Straight answers and careful work on metal roof installation in Dayton, KY. Metal roofing is our specialty, but we do the whole roof.
We have been setting metal panels on houses, churches, barns and additions for over twenty years, and the crews serving Dayton install them the same way we always have. Straight lines, correct fastener spacing, and closures at the ridge so wind driven rain has nowhere to go.
Roofing Brothers has been doing metal roof installation since 2002, first around Morganton, North Carolina and now for Dayton homeowners through our network of local crews. The standard has not moved: measure it right, fasten it right, and never cut a corner where water can find it.
Before any metal roof installation starts in Dayton you will know the price, the material and the schedule. Estimates are always free, and nobody is going to push you to decide while somebody is still standing in your driveway.
How a job actually runs, from the first phone call to the last magnet pass over the driveway.
We measure the roof on site, count the valleys, hips and penetrations, and bring the color chart so you can hold it up against your siding.
Where the decking is sound and there is only one layer, we can often go over the top on purlins. We tell you which one your house calls for.
We keep panels straight to a line rather than to the eye, because a metal roof shows every bit of drift the moment the sun hits it.
Ridge caps, closures, drip edge and gable trim finish the roof and keep wind driven rain and wasps out from under the panels.
Questions homeowners ask us about this kind of work.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment, a Dayton metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed to open purlins on a barn.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Dayton metal roof can go over the top on purlins. Two layers or rot underneath and we tear off first — and we say so before you sign.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most Dayton homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
Most Dayton metal roof jobs land between about $12,000 and $30,000 in 2026, depending on square footage, pitch, panel type and how much tear off is involved. Standing seam runs higher than exposed fastener panels. We measure before we quote and the estimate is free.
Our reputation is just the roofs behind us.
"Cannot say enough about how careful they were around the flower beds. Everything got covered and nothing was trampled."
"Green metal over the whole house and the carport. Looks sharp, and it is quiet inside when it rains, which honestly surprised me."
"Tore off two layers of old shingles and found rotten decking underneath. They showed me the boards, told me what the change would cost, and let me decide before going ahead."
