Metal Roofing — What Homeowners Should Know
Yes, We Install Metal Roofing — But There Are Important Considerations
At Timbercrest Roofing and Siding, we do install metal roofing systems for homeowners who fully understand the product, its warranty limitations, and long-term expectations.
However, based on decades of hands-on experience in Michigan’s unpredictable climate, we encourage all homeowners to carefully consider the pros and cons before choosing metal over traditional asphalt roofing.
Metal Roofing in Michigan — Pros & Cons Comparison Chart
| Category | Pros of Metal Roofing | Cons of Metal Roofing |
| Longevity | ✔ Can last 40–50 years under ideal installation conditions | ✘ Long-term performance still unproven on most Michigan homes |
| Weather Performance | ✔ Excellent snow shedding — reduces ice dams and heavy roof loads | ✘ Michigan freeze–thaw cycles increase wear and can stress seams and panels |
| Fire Safety | ✔ Fire-resistant — won’t ignite from lightning or embers | — |
| Weight | ✔ Lightweight — ideal for older or structurally modest homes | — |
| Curb Appeal | ✔ Offers a modern, contemporary architectural look | ✘ Fading and chalking can reduce appearance over time |
| Wind & Storm Durability | ✔ Can withstand strong storms when installed correctly | ✘ Exposed-fastener systems (popular for cost savings) commonly leak within 10 years |
| Noise | — | ✘ Rain and hail can sound much louder without added insulation |
| Warranty & Fading | — | ✘ Color warranties allow fading up to two full shades — meaning visible discoloration is still considered “within warranty” |
| Repair & Maintenance | — | ✘ Panel replacement, dent removal, and seal issues require specialized crews |
| Cost | — | ✘ Typically 2–3x more expensive than high-quality asphalt shingles |
| Value Over Time | ✔ Potentially fewer replacements long-term — if roofing performs as intended | ✘ Asphalt can often be replaced 2–3 times for the same investment |
| Technology Maturity | — | ✘ Limited long-term residential data in Michigan compared to asphalt shingles |
Metal Roofing Is Still a Developing Residential Product
Although metal roofing has grown in popularity, it is still relatively new in residential applications. In our view, the long-term performance of many systems has not been fully proven in real-world Michigan conditions—including freeze/thaw cycles, snow load, humidity, and hail.
Early adopters often become the first-case test group, and that’s not always the best position for homeowners making a major investment.
Key Concerns Homeowners Should Consider
-
Metal roofing warranties typically allow for noticeable fading—often up to two shades within the first 10 years.
This means colors like red or blue may look significantly lighter or washed out over time and still fall within “acceptable” warranty limits.Another concern is maintenance down the road:
How will metal roofing be repainted in 10–20 years—and at what cost?
The industry hasn’t provided long-term solutions yet. -
Metal roofing for residential homes often costs three times more than asphalt shingles.
For many homeowners, that means:You could replace asphalt roofing three full times
For roughly the same total investment
With a similar—or possibly longer—service lifespan
Even premium metal roofs are often only warranted for 40–50 years, making the long-term cost difference less compelling than it may appear.
-
There are two common types of metal roofing systems:
✔ Hidden fastener systems — recommended for residential homes
✘ Exposed fastener systems (pole barn steel) — often used incorrectly on housesExposed fastener systems were originally designed for:
Barns
Garage
Outbuildings
Agricultural structures
They rely on hundreds of screws with rubber gaskets that expand, contract, and crack over time.
Based on our experience, these systems are far more prone to leaks within 7–12 years, especially in heated, finished homes—and we strongly advise against using them on residential properties.
So — Is Metal Roofing Worth It?
Metal roofing can be a good option for some homeowners with the right expectations, the right application, and the right product installed correctly.
But for most families comparing performance and cost in Michigan, premium architectural asphalt shingles remain the most proven, cost-effective, and reliable long-term roofing system available.

Skylights — Beauty, Light & Important Considerations
We install skylights the right way, or not at all.
Skylights can dramatically improve your home by bringing in natural sunlight and enhancing interior design. However, skylights are also one of the most common sources of roof leaks, especially in Michigan’s extreme weather. After handling hundreds of insurance claims tied to leaking skylights, we’ve developed strong recommendations to protect homeowners from long-term issues.
Why Skylights Leak
Even well-installed skylights are vulnerable because they penetrate the roofing surface. Over time, weather exposure, aging seals, and improper systems allow water to infiltrate—and small leaks quickly turn into major problems inside the home.
Because of this risk, Timbercrest Roofing and Siding follows strict skylight installation standards.
Our Skylight Policy
-
Repairing old or failing skylights is rarely a long-term solution.
Most leaks return—and often spread—resulting in:Water damage to attic or drywall
Mold growth
Homeowner frustration
Insurance claims that could have been avoided
-
Skylights are tied into the roofing system. Installing a new skylight on an old roof leaves seams, flashing, and roofing layers mismatched—and prone to leaks.
Replacing the roof ensures:Proper sealing
Correct integration with underlayment
Full weatherproofing
A system designed to work together
-
We only offer a warranty on:
Velux Skylights
Velux Factory Flashing Kits
When installed during a full roofing replacement, Timbercrest provides a 1-year workmanship warranty.
-
There is no warranty offered for:
Reinstalling old skylights
Plastic bubble-style skylights
Skylights installed outside a full roof replacement
Bubble skylights depend on caulking to keep water out.
Caulk dries, cracks, shrinks—and water always wins the battle. -
Skylights are beautiful and functional—but only when:
High-quality products are used
Installed correctly
Integrated fully into a roofing replacement
Cheap skylights or shortcut repairs can create a lifetime of leaks and headaches.
Ready for Natural Light Without the Risk?
If you want skylights installed—let’s do it right.

Roofing Repairs — What We Do (and Why)
Protecting your home starts with doing repairs the right way.
At Timbercrest Roofing and Siding, our goal is to provide repairs that last—not temporary fixes that fail.
That’s why we only perform roofing repairs when the damage is caused by:
Wind
Hail
Storm events
These repairs are typically covered through insurance and allow us to restore your roof correctly, using proper materials and certified installation practices.
-
In the past, Timbercrest offered basic leak repairs with no warranty.
While most repairs were successful, a single “bad apple” situation helped us realize an important truth:➡ Homeowners deserve long-term solutions, not quick fixes that can fail later.
Leaking roofs are often signs of:
Aging systems near end-of-life
Worn shingles
Flashing failures
Hidden water intrusion
In these cases, a repair may disguise a much larger problem—and we refuse to put homeowners at risk.
-
Our certified project managers will:
Examine the full roofing system
Document storm-related damage
Identify missing or creased shingles
Recommend the right path forward
— filing an insurance claim or a simple storm-repair solution
Sometimes, a targeted storm repair is all you need.
Other times, damage is widespread—and filing an insurance claim is the smarter financial decision.Either way, our goal is honesty, clarity, and zero sales pressure.
-
We proudly offer roofing repair services for:
Hail Damage
Wind Damage
Storm Damage
Missing Shingles from weather events
Every repair follows manufacturer guidelines and protects your roofing system—not just patches it.

Roof Replacement Done Right
When it’s time to replace your roof — we make sure it’s done properly.
There are many reasons a home may need a full roof replacement.
Sometimes a roofing system simply reaches the end of its lifespan.
Other times, wind or hail damage has weakened the roof and repairing individual shingles isn’t enough.
At Timbercrest Roofing and Siding, we specialize in roof replacements caused by wind and hail damage and help homeowners understand the best path forward.

-
A new roof may be required if:
Your roof is aging or worn out
Large sections of shingles are missing
Wind or hail storms have caused structural damage
Repairs are no longer protecting the home
Damage has spread beyond a small area
Our goal is to help you protect your home—not push replacements you don’t need.
-
If storm damage is involved, you may qualify for a roof replacement covered by insurance.
Our team:
Helps you start the claim
Documents damage properly
Works with insurance adjusters
Confirms all storm-related damage is included
Ensures your roof is restored to pre-loss condition
Because of our strong professional reputation, most insurance companies recognize and respect Timbercrest Roofing and Siding, helping your project move smoothly from inspection to installation.
-
Storm damage isn’t always obvious from the ground. That’s why we use the same storm-mapping software trusted by insurance carriers to verify:
Your address was within a storm zone
Hail size documented in your neighborhood
Wind speeds strong enough to cause damage
This data helps support a valid claim — and ensures nothing is overlooked.
-
Yes. Golf ball–sized hail typically carries enough weight to cause direct physical damage to your roofing system. Smaller hail can also cause damage depending on:
How long the storm lasted
Wind direction and speed
Your roof’s age and condition
If you’ve noticed missing shingles, dents in metal trim, or storms recently passed through your neighborhood, it’s worth getting checked.
-
Skylights are beautiful and functional—but only when:
High-quality products are used
Installed correctly
Integrated fully into a roofing replacement
Cheap skylights or shortcut repairs can create a lifetime of leaks and headaches.
