A metal roof is the last roof you'll ever need. Standing seam metal lasts 40-60 years with virtually zero maintenance. It reflects solar heat, sheds hail and debris better than asphalt, and handles MI wind speeds that would rip shingles off. Six Lakes Roofing & Maintenance installs residential and commercial metal roofing throughout Six Lakes.
We install 24-gauge and 26-gauge steel panels in Galvalume and pre-painted finishes. Kynar 500 PVDF fluoropolymer coating is the gold standard. It resists fading, chalking, and color shift for 40+ years. Sheffield Metals and McElroy Metal are our primary suppliers, both with proven track records.
Our Metal Roofing Process
Metal Roofing Consultation
We discuss your goals, show you panel and color samples, and help you choose the right metal system for your Six Lakes home. Standing seam, corrugated, or metal shingle. Each has different aesthetics, costs, and performance characteristics.
Panel Ordering & Prep
Metal roof panels are custom-ordered to the exact lengths needed for your roof. Trim, flashing, and ridge cap pieces specified and fabricated for your specific roof geometry. Lead time is typically 2-3 weeks for custom orders.
Expert Installation
Standing seam panels installed with Z-clips on solid substrate or battens. Each panel locked into the adjacent panel with a mechanical seamer. No exposed fasteners, no maintenance points. Trim and flashing hand-formed for a custom fit.
Final Walkthrough
Every seam, fastener, and flashing point inspected. Your manufacturer warranty registered on completion day: 40-year paint finish, 25-year weathertight system warranty. Written workmanship warranty from Six Lakes Roofing & Maintenance.

Why Choose Six Lakes Roofing & Maintenance for Metal Roofing?
40-60 Year Lifespan
Standing seam metal is the longest-lasting residential roofing material. Install it once and never replace it again. The math works out better than replacing shingles twice.
Energy Savings
Reflective metal reduces cooling costs 15-25%. In MI heat, that adds up fast. Metal pays for itself over its lifetime in energy savings alone.
Metal Repairs Available
We repair all metal roof types, loose panels, failed sealant, rust spots, and transition leaks. Not every issue needs a full replacement.
Class A Fire Rating
Metal roofing is non-combustible with a Class A fire rating. Added safety for homes in fire-prone areas or those seeking lower insurance premiums.
