Frequently Asked Questions

Smart Questions to Ask Your Metal Roofing Contractor

1. Why choose a metal roof over shingles?

Metal roofing outperforms shingles in nearly every category. It lasts 2–3 times longer, withstands higher wind speeds, resists hail and fire, reflects heat for better energy efficiency, and is fully recyclable. While shingles may need replacing every 10–15 years, a Pro Time metal roof is designed to last decades with minimal maintenance.

2. What makes Pro Time different from other roofers?

Many roofers install pre-cut panels or take shortcuts. At Pro Time, we site-form every panel with our portable roll former for a custom fit. We also back our work with Amish craftsmanship, Christian & family values, and a 48-hour response guarantee for peace of mind.

3. How long does a Pro Time metal roof last?

Our standing seam and metal panels are engineered for longevity. Backed by a 40-year warranty, a properly installed Pro Time roof will last 50 years or more.

4. What kind of warranty do you provide?

Every Pro Time roof includes:
  • 40-Year Paint Warranty
  • Matching 40-Year Workmanship Warranty (if the paint lasts, so will our work!)
  • 48-Hour Response Guarantee on any leaks or issues (conditions apply: business hours, weather permitting).

5. What ratings do your panels carry?

Our roofing systems are:
  • 140 MPH Wind Rated
  • Class 4 Impact Rated (hail & storm protection)
  • Class A Fire Rated
  • Backed by decades of proven performance.

6. How does Pro Time handle installation quality?

We don’t cut corners. Every roof is installed with the same care we’d give our own family’s home. That means correct fasteners, code-compliant practices, and attention to detail from start to finish.

7. What should I ask other contractors before deciding?

  • Do they match their paint warranty with a workmanship warranty? (Pro Time does.)
  • Are they using true 26-gauge steel for standing seam? (Anything thinner risks failure.)
  • Will they site-form panels for a perfect fit, or are they ordering pre-cut lengths?
  • How do they handle expansion, contraction, and water-tight seams?

8. What is the installation process like?

Our proven process is simple and clear:
  1. Site inspection & estimate
  2. Contract signing
  3. Tentative date communicated
  4. 24–48 hour notice before start
  5. Project started & finished
  6. Final inspection & payment collection
  7. Completed packet + review & referral request

9. Will a metal roof increase my home’s value?

Yes. Metal roofs are considered a premium upgrade and often raise property value by 3–6%. Buyers appreciate the warranty, durability, and low maintenance compared to shingles.

10. Is metal roofing environmentally friendly?

Absolutely. Our roofs are 100% recyclable, reflect heat to reduce energy costs, and last decades longer than shingles — meaning less waste in landfills.

11. Do you install more than just roofs?

Yes! In addition to metal roofing, we also provide:
  • Metal siding
  • Soffit & fascia
  • Seamless gutters
  • Flat roofing systems
  • Pole barns
