We Are Experienced with Residential Metal Roofing

We’ve been operating since 2008, and between owners Alan and Margaret, we have over 70 years of combined experience in construction and remodeling. Along with this, we specialize in metal roofing. We don’t just do it as a side operation. If homeowners would like us to install a metal roof, they can be sure that experts will handle the job.

We Are Reputable

Some metal roofing companies engage in what’s known as storm chasing. After a sizable storm hits, the company will go to the site and try to sell metal roofs to homeowners. They will typically use fear-mongering and pressure tactics to suggest that their roof won’t last much longer and that they must replace it immediately. If the homeowner does decide to get it replaced, the storm chaser will usually rush the installation process or cut corners so they can move on to the next storm-affected city.

At AM Burney Exteriors, we don’t storm chase. Instead, we serve customers in Minnesota and Wisconsin who are interested in a metal roof. In our free estimate appointment, we will answer homeowner questions, discuss product options, and conduct detailed measurements and calculations. We will never use high-pressure sales tactics like storm chasers during this appointment. Instead, we provide a same-day estimate, and homeowners are free to decide whether they would like to move forward with us.

We Have Customer-Focused Sales Practices

Besides storm chasing, another thing we’ve observed with companies is that they’ll charge homeowners an enormously high price as a stab-in-the-dark figure. Then they’ll find contractors like us who install it for less, so they can make a profit. Some companies also use inflated figures to persuade homeowners to install a very high-warrantied asphalt roof instead of a metal roof.

What homeowners often don’t realize about these companies is that they don’t have anyone standing by who specializes in or is experienced with residential metal roofing. But at AM Burney Exteriors, metal roofs are our specialty. We genuinely believe in the benefits metal roofs provide for homeowners, from durability to aesthetics to weather resistance and more.

We Are Independent

As an independent building contractor, we don’t need to promote any particular product or brand to homeowners. Instead, we have researched all the products ourselves and can recommend the perfect option that meets a homeowner’s budget and desired aesthetic.

We Have Many Happy Customers

We mentioned earlier that we have many happy customers, but we don’t just want homeowners to take our word for it. We have many testimonials and reviews that our customers have left after the services we’ve done. These speak to the quality of customer service and work we aim to provide with every job we do.

Why is the installation of a
Metal roof so important?

Proper training of installers is essential. We cannot express how important this is. Installing a metal roof is entirely different from installing an asphalt roof as many contractors and homeowners have sadly learned the hard way.

Unlike a lower cost asphalt shingle roof, a metal roof is installed as an entire system with unique metal bends and installation techniques. When compared to asphalt roofing, metal roof installations require a high level of product knowledge and metal working skills.

At AM Burney Exteriors Inc., our metal roof installers are some of the best in the state of Minnesota and Mid-Western Wisconsin. But don’t just believe us, give us a call today and we can explain why.

Metal Roof FAQs

Is a metal roof noisy?

This is probably the #1 question we as metal roof installers get. Perhaps you remember standing under a barn, shed or outbuiliding during a rainstorm. In these structures, the steel roof panels are secured directly to the rafters. There is no sound barrier so it sounded loud when it rained. On a home, townhome or heated commercial facility, the steel panels are fastened to an underlayment, then decking, with insulation under that and a sheet rock ceiling which absorbs and muffles sound.

In addition, and this too helps muffle sound, some metal roofs can be installed over an asphalt roof. Considering the layer of shingles, roof deck, attic air space, rafters, the insulation, and sheetrock ceiling, individuals who have metal roof say what they hear when it rains is the rain on their skylights and soft metals (gutters), not their metal roof.

Can I walk on my metal roof?

Yes, but like with any roof care should always be taken.

How much does a metal roof cost compared to asphalt roofs?

Initially a metal roof may cost more depending on the type of asphalt shingle you compare it to. A steel roof will never need to be replaced in your lifetime, lasting 40-80 years (depending on metal type) when compared to asphalt roofs which last about 17-20 years in our climate. If you have hail, wind or storm damage asphalt shingles are more likely to damage when compared to a metal roof. Therefore over a life-time, a metal roof is less expensive.
