metal roof installation for Forest Lake homes, handled by a family roofing company that has been at it since 2002. Estimates are always free.
A metal roof is what Roofing Brothers is known for, and it has been since 2002. On a Forest Lake home that means standing seam or exposed fastener panels set over sound decking and real underlayment, with the ridge, valley and eave trim cut and fit on site rather than forced out of a box.
Our metal roof installation work in Forest Lake is handled by crews who do this every week, not by whoever happened to be free that morning. It shows up in the details — valleys, chimney flashing, eave and ridge closures — because that is where roofs actually leak.
We schedule your Forest Lake metal roof installation for a stretch of dry weather, keep the job site picked up as we go, and do not leave a roof open overnight. When it is done the tear off is hauled away and a magnet goes over the drive.
Four steps and no surprises. This is how we have done it since 2002.
Nothing gets ordered until you have a written price in hand and have settled on the color you actually want.
Where the decking is sound and there is only one layer, we can often go over the top on purlins. We tell you which one your house calls for.
Synthetic underlayment over the whole roof, ice and water shield in the valleys and at the eaves, then panels set square on the correct fastener spacing.
Then the yard gets picked up, the scrap gets hauled off, and a magnet goes over the drive before we pull out.
The things people want to know before they tell us to go ahead.
Most Forest Lake metal roof jobs land between about $12,000 and $30,000 in 2026, depending on square footage, pitch, panel type and how much tear off is involved. Standing seam runs higher than exposed fastener panels. We measure before we quote and the estimate is free.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment, a Forest Lake metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed to open purlins on a barn.
Around twenty standard colors. Green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones most Forest Lake homeowners land on. We bring the chart with the estimate so you can hold it against your siding.
A straightforward Forest Lake house is usually three to five days. A cut up roof with dormers, valleys and multiple pitches takes longer, because every panel and trim piece gets measured and fit on site.
Honest words from customers, in their own wording.
"Old slate roof and I was afraid nobody would touch it. They matched the pieces and now you cannot tell which ones are new."
"Thank you so much to the entire crew at Roofing Brothers for our amazing new tin roof! You were amazing to work with and I couldn't recommend you to others enough! Great communication, pricing, color options, efficiency, and HONESTY! If anyone needs a new roof, I highly recommend this crew! Phenomenal job."
"They replaced the soffit and fascia the squirrels had chewed through and closed everything back up tight. No more scratching in the attic at night."
