Why DFW Homeowners Are

Common Questions
We install metal and synthetic slate roofing throughout the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex — including Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Southlake, Westlake, and 25+ other DFW-area cities. See our full service area list for your specific city.
We install five systems: standing seam steel, stone-coated steel, copper, R-panel, and Brava synthetic slate/tile. Standing seam is our most popular system for its hidden-fastener line and 50–70 year lifespan; stone-coated steel and Brava synthetic slate give homeowners a traditional shingle or tile profile with steel- or composite-level durability; copper is our most premium option; R-panel is the most affordable entry into metal roofing.
Installed cost ranges from about $7 per square foot for R-panel up to $40+ per square foot for copper, depending on material — see the pricing table above for a full breakdown by system. Most DFW homeowners land between $25,000 and $70,000 for a full metal or synthetic slate roof, refined into a firm number after a free satellite-based estimate.
Standing seam typically lasts 50–70 years and copper 100+ years, with stone-coated steel and R-panel in the 40–70 year range and Brava synthetic slate warrantied 40–50 years — all well beyond the 15–20 year lifespan of asphalt shingles. Every system we install is Class 4 impact-rated, and every project carries a 10-year workmanship warranty.
For most DFW homeowners, yes. North Texas sees frequent hail and severe wind events that make asphalt shingles a recurring expense rather than a long-term asset. Metal and synthetic slate systems carry Class 4 impact ratings, often qualify for meaningful insurance discounts, and are installed once instead of replaced every 8–10 years like asphalt.
