Roofing ServicesThe last roof most houses ever need.
Metal costs more on install day and less every year after. For a county that budgets for hail, the fifty-year math deserves a serious look, so here it is in plain numbers.
Why metal, here specifically
Wichita is exactly where metal earns its price.
- Hail resistance in a different class. Our systems carry the highest impact ratings issued; large hail may cosmetically dent a panel but almost never opens the roof.
- 50-year service life against asphalt's 15 to 20 in Kansas sun. One roof instead of three is the entire argument.
- Wind ratings past 140 mph on mechanically seamed panels, with no tabs to crease or lose.
- Insurance upside. Some carriers discount premiums for impact-rated roofs; ask your agent, and we will provide the spec sheet.
The honest tradeoffs: install cost runs roughly 2 to 3 times asphalt, hail can leave cosmetic dents, and a good install crew matters far more than the panel brand. All three are covered straight in the comparison.
Two systems
Pick the profile, keep the protection.
Metal shingle & stone-coated
Metal strength in the silhouette of architectural shingles or shakes. For neighborhoods and owners who want the protection without the panel look.

The monthly number
Fifty-year roof, monthly-payment math.
Financed on approved credit, a standing seam roof on a typical Wichita home frames out around $189/mo (illustrative). Against a $115/mo asphalt roof you will buy twice more, the gap is smaller than the sticker suggests.
