“Needed a new metal roof on our hay barn out past Blythewood and these guys knocked it out in two days with a four-man crew. They used corrugated panels that matched what was on the old shed and cleaned up every last screw and scrap piece before they left. Couldn't be happier with how it turned out.”
Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing
“We had our hearts set on copper for the front porch roof of our 1920s house and Columbia Metal Roofing was the only outfit around here that didn't try to talk us out of it. The standing seam work is gorgeous, the soldered valleys are flawless, and they treated the old house like it mattered. Worth every penny.”
Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing
“Had a standing seam roof put on our new build and the crew was fantastic. Straight lines, tight seams, and they even walked me through how the snow guards were anchored since we're up on a slope. Only reason for four stars is they showed up a day later than scheduled, but the work itself is top notch.”
Metal Roof Installation
“Our old shingle roof was leaking in three spots and we finally pulled the trigger on a metal replacement. The team tore off and hauled away everything in one day and had the new panels on by the end of the week. The house is noticeably quieter in the rain now, which I did not expect.”
Metal Roof Replacement
“Water was coming in around the vent pipe on our metal roof every time it stormed and two other roofers couldn't figure it out. These guys found the failed flashing in about ten minutes, replaced it properly, and sealed it up. No leaks since, even through that big storm last month.”
Metal Roof Leak Repair
“We went with the retrofit over our existing shingles to save money and I was nervous about it, but the crew explained the whole process and the finished roof looks like it was always meant to be there. They added the new flashing and trim so it ties in clean at the walls. Really pleased with the result.”
Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit)
“Our lake house needed a roof that could handle the wind off the water and the standing seam they installed has been rock solid. They added ice protection and snow guards along the north slope and the whole thing was done in under a week. The crew was respectful and left the dock area spotless.”
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
“We wanted the look of a Tudor-style roof without the maintenance nightmare, so we went with metal shingles and they nailed the look. The color match to our brick is perfect and the crew was careful around all the dormers and gables. Took them a bit longer than quoted, but the craftsmanship speaks for itself.”

Homeowners searching for a metal roofing contractor near me in Columbia want more than a sales pitch. They want a straight answer about whether their existing roof can be repaired or whether it is time for a replacement. Columbia Metal Roofing is the local team that gives you that answer. We install, replace, re-roof, and repair metal roofing systems across Columbia and the surrounding Midlands, from the shaded streets of Forest Acres and Eastover to the newer subdivisions of Blythewood and the lake homes near Arcadia Lakes. Our network of licensed, insured local contractors understands the conditions that matter here: steep pitches, heavy tree cover, and a large stock of aging screw-down roofs whose fasteners are reaching the end of their service life.
Whether you need a full Metal Roof Installation or a targeted repair, we match the system to the home and the budget. We know the difference between a roof that can be saved with a screw replacement and one that needs a tear-off, and we will tell you plainly which one you have. Call (803) 353-5064 to schedule a free roof inspection and get honest guidance from a local contractor who works in your neighborhood.
Most metal roof leaks in Columbia start with the fasteners. On exposed-fastener roofs that are 15 to 30 years old, the EPDM sealing washers under each screw dry out, shrink, and crack, leaving a gap where water enters. The screw itself may still be tight, but the seal is gone. Other common failure points include seam separation from thermal movement, failed pipe boots, and flashing gaps at chimneys, skylights, and valleys. Wind-lifted panels after a severe thunderstorm or hurricane remnant, and punctures from fallen limbs, are also frequent culprits. What makes these problems worse is that water often tracks along purlins and decking far from the entry point, so by the time you see a stain on the ceiling, the sheathing and insulation may already be damaged.
Ignoring a small leak is expensive. Rotted sheathing, mold, and ruined insulation are common outcomes when a failed fastener or flashing goes unaddressed for a season. The honest call between repair and replacement depends on the age of the roof, the condition of the panels, and how many fasteners are failing. In many cases, a full Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening restores a watertight roof for a fraction of the cost of replacement. We will inspect the roof, show you what we find, and recommend the option that makes sense for your home, not the one that makes us the most money.
If you have an active leak, do not wait. Call (803) 353-5064 to speak with a local contractor about Metal Roof Leak Repair or to request a free estimate. We will identify the source, explain your options, and help you stop the damage before it spreads.
We install the full range of metal roofing systems, and we match the system to the home rather than pushing one product. Standing Seam Metal Roofing is the premium choice: concealed clips, no exposed fasteners, and a clean profile that performs well on steep pitches. For cabins, barns, and workshops, Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing is the economical workhorse. We also install Metal Shingle Roofing, Stone-Coated Steel Roofing, and Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing for accents and historic homes.
The honest comparison is simple: standing seam costs more upfront but has no exposed screws to maintain, while screw-down costs less and requires fastener service over its life. When the deck is sound, Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) can be a legitimate way to save on tear-off and disposal. When the deck is not sound, a full tear-off and Metal Roof Replacement is the right call. We will tell you which one your roof needs.
Metal roof costs in Columbia are typically quoted per square foot for installations and as flat-rate pricing for many repairs. The final number depends on the panel system and metal gauge, roof pitch and complexity, whether we tear off the old roof or recover over it, the condition of the decking, and access to the roof. We do not publish fixed prices because every roof is different, but we can give you a clear, written estimate after an inspection. Some carriers may offer premium discounts for metal or impact-rated roofs, though you should confirm any discount directly with your insurer.
For a detailed breakdown of what drives cost, visit our pricing page. To get a number for your specific roof, call (803) 353-5064 to request a free estimate or a free roof inspection. We will give you a straightforward range and explain what could change it, so you can plan with confidence.
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, and coverage decisions rest with your carrier. We make no promise that a claim will be approved. On permits: in most jurisdictions, a permit is commonly required for a full replacement or re-roof, but requirements vary by city, and thresholds, fees, and inspection requirements are set locally. Historic district or HOA design review can also affect panel profile and color choices, so it is worth checking early.
We are happy to point you in the right direction, but we do not give legal or code advice. Requirements vary, always verify with the Columbia building or planning department before starting your project. For help understanding what your roof needs, contact us to schedule an inspection.
