Metal Roofing in Macedonia & Northeast Ohio

If you're pricing a metal roof, you're probably tired of replacing shingles. A shingle roof in Northeast Ohio is good for twenty to twenty-five years if the ice dams and wind leave it alone. A properly installed metal roof is a fifty-year roof. It sheds snow instead of holding it, it doesn't lift in a Lake Erie gale, and the freeze-thaw cycle that chews through everything else around here barely touches it.

Righteous Chimney & Masonry installs metal roofing on homes across Macedonia, Twinsburg, Hudson, Solon, and the rest of Summit and Cuyahoga counties. We'll walk you through the real choices: standing seam panels with hidden fasteners, exposed-fastener panels for a tighter budget, and metal shingles for a house where you want the look of a traditional roof. Then we give you one written price, in plain terms, with no pressure.

Here's what sets us apart from a roofing-only outfit. Most metal roof leaks show up at the chimney, because the roofer flashed a brick chimney the way they'd flash a vent pipe. We're masons. We cut the counter-flashing into the mortar joint, repoint what needs it, and if your crown or brick is failing we fix it in the same visit instead of sending you off to find another contractor.

One crew for the roof, the flashing, and the chimney it wraps around.

What we'll talk through on your estimate:

  1. Panel type — Standing seam, exposed fastener, or metal shingles. Which fits your house, your budget, and how long you plan to stay.
  2. Gauge & finish — Panel thickness and the paint system, which is what decides how the roof looks in twenty years.
  3. Snow & ice — Snow guards over entries and walkways, and how the roof will handle ice at the eaves.
  4. Chimney & penetrations — Flashing at the chimney, vents, and skylights, done so water has nowhere to go but off the roof.

A metal roof is only as good as its details. The panels themselves rarely fail. The seams, the fasteners, the edge trim, and the flashing are where a cheap install shows up three winters later. We build those details for Northeast Ohio weather, and we stand behind them.

Why Choose Righteous

  • Masons on the Roof

    Chimney flashing cut into the mortar joint, not surface-caulked. It's the leak point most roofers get wrong.

  • Built for Snow Load

    Panels, underlayment, and snow retention chosen for lake-effect winters, not a national spec sheet.

  • One Written Price

    A clear quote up front. If we find rotten decking when the old roof comes off, we show you before we touch it.

  • Licensed & Insured

    Fully licensed and insured, with proof provided before any work starts.

How it works

How a Metal Roof Install Goes

Most residential metal roofs take a few days from tear-off to final trim. Here's the sequence, so you know what to expect at each stage.

Step by step

  • Inspect & measure: We measure every plane, check the decking and chimney, and price the panel options separately so you can compare.
  • Tear-off & deck: The old roof comes off. Soft decking is shown to you and replaced before anything goes on top of it.
  • Underlayment & flashing: High-temp synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water barrier at the eaves and valleys, and chimney counter-flashing cut into the brick.
  • Panels & trim: Panels set and seamed or fastened, then ridge, eave, and gable trim, snow guards where they're needed, and a full cleanup.

What Greater Cleveland Homeowners Say

  • Honest Inspection, No Scare Tactics

    Another company tried to sell me a full chimney rebuild. Righteous came out, ran a camera inspection, showed me the actual flue, and said all I needed was a sweep and a new cap. Saved me thousands. This is who I'll call from now on.

  • Finally Stopped a Years-Long Leak

    Two roofers couldn't figure out where the water was coming from. Righteous found it was the chimney crown and flashing, rebuilt the crown, reflashed, and waterproofed it. Dry through the whole winter for the first time in years.

  • Beautiful Tuck Pointing on Our 1920s Home

    Our brick was crumbling at the joints. They repointed the whole chimney and a section of wall with mortar that actually matches the original. You can't tell where the new work starts. Craftsmanship you don't see much anymore.

  • Quick, Clean, and Straightforward

    Swept the chimney, inspected it, and walked me through everything with photos. Showed up on time, laid down drop cloths, left zero mess. Fair price, no upselling. Exactly how it should be done.

FAQs

Metal Roofing FAQs

  • It depends on the panel type, how complicated the roof is, and whether the old roof has to come off. Standing seam costs more than exposed-fastener panels, and a roof with several dormers and a chimney costs more than a plain gable. Metal costs more than shingles up front and usually less over its life, because you install it once. We give a written estimate after we measure, with the options priced separately.

  • Sometimes. It's allowed in many cases if there's only one layer of shingles and the decking is sound, and it saves the tear-off cost. But it hides rotten decking and can trap moisture if the old roof has been leaking. We'll tell you which situation you're in after we inspect, and we won't recommend an overlay just to win on price.

  • Not on a house. With solid decking and underlayment under the panels, it's no louder than shingles. The noise people remember comes from open-frame barns and pole buildings where the metal is exposed on both sides.

  • Yes, and this is where we're in our element. The chimney is the most common leak point on any metal roof because the flashing has to tie into the masonry. We cut counter-flashing into the mortar joints and repoint around it, and if the crown or brick is deteriorated we repair it before the roof goes on, so you're not opening the roof back up in two years.

  • A properly installed standing seam roof is generally expected to last forty to sixty years, versus twenty to twenty-five for asphalt shingles. Freeze-thaw and heavy snow are what shorten a shingle roof's life here, and metal handles both far better. The paint finish is usually the first thing to show age, which is why the finish system matters when you're choosing panels.
