We use premium materials including standing seam and exposed fastener systems, selecting the best option based on your building's specific requirements and environmental conditions.


From initial consultation through final installation, we ensure your agricultural roofing project delivers the protection and performance your operation demands for years to come.

Types of Agricultural Metal Roofing Solutions

We offer a selection of metal roofing solutions tailored to meet the demands of agricultural structures. Each type addresses specific needs such as durability, cost-efficiency, and ease of maintenance.

Standing Seam Metal Roofs

Standing seam metal roofs provide a strong, weather-tight seal with raised vertical seams. These roofs are ideal for farms facing severe weather because they resist wind uplift and leaks.



The low-profile seams minimize debris buildup and simplify cleaning. We use coated steel or aluminum panels that resist rust and corrosion, extending roof lifespan. This option is more expensive but offers long-term durability and minimal upkeep.

Corrugated Metal Panels

Corrugated metal panels are a popular choice for agricultural buildings due to their affordability and ease of installation. The wavy pattern adds structural strength, making panels less prone to damage.


They are available in galvanized or painted finishes to prevent rust. This style is useful for barns, storage sheds, and smaller outbuildings where budget and rapid installation matter most.

Custom Roofing Designs 

We also provide custom metal roofing solutions designed to meet the unique requirements of any agricultural facility. Our team assesses building dimensions, roof pitch, and local climate before recommending materials and design.


Customization options include ventilation features, skylights, and snow guards. These designs ensure optimal function and protection, tailored exactly to your operational needs.

Our Metal Roofing Installation Process

We focus on thorough planning, precise material choices, and expert installation to ensure durable, efficient metal roofs for agricultural structures. Every step is tailored to meet the specific needs of farming environments and building requirements.

1. Initial Consultation

We begin with an on-site visit to evaluate the structure’s current condition and unique challenges. This includes inspecting the frame, measuring roof dimensions, and identifying any potential issues like ventilation or drainage concerns.



During this visit, we discuss your goals, budget, and timeline to align expectations. Our detailed assessment allows us to recommend the most effective metal roofing solutions that will withstand agricultural demands and local weather conditions.

2. Material Selection

We offer a variety of metal types, including galvanized steel and aluminum, chosen for their strength and resistance to corrosion. Each material is available in multiple finishes and colors to suit functionality and aesthetic preferences.



Customization options include panel profiles, gauges, and coatings tailored to enhance durability, insulation, and maintenance needs. We help you select materials based on factors such as climate, livestock considerations, and building use.

3. Professional Installation

Our installation team follows industry best practices and manufacturer guidelines to secure panels with precision fasteners and sealants. We ensure proper alignment and overlap to prevent leaks and maximize longevity.



Throughout the process, we perform inspections to maintain quality standards and address issues immediately. After installation, we conduct a final walkthrough with you to verify satisfaction and provide maintenance advice.

Benefits of Metal Roofing for Agricultural Structures

Metal roofing offers multiple advantages that improve the longevity, cost efficiency, and safety of agricultural buildings. Its performance under harsh environmental conditions and its resistance to common risks make it a practical choice for farms and ranches.

Enhanced Durability 

We rely on metal roofing because it withstands extreme weather better than many other materials. Metal panels resist heavy rain, strong winds, and hail without cracking or warping. This durability reduces the need for frequent repairs, protecting stored equipment and livestock inside.


Metal roofs also shed snow quickly, preventing heavy loads that can damage the structure. Their lifespan often exceeds 40 years, which is significantly longer than traditional roofing options. Corrosion-resistant coatings further extend durability, even in humid or salty environments common in agricultural regions.

Energy Efficiency

Metal roofs reflect solar radiant heat, which helps keep agricultural buildings cooler during hot Florida summers. This reduces the demand on ventilation and cooling systems, lowering energy consumption and operating costs.



Additionally, metal roofing materials are often recyclable and lightweight, reducing installation time and expenses. Their long lifespan minimizes replacement costs. The combination of energy savings and lower maintenance makes metal roofing a cost-effective solution for farms aiming to control overhead.

Fire and Pest Resistance

Metal roofing provides a strong defense against fire hazards, as it is non-combustible and does not ignite from sparks or embers. This characteristic is vital for structures storing hay, chemicals, or equipment prone to fire risk.


The metal barrier also deters pests such as rodents and insects that can damage wood or insulation in other roof types. By reducing pest-related damage, metal roofs contribute to maintaining a safer and more hygienic environment for agricultural operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

We address common inquiries about metal roofing for agricultural buildings, focusing on customization and suitability. Our expertise ensures your unique farm structures receive the right solutions tailored to specific needs.

  • How much does metal roofing cost for barns and agricultural buildings?

    Metal roofing for agricultural buildings costs $8-15 per square foot installed. Exposed fastener systems run $8-12 per square foot, while standing seam costs $12-15 per square foot. Though 20-40% more expensive initially than traditional materials, metal roofing's 40-50 year lifespan and minimal maintenance make it cost-effective long-term for farm operations.


  • Will metal roofing protect my livestock and equipment from storms?

    Yes, properly installed metal roofing withstands winds up to 150+ mph, exceeding most hurricane-force winds in Southwest Florida. The interlocking panels and secure fastening create weather-tight barriers that prevent wind-driven rain infiltration. Metal also resists hail damage better than other materials, protecting valuable livestock and equipment from storm-related losses.


  • Does metal roofing prevent leaks in dairy barns and livestock facilities?

    Metal roofing significantly reduces leak risks through seamless panel design and proper installation. Standing seam systems eliminate exposed fasteners that can loosen over time. When installed with appropriate underlayment and ventilation, metal creates a moisture-resistant barrier that protects dairy equipment and maintains healthy livestock conditions.

  • What's the best metal roofing for poultry houses and chicken coops?

    Standing seam metal roofing works best for poultry facilities because it eliminates exposed fasteners vulnerable to ammonia corrosion. Galvalume or aluminum materials resist the corrosive poultry environment better than galvanized steel. The smooth surface enables easier cleaning for health management, while light colors reflect heat to reduce cooling costs and bird heat stress.

  • How does metal roofing handle moisture and humidity in livestock barns?

    Metal roofing manages moisture through integrated ventilation systems including ridge vents and soffit vents that remove humid air before condensation forms. Anti-condensation treatments prevent dripping onto livestock and feed. The non-porous metal surface resists mold and bacteria growth, while proper slope design ensures quick water runoff away from barn foundations.
