“We needed a metal roof for our new equipment barn out on the rural side of the county and these guys knocked it out fast. The crew of four had the whole thing dried in before the afternoon storms rolled through, which honestly impressed me. No leaks, no loose panels, and they cleaned up every last screw off the ground.”
Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing
“We were worried we'd have to tear everything down on our old Victorian porch, but they did a metal-over-shingles retrofit instead and saved us a ton of hassle. It looks sharp and the flashing around the porch line is sealed up tight. Took a couple days longer than quoted, but the price held and the work is solid.”
Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit)
“Our old farm shed had a rusted-out red roof that was leaking on everything. Wilmington Metal Roofing replaced the whole thing with red corrugated panels and it looks brand new. They even matched the color so it blends with the rest of the property. Couldn't be happier.”
Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing
“Went with standing seam for our new build and the finish came out beautiful, the hidden fasteners make such a clean look. The crew walked me through the panel layout before they started and finished on the timeline they gave us. Relieved to have a roof I won't have to think about for decades.”
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
“Had a leak creeping in around the chimney on our red metal roof and they tracked it down quick. Turns out it was the flashing, not the panels, and they resealed it and did a full inspection while they were up there. No more drips and the price was fair.”
Metal Roof Repair
“Just had our colonial done and I keep catching myself staring at it from the street. The crew was respectful, showed up when they said they would, and the cleanup was spotless, not a single stray screw in the yard. Honestly surprised how smooth the whole thing went.”
Metal Roof Installation
“Chose metal shingle roofing for our house and it's a huge upgrade from the old asphalt. The crew of three finished in about four days including all the trim work. They did leave a bit of debris in the flower bed, but they came back the next morning to finish the cleanup without me even asking.”
Metal Shingle Roofing
“They installed new gutters to go with our metal roof and matched the color perfectly. The difference is night and day, no more water sheeting off the edge and flooding the walkway. Grateful for how thorough they were with the downspout placement.”

Homeowners searching for a metal roofing contractor near me in Wilmington need more than a crew with a truck. They need someone who understands the Cape Fear region's particular mix of salt air, hurricane-season wind, and historic housing stock. Wilmington Metal Roofing is a network of licensed, insured local contractors who install, replace, re-roof, and repair metal roofing systems across the area. From the steep-gabled Victorian and Queen Anne homes in the historic downtown blocks to the brick ranches under live oaks in Forest Hills and the elevated coastal cottages near Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, and Kure Beach, we match the system to the structure and the site.
Our work covers metal roof installation, full replacement, retrofit over existing shingles, and ongoing repair, including the large stock of aging exposed-fastener roofs in Leland, Ogden, Porters Neck, Myrtle Grove, and Hampstead where fasteners are backing out and sealing washers are drying. Whether you are comparing systems or dealing with an active leak, call (910) 218-9134 for straight guidance and a free estimate.
Most metal roof leaks in Wilmington trace back to a handful of causes, and the number one cause on 15 to 30 year old exposed-fastener roofs is fastener back-out. The screws themselves do not fail first; the EPDM sealing washer under each head dries, shrinks, and cracks under years of sun and heat, and water finds its way past the head and into the deck. Seam separation from thermal movement opens panels slightly as they expand and contract through hot humid summers and cooler winters. Failed pipe boots and flashing at chimneys, skylights, and valleys let water in at the most vulnerable transitions. Wind-lifted panels after a storm, and punctures from fallen limbs, are common in the live oak and pine canopy around Carolina Heights, Winoca Terrace, and the historic districts.
Ignoring a small leak is expensive. Water tracks along purlins and decking, often showing up on the ceiling far from the actual entry point, and it rots sheathing and saturates insulation before the stain appears. That is why we start with a metal roof leak repair inspection that finds the source rather than patching the symptom. In many cases a full screw replacement and re-fastening with new washered fasteners restores a watertight roof for a fraction of replacement cost. When the deck or panels are too far gone, we say so plainly and walk you through replacement options.
Our honest repair-versus-replace call is based on panel condition, fastener age, deck soundness, and how many problem areas exist. If repair is the right answer, we will tell you. If replacement makes more sense, we will show you why. Call (910) 218-9134 to schedule a repair assessment, or request a free estimate and we will document what we find.
We install the full range of metal systems, and the right one depends on your home, your budget, and how much maintenance you want over the long run. Standing Seam Metal Roofing uses concealed clips and has no exposed screws to service, which is why it carries a premium and suits high-value homes and coastal builds. Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing is the economical workhorse for cabins, barns, shops, and agricultural buildings, though its fasteners need servicing over the life of the roof. Metal Shingle Roofing and Stone-Coated Steel Roofing give a more traditional look, while Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing handles accents and historic profiles.
When the existing deck is sound, Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) can be a legitimate way to save on tear-off, subject to code limits on existing layers. When the deck is soft or the flashing is compromised, tear-off and full Metal Roof Replacement is the safer path. We will tell you which applies to your roof.
Metal roof pricing in Wilmington is usually quoted per square foot for installations, while repairs are often flat-rate. The variables that move the number are the panel system and metal gauge, roof pitch and complexity, tear-off versus recover, decking condition, and access around landscaping, live oaks, and tight historic lots. Because those factors vary so much from home to home, we give typical ranges and then confirm with an on-site look. Final pricing depends on the roof and site conditions, and we put that in writing before work begins.
Some carriers offer premium discounts for metal or impact-rated roofs, but that is between you and your insurer and is never a promise from us. For a clearer picture of how systems compare, see our pricing page, then request a free estimate or a free roof inspection so we can price your actual roof rather than a generic average.
After a storm, we inspect the roof and provide written documentation with photos that you may submit to your own insurer. We are not an insurance adjuster or agent, coverage decisions rest with your carrier, and we make no promise that a claim will be approved. We do not and cannot waive, absorb, discount, or pay any deductible, and we never frame a roof as free or no cost to you. Our role is to document conditions accurately and complete the work your carrier authorizes.
On permits, this is informational only. In most jurisdictions a permit is commonly required for a full replacement or re-roof, but requirements, fees, and inspection steps vary by city and county. A permit is commonly required for a full replacement, but requirements vary by city, and recover over existing shingles is limited by code to a set number of existing layers that must be verified locally. Historic district and HOA design review can also restrict panel profile and color, which is worth checking early in the planning process. Requirements vary, so always verify with the Wilmington building or planning department before starting your project. For documentation or to schedule an inspection, contact us.
