Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) is a legitimate option when the deck is sound and code allows the existing layers; when it is not, a full tear-off and Metal Roof Replacement is the right path.
Metal roof projects are typically quoted per square foot, while repairs are often flat-rate, and the range depends on the panel system and metal gauge, roof pitch and complexity, tear-off versus recover, decking condition, and access. We give typical ranges rather than fixed numbers because final pricing depends on the roof and site conditions. Some carriers may offer premium discounts for metal or impact-rated roofs, though that is between you and your insurer.
For a clear picture of what drives the number, see our pricing page, then request a free estimate or free roof inspection so we can quote your actual roof instead of a guess.
After hail or wind, we inspect the roof and provide written documentation with photos that you may submit to your own insurer. We are not an insurance adjuster or agent, coverage decisions rest with your carrier, and we make no promise that a claim will be approved. On permits, we keep it informational: in most jurisdictions a permit is commonly required for a full replacement or re-roof, but requirements vary by city, and historic district or HOA design review can affect panel profile and color choices.
Requirements vary, always verify with the Cedar Rapids building or planning department before starting your project. For inspection and documentation questions, contact us.
