Metal Roofing
Fort Tex Metals & Roofing Upgrade Your Roof with a Metal Roof
A metal roof is the last roof most Fort Worth homeowners buy. It handles hail better than asphalt, it reflects the summer heat instead of holding it, and it does not need replacing every time a bad storm rolls through Tarrant County.
Fort Tex Metals & Roofing installs standing seam, metal shingle, and metal tile roofs across Fort Worth and the wider DFW area. Metal is in our name because it is what we build. We fabricate, install, and repair metal roofing systems on homes and commercial buildings, and we walk you through the options before you commit to anything.
Metal Roof Options We Install
Not every metal roof looks the same or costs the same. The right system depends on your roof pitch, your home’s style, and how long you plan to stay.
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Vertical panels with raised, interlocking seams and hidden fasteners. There are no exposed screws to loosen or leak over time, which is why standing seam is the system most homeowners choose when they want a roof they can stop thinking about. It suits modern, farmhouse, and traditional homes alike.
Metal Shingles and Metal Tile
Pressed metal panels that mimic the look of architectural shingle, slate, or clay tile. You get the durability of metal with a profile that fits an established neighborhood or an HOA that wants a traditional roofline.
Exposed Fastener Panels
R-panel and similar profiles cost less per square and go up faster. They work well on shops, barns, outbuildings, and some commercial structures. Fasteners are visible and need periodic checking, so we usually recommend these where budget and speed matter more than a 50 year hands-off roof.
Materials
We work in steel, aluminum, copper, and zinc. Galvalume steel is the workhorse for most Fort Worth homes. Aluminum resists corrosion and weighs less. Copper and zinc are premium choices for accent roofs, porches, and architectural details. [CONFIRM with Pedro: standard gauge you install, typically 24 or 26 gauge, and the finish system, such as Kynar 500 PVDF.]
Metal Roofing and Texas Hail
North Texas sits in one of the most active hail corridors in the country. Fort Worth gets hit, and the question is not whether your roof takes hail, it is what happens when it does.
Asphalt shingles bruise. The granules knock loose, the mat underneath gets exposed, and the roof starts aging fast even when the damage is not obvious from the ground. Metal panels dent under large hail, but the roofing system itself keeps doing its job. A dented panel is cosmetic in most cases. A bruised shingle is the start of a leak.
If you already have hail damage, we handle the inspection and the documentation for your insurance claim. We can meet the adjuster at the property and make sure the damage is recorded accurately.
