| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Metal Roof Installation | From $8/sq ft | Complete metal roof installation for homes across Albuquerque and the Rio Rancho area: panel systems engineered for high-desert UV, summer hail and spring wind storms, installed over high-temperature synthetic underlayment with proper attic ventilation, flashing and manufacturer-approved details for a 40-60 year service life. |
| Standing Seam Metal Roofing | From $10/sq ft | Concealed-fastener standing seam systems, the premium choice for Albuquerque homes. Panels roll-formed to length and mechanically seamed or snap-locked, with no exposed screws to loosen as big daily temperature swings expand and contract the roof. Strong wind resistance for spring gusts and a cool reflective finish. |
| Metal Roof Replacement | From $9/sq ft | Full tear-off and replacement of sun-baked shingle, cracked tile or end-of-life metal roofs: old roofing hauled away, decking inspected and repaired, then a complete new metal system installed. Some insurers recognize impact-rated roofs after hail seasons, so ask yours. |
| Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) | From $7/sq ft | A new metal roof installed directly over your existing asphalt shingles, with no tear-off, less waste and lower cost. Popular on Albuquerque ranch homes. We check deck condition first and tell you honestly when tear-off is the better call. |
| Metal Roof Repair | From $450 | Repair of damaged, loose or storm-hit metal roofing: replacing hail-dented or punctured panels, resealing seams and penetrations, and fixing failed flashing before monsoon rain becomes interior damage. |
| Metal Roof Leak Repair | From $450 | Priority leak response for metal roofs: leaks traced to their true source (failed fasteners, seam separation, flashing gaps, pipe boots and parapet transitions) and fixed right, not just caulked over. Emergency tarping available after monsoon storms. |
| Screw Replacement & Re-Fastening | From $750 | Albuquerque's big daily temperature swings and winter freeze-thaw expand and contract metal roofs hundreds of times a year, so screws back out and sun-baked washers crack on older exposed-fastener roofs. Oversized screws and UV-resistant washers fix it for a fraction of replacement cost. |
| Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing | From $5.50/sq ft | Exposed-fastener metal roofing (corrugated, R-panel and 5V), the budget-friendly workhorse for carports, portals, barns and workshops across the Middle Valley and East Mountains. Quality panels in reflective cool-roof colors, installed with proper screw patterns and closures that keep out wind-blown dust. |
| Metal Shingle Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Metal shingles that deliver the look of architectural shingles, slate or shake with the lifespan of steel, a favorite for Albuquerque homeowners who want metal performance without the standing seam look. Lightweight and wind-rated for spring gusts and monsoon downdrafts. |
| Stone-Coated Steel Roofing | From $9/sq ft | Stone-coated steel systems combining steel strength with a textured traditional finish: strong hail and wind performance, Class A fire rating, and profiles that mimic the Spanish clay and concrete tile common on Albuquerque homes, at a fraction of the weight. |
| Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing | From $20/sq ft | Copper, zinc and aluminum roofing for accents, portals, bay windows and full architectural roofs: premium metals that develop a living patina and hold up for generations in the dry high-desert air. Custom fabrication for the fine details. |
| Metal Roof Coating & Painting | From $2.50/sq ft | Restoration of sun-faded, chalking or surface-rusted metal roofs: surface prep, rust treatment and high-performance reflective coating systems that extend roof life 10-15 years, restore color and cut summer heat gain without replacement. |
| Flashing, Chimney & Skylight Repair | From $600 | Repair and custom fabrication of flashing around chimneys, skylights, valleys, parapet walls and stucco transitions, the number one leak point on Albuquerque roofs once the monsoon arrives. In-house bent flashing for a precise watertight fit. |
| Snow Guards & Ice Protection | From $1,200 | Snow guards and rail systems for metal roofs: occasional in the city but important in the East Mountains and Sandia foothills, where steep roofs over entries and patios hold winter snow and ice that can release all at once. Honest guidance on whether yours needs them. |
| Storm & Wind Damage Repair | Free inspection | Repair of hail, wind and monsoon storm damage to metal roofing: thorough documentation with photos, honest assessment of repair versus replacement, and help documenting your insurance claim from inspection to completed work. |
| Metal Roof Inspection | Free estimate | Complete metal roof inspections for homeowners, buyers and insurance requirements: fastener condition, seam integrity, flashing, coating and UV wear, and a straight answer on remaining service life with a written report. |
| Gutters for Metal Roofs | From $9/linear ft | Seamless gutter systems sized and mounted correctly for metal roofing: hangers that work with panel profiles and downspouts that carry sudden monsoon cloudbursts away from stucco walls and foundations, with details that handle cottonwood fluff and desert dust. |
| Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing | Free estimate | Metal roofing for barns, workshops, churches, carports and light commercial buildings across the Middle Valley, from horse properties and hay farms in the valley bottom to East Mountain shops and Rio Rancho warehouses, with durable panel systems, insulation options and repairs. |
What Affects the Price
- Roof size and complexity : Larger roofs and those with multiple slopes, valleys, or penetrations require more materials and labor, increasing the overall cost.
- Material selection : Standard corrugated panels start at $5.50 per square foot, while premium options like copper or stone-coated steel can cost $20 or more per square foot.
- Accessibility and roof height : Steep roofs or those with limited access may require additional safety equipment and labor, affecting the price.
- Condition of existing roof : If removal of old roofing or structural repairs are needed, this adds to the cost. Retrofit over shingles can save on disposal fees.
