What Makes McElroy Metal Different?


Homeowners who need to replace their roofs face a vast array of roofing materials, styles, and vendors to work with. From small local businesses to national chains, you must find the right partner to work with you throughout your new roof journey.

The right roofing partner can help you navigate the roofing world to find the right roofing solution for your needs. With so many companies giving advice and guidance on roofing issues, it can be challenging to know who to trust.

At McElroy Metal, we are interested in helping homeowners find the best long-term roofing solution available, but we know that homeowners have many options.

To help you navigate all the roofing partners available, we’ve identified some of the essential criteria in selecting a roofing partner, the questions you can ask to narrow your search, and how McElroy Metal is different.

The Importance of Expertise and Experience

Whether you are retrofitting your existing roof or completely removing and replacing it, you must select a roofing partner with the experience and expertise to help you choose and install a new one.

Expertise and experience are the most important factors to consider when selecting a roofing partner.

Consider this: How often are you willing to replace your roof? How often are you ready to repair your roof? How much time and money are you willing to spend to keep your roofing looking good and functioning correctly?

If you work with a roofing partner that doesn't have the experience and expertise to not only help you select the right roofing system to meet your needs but also install it correctly, you could be faced with years of costly repairs and maintenance and a roof that you will have to replace sooner than you would have liked.

For instance, a properly installed metal roof will continue to look great while protecting your home from wind, hail, and fire for many decades with little to no maintenance or repairs.

Some questions you can ask when evaluating roofing partners include:

  • How long have you been installing metal roofs?
  • What different types of metal systems have you installed?
  • Which system is preferred and why?
