Metal Roofing built for salt, sun and storms.
Aluminum does not rust, and near the harbor, the beaches and the marsh that decides the material. We install coated aluminum panels on the coast and 24 or 26 gauge standing-seam steel where the salt does not reach. Exposed-fastener steel corrodes at the screw heads within a decade in salt air.
Standing seam locks panels together with concealed clips, so there are no penetrations through the panel face. Wind-uplift ratings run higher than any shingle's.
The Pearl package installs on a full synthetic underlayment with high-temperature ice and water barrier, new drip edge and trim in a matching coastal-rated finish.
Metal costs three to four times an architectural shingle roof up front and lasts two to three times as long. On a coastal home you plan to keep, the math favors metal.
Monthly ranges assume the price shown financed over 180 monthly payments with $0 down at 7.99% to 15.99% APR. Your lender sets your APR based on credit approval. Not all applicants qualify. Same price whether you pay cash or finance.
Four packages, published prices, 10 to 50 year workmanship warranty.

How much does a metal roof cost in Charleston?
The Pearl standing-seam package starts at $52,650 for a typical 1,800 square foot home, the same price whether you pay cash or finance. Complex roofs and premium colors run higher.
Is metal loud in the rain?
Not over a solid deck with underlayment. It sounds the same as a shingle roof from inside.
Aluminum or steel?
Aluminum on the coast. Inland, 24 or 26 gauge standing-seam steel is a sound, lower-cost option. We spec by exposure.
Will an HOA approve metal?
Most Lowcountry communities approve standing seam in approved colors. We handle the submission.
How long does metal last?
Fifty years and up. A manufacturer warranty is registered on every Pearl roof, on top of our 50-year workmanship warranty.
