  • My ceiling had water spots so I reached out to Next Gen, and they found the problem with a leakage in the roof connecting to the house. Anthony came and fixed it within 2 hours and was significantly better in price + quality than any of the other people we had looking at it. They will be my go-to for a while, as well as for my friends and family, and Anthony is especially kind!

Where a metal roof makes sense

  • A whole house where you want a roof that lasts a very long time
  • Porch roofs and low-slope additions
  • Barns, sheds, garages and outbuildings
  • Older farmhouses that had metal roofs to begin with
  • Homes under trees that drop a lot of leaves and needles
  • Accent roofs over bay windows and entryways

Why people choose metal

Metal roofs shed water and snow quickly, hold up well in high wind, and do not rot, curl or lose grit the way shingles do. They are also light, and many reflect more summer heat than a dark shingle roof. On the rural properties west of Ellicott City, where farmhouses and barns often had metal roofs to begin with, a new metal roof can look exactly right.

Things to know before you decide

A metal roof costs more up front than a shingle roof. Rain is a little louder on some types, although solid roof boards and underlayment underneath make a big difference. And metal has to be put on carefully: the panels move as they heat and cool, so the fasteners, the seams and the trim around chimneys and walls all have to allow for that.

The inspection and the quote are free

We come out, get on the roof, and tell you what we found and what it would cost to put right. There is no charge for that visit, and you are under no obligation to book the work.

Porches, additions and outbuildings

Metal is not all or nothing. Plenty of homeowners put metal on a porch roof, a low addition, a bay window or a detached garage, and keep shingles on the main house. If you are not sure whether metal suits your roof, we will look at it for free and give you an honest answer and a free quote for each option.

Common questions.

Is a metal roof louder in the rain?

It can be slightly louder, depending on the panel type and what is underneath. Over solid roof boards and underlayment, most people barely notice a difference.

Can metal go on a low-slope roof?

Some metal roof systems are made for lower slopes, like porch roofs and additions. Very flat roofs usually need a flat roof membrane instead. We will tell you which fits.

Can I mix metal and shingles on one house?

Yes. Metal on a porch or addition with shingles on the main roof is common and can look very good when the colors are chosen together.
