Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Our standing seam metal roofing system combines 24-gauge Galvalume steel with Kynar paint for unmatched durability in harsh climates. This interlocking panel design eliminates seams that cause leaks while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Homeowners benefit from a roof that resists snow accumulation and lasts over 50 years with minimal maintenance.
Duro-Last Membrane Roofing
Commercial properties receive energy-efficient Duro-Last membrane systems featuring custom-fabricated panels for fast installation. This solution includes a 20-year full warranty covering both materials and labor while meeting national fire and wind code requirements. The reflective surface reduces cooling costs through superior thermal emission properties.
On-Site Roll Forming
We bring roll-forming equipment directly to job sites for precise panel manufacturing tailored to each structure. This process eliminates transportation limitations while ensuring perfect fit for complex architectural designs. Customers benefit from reduced waste and faster installation times compared to factory-formed panels.
Residential Re-Roofing
Our residential re-roofing service addresses ice dam issues through proper ventilation and metal roofing installation. We complete most home projects in 2-5 days with complete site cleanup daily. Homeowners receive a lifetime roof that maintains property value while eliminating recurring shingle replacements.
Custom Metal Details
We fabricate custom metal components including trim, flashing, and decorative elements to complement each roofing system. Our in-house production ensures seamless integration with primary roofing materials while enhancing weather protection. These tailored details improve both functionality and curb appeal for residential and commercial structures.

Questions
Why should I choose metal roofing over traditional materials?
Metal roofs last 2-3 times longer than asphalt shingles while resisting ice damage, fire, and extreme weather. They reduce energy costs through solar reflectance and typically qualify for insurance discounts.
Do you offer warranties on your roofing systems?
Our Duro-Last membrane systems include a 20-year full warranty covering both materials and labor. Standing seam metal roofs carry manufacturer warranties up to 40 years with proper maintenance.
Can metal roofs be installed on existing structures?
We typically install metal roofs over existing roofing after assessing structural integrity. This approach reduces waste and lowers overall project costs while maintaining proper ventilation standards.
What color options are available for metal roofing?
We offer over 30 standard colors including classic metal finishes and simulated shingle/tile looks. Our Kynar paint system provides long-lasting color retention with UV protection.
Do you work directly with homeowners?
Yes, we handle residential projects directly with no subcontractors. Our team manages every phase from initial consultation through final cleanup, ensuring consistent quality control throughout the installation process.
What areas do you service?
We primarily serve Upper Michigan and Northern Wisconsin, including Escanaba, Marquette, Ishpeming, Houghton, and Land O' Lakes. Our mobile fabrication capabilities allow us to handle projects up to several hours from our main location.

These guys did a superb job installing a seamless metal roof on my two story house. Dan explained to me that a roof should be as close to the same temperature on the inside of the roof as the outside and recommended a ridge vent and blown insulation in my attic. After the roof installation, I noticed a little bit of rain coming down the chimney in my attic and called Dan, he had a guy put more sealer around the chimney the next day. Thanks Dan for excellent service and professionalism!

I am really pleased with the work perkins crew did on my house. On rainy days with the package I went with the insulation they put on my roof helps dampen the sound of the rain hitting my roof I also have noticed it has been cooler in my house. I seen the work that they did to my house and the extra effort they put in to make their work even better I am so happy I got a Dan Perkins roof on my house.
I can't stop smiling at the roof on my house knowing the three layers of shingles that were on my house are now gone forever. Even is the hot heat the crew still worked thru it to get it done. So thanks again Dan perkins and crew for one heck of a good job.
