Metal Roofing in Morehousetown, Livingston: what actually fails

A Morehousetown rebuild with a simpler roofline is a better fit for metal than an older split-level next door with three levels of wall lines. Fewer level changes means less custom flashing and a price closer to shingle.

One of the seven 1811 sections, today the Livingston Circle area, where newer houses stand among older ones; one single-family home listed here was built in 2012.

  • Low sections of very different ages
  • The roof's real age, not the house's
  • Layers on an older second roof
  • Flashings that may predate the current shingles

Note 01Do you repair metal roofs?

Yes. A loose panel, failed fastener seals or a leaking flashing where the metal meets a wall is a repair, priced on its own like any other.

Note 02How long does a metal roof last compared with shingles?

Metal roofing is generally rated at 40 to 70 years and asphalt shingles at 15 to 30. The fasteners, seams and flashings decide whether a metal roof reaches its rating, which is why they are checked on every visit.

Note 03What is the downside to a metal roof?

Cost up front: on a larger Livingston home metal is published at an estimated $20,000 to $40,000 against about $12,000 to $28,000 for architectural shingle. On a split-level, every level change is custom flashing in metal, and snow sheds off metal in one go, so where it lands matters.
