McDonough Metal Roofing Installation
Why Choose Metal Roofing
Metal roofing has accelerated in Henry County over the past decade — particularly on the newer subdivisions where homeowners are trading shingle replacement cycles for a 50-year roof, and on the rural McDonough properties out toward Highway 81 where metal has long been standard on outbuildings. We install standing seam and stone-coated steel systems on McDonough homes from our Jackson base 25 minutes south.

Built for Georgia Weather
A properly-installed standing seam metal roof on a McDonough home should give 50+ years of service. We use 24-gauge Galvalume substrate with synthetic high-temperature underlayment, clip spacing per manufacturer for the wind ratings McDonough sees, and careful flashing detail at every penetration.
ProfessionalInstallation Only
The install details that separate a 50-year metal roof from a 20-year metal roof: synthetic high-temp underlayment (not #15 felt), proper clip spacing for wind rating, panel hem at eaves, panel-to-flashing detail at penetrations, and ridge ventilation that maintains panel integrity. We do all of this on every McDonough metal install.
