Metal Roof

Metal. The Ultimate Roofing for Your Seattle Home 

If you have noticed more metal roofing being used by Seattle contractors and homeowners, you’re not mistaken! It’s more popular than ever before. Virtually no maintenance, a 50 year warranty, thermal efficiency, and contemporary styling, make metal a very attractive alternative to other types of roofing. Because of this, Seattle’s top architects are designing more homes in 2018 using standing seam metal panels.

Benefits of Metal Roofing:

Style

A vast array of styles are now available giving you the look of shakes, slate, or tile. These natural materials may have appealing aesthetics, but have many inherent drawbacks as well, such as a short life span and high maintenance as is the case with natural wood shakes, fragility with clay or cement tiles, or the formidable cost of slate. With the new designer styles you are able to have all the advantages of metal and with the style you want.

Energy Efficiency

With high efficiency paint coatings, such as Kynar, a metal roof can save you up to 40% of energy costs. All the panels we use have an ENERGY STAR rating. Therefore, your home will be substantially cooler in the summer. This is especially true in attics and upper floors which are prone to over heating in hot summer months.

Reduces Insurance Costs

Unlike flammable materials such as asphalt composition or wood shake roofs, metal roofing is fire resistant. It’s also much more wind and storm resistant. These attributes are recognized by insurance companies and may save you up to 35% in insurance premiums.

Virtually Maintenance Free

Smooth surfaced panels resist collecting most debris. Occasional washing with with water and a mild detergent is all that is necessary to keep your metal roof looking like new. This feature is a huge advantage in Seattle, and the Northwest in general, where large amounts of debris from trees and moss may be collecting on your current, requiring constant cleaning.

Longevity

How would you like a roof that is so durable that it may be the last one you ever need to install on your home? A metal roof can last three times as long as a composition roof. Despite an initial expenditure higher than that of a basic composition roof, metal roofing is a much better value in the long run.

Environmentally Responsible

Steel is the number one recycled material in the world. Old composition roofing virtually always ends up in our landfills as waste. Conversely, residential metal roofing is made from a minimum of 30% recycled material. In addition, because moss does not grow on metal the use of harsh chemical moss inhibitors is not necessary. You will be saving money and the environment!

All these features have persuaded us at John Michael Roofing to recommend metal as the smartest option for your new roof.

John was prompt with the quote and was competitive with pricing. We noticed a complicated roof nearby at one of our neighbors and they recommended a positive experience from start to finish. We experienced just that, the team got going and finished up our steep roof within a few days. Had no trouble through a record breaking month of rain.

We have a 6-year-old house that had a (flat) torch-down roof. It was poorly done, and we had several leaks. I had 4 different contractors out to bid the job, and after talking with all of them and looking at reviews, we decided to go with JMR. John was very patient as we spent over a year trying to get permits and costs for putting in a roof-top deck, only to find out that the costs of re-enforcing the roof, permits, and compliance ended up being way over our budget. We finally decided on doing a PVC roof with a hatch for access, and within a month of making that decision we now have a great new roof. John was fantastic - understanding, quick to respond, and willing to work with us throughout the whole process. The final cost was very reasonable, and the quality of work is true to his ratings. There are a lot of roofing companies / contractors out there - it pays to find one that takes pride in their work and is willing to work with their customers. Highly recommended!

John and his team were a pleasure to work with. Our new roof looks great and gave us confidence moving in to a harsh winter.

Excellent work from a solid team - love our new roof! We had been talking about getting a new roof so we had 3 companies come out to bid it. We knew instantly we like John Michael the best and were thrilled when he was also the most affordable. He and his team were extremely professional and the work was exactly what we'd hoped for. They even came out before the scheduled start when we sprung a leak so they could patch it. We also had them install new skylights as well as gutters. Highly recommend them!

Like a lot of homeowners, I'm careful and picky about who I hire to work on my home. When it came time to have my house re-roofed, I did a lot of research and due diligence. I decided to go with John Michael Roofing after meeting and consulting with him - in fact, since I also needed to update my rain gutters, and he could coordinate this too, I had him do both roof and gutters because I developed a lot of confidence in him. The results completely validated that confidence: I have the best roof and gutters I could ever hope for at a very fair price. Believe me, if you're considering home improvements of this kind, you need to meet with John Michael Roofing. - Aron

I just bought a house and knew that the gutters and roof needed some work. My gutters were 30 years old and falling off the house, my chimney was rotting away, the gas heater exhaust had rusted apart, and some unknown animal had chewed several holes in the siding under the roof line. John and his crew made all of these problems go away quickly and for a very reasonable price. I must have had six roofing contractors come out to my house to give me estimates, and John was the only one willing to take care of my entire roof and it's problems in a high quality and reasonably priced way. He takes pride in his work and treats your roof like it's his own. I can't recommend him highly enough for any roofing job, large or small.

John put a roof on our home about 8 years ago and did a terrific job. We have a 1926 Tudor with a steep roof that had cedar shingles on it. John and his crew were very professional. They replaced it with a composition roof that looks great! Highly recommend John Michael’s 𝐑𝐨𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐠.

After calling several places to repair my roof, I was very disappointed that no one either returned my calls, or follow up on an appointment. When I looked on Yelp and found John Michael's reviews I called them and even though the message said that they were very busy, I decided to give it a try and I am so happy that I did, because they were the ones who took me seriously, and they did a great job. They are very professional and did the job as expected. I highly recommend them

John Michael and crew did an incredible job - replaced our steeply-pitched roof in its entirety (and two skylights), attended to some patching of potential leaky areas on the chimney and associated brickwork, and all at a super price. We started with a leak and a panicked phone call to JMR, on a Saturday, just prior to John leaving for his honeymoon. Antonio was over in 45 minutes, tarped the offending area and John called us upon his return from his honeymoon to schedule the work. We hadn't even hired them at that point, mind you - and their quick and kind response at an untimely and rain-soaked week was incredible. Thank you, JMR, for your hard work! Your crew is unparalleled!
