Most business owners around Tulsa don’t give their roof a second thought—until leaks start showing up or a storm rips something loose. That’s usually when we get the call. And when the building really matters—like retail spaces, medical offices, or anything customer-facing—standing seam metal roofing tends to be the best call you can make.
We’ve been in commercial roofing for over 20 years, and I’ve seen it all—patch jobs that barely last a season, systems slapped together with whatever was cheapest that month. But standing seam metal roofing? That’s a different story. These panels lock in tight, they shed water like nobody’s business, and they’re built to last decades. No exposed fasteners, no flimsy sealants trying to hold everything together. Just clean lines and solid protection.
Why Choose Metal Roofing?
Roofing’s never one-size-fits-all. I’ve worked on enough buildings around Tulsa to know that what works great for one setup might be a nightmare for another. A lot of people go straight to TPO or something similar when they’re weighing options—but if you’ve got the right kind of slope or you’re designing from scratch, standing seam metal roofing is absolutely worth a real look.
I’ve always liked it because it’s dependable. No flashy gimmicks—just interlocking metal panels that do their job, year after year. Around here, you’ve got to think about blazing heat, hail, heavy rain, and ice all in the same calendar year. This stuff handles it. It doesn’t have exposed screws that can back out over time, and once it’s locked in, it’s not going anywhere.
Plus, it gives the building a clean, professional look. That matters more than people think—especially if you’ve got customers walking through the door. We are happy to talk through it with you—no pressure, no sales pitch. Just an honest conversation about what makes the most sense for your building.

Standing Seam Metal Roofing FAQs
Can It Be Installed on Low-Slope Roofs?
It depends. Standing seam systems work best on roofs with a pitch of 3:12 or steeper. For flatter roofs, other systems like TPO or modified bitumen might be a better fit, but we’re always happy to help evaluate your slope and structure.
Is Metal Roofing Noisy When It Rains?
Not if it’s installed properly with good insulation underneath. In fact, with the right decking and insulation, standing seam metal roofs aren’t noticeably louder than other types of roofing during a storm.
Will a Metal Roof Make My Building Hotter?
Actually, it’s the opposite. Standing seam metal roofs can reflect up to 70% of solar radiation, especially when coated with a cool-roof finish. This can reduce roof surface temps by up to 50°F and help lower cooling bills in the summer.
Is Metal Roofing Good for Commercial Buildings?
Absolutely. It’s especially ideal for businesses that want long-term value, low upkeep, and a sharp, professional appearance. We’ve installed it on everything from retail spaces and offices to schools and churches.
