Metal roofing covers everything from standing seam panels on a new build to a full tear-off and replacement on a 1990s ranch in the suburbs. In Atlanta, that usually means dealing with steep summer heat, sudden hailstorms, and the occasional falling tree limb, so the install has to handle wide temperature swings and heavy rain without leaking or oil-canning. We've listed 89 metal roofing businesses serving the metro area, ranging from small crews that specialize in agricultural and residential panel systems to larger companies that also handle commercial standing seam and architectural shingles that mimic metal.
What the job actually involves
A proper metal roof job starts with tearing off or preparing the existing surface, checking the decking for rot, adding underlayment rated for the panel type, then installing panels with the right fastener spacing and flashing at valleys, chimneys, and roof-to-wall transitions. Bad flashing work is the most common source of leaks on metal roofs, so it's worth asking any contractor how they detail those areas specifically.
What to look for before you hire
Check that the company is licensed to work in Georgia, carries liability insurance and workers' comp, and can show photos of finished jobs similar in scope to yours (residential standing seam vs. commercial corrugated, for example). Ask about the warranty on both the panels and the labor separately, since those often come from different sources and cover different failure points.
Our scores weigh how a business is reviewed over time, how it responds to customer feedback, and signals of consistent, verifiable work rather than a single burst of five-star ratings.
