Price

What drives the cost of metal roofing in Dearborn

  • Panel type: standing seam, exposed fastener or metal shingle
  • Metal gauge, finish and color
  • Roof complexity, valleys and penetrations
  • Tear-off and decking repairs
  • Snow guards and gutter reinforcement
  • Installer experience and warranty terms
  • The age of the home: the typical Dearborn home was built around 1952, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Dearborn

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Dearborn was built around 1952. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

71% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the Dearborn building department before work starts.

How to compare metal roofing quotes

  • Ask each roofer how many metal roofs they have installed and for addresses you can see.
  • Compare panel type, gauge and finish warranty, not just color.
  • Ask how expansion, flashing and snow guards will be handled.
  • Check the license on the LARA lookup.
  • Confirm who pulls the permit and whether a tear-off is included.
