## Price

$700-$1800 roofing square (100 sq ft) installed. 2026 published Boise-area installed pricing across both exposed-fastener and standing seam metal systems (HomeGuide, Angi 2026 national data cross-checked against mysignatureroofing.com's Boise-specific quote).

## What's included

- On-site inspection and a written per-square price before any work starts, broken out by panel system
- Full tear-off to the deck when code requires it — never a metal roof-over on a deck that can't take it
- Deck inspection and replacement of any rotten or delaminated sheathing, priced as its own line
- High-temperature synthetic underlayment across the field, ice-and-water membrane at eaves and valleys
- New flashing, drip edge, and closures at every penetration, chimney, and wall tie-in — not reused off the old roof
- Panel gauge, finish, and fastening system matched to the manufacturer's engineering spec for this climate
- Snow guards placed over entries, walkways, and lower roofs where sheet-slide is a real risk
- Full site cleanup with a magnet sweep for dropped fasteners and haul-away of the old roofing

## Process

01. **Free on-site inspection** - We walk the roof, check the deck from the attic side where we can, count penetrations and valleys, and hand you a written per-square price broken out by panel system — no pressure, no charge.
02. **Permit and panel order** - We pull the reroofing permit and order the exact panel system, gauge, and finish your roof needs — not a rounded-up estimate.
03. **Tear-off and install** - Deck repaired where needed, underlayment and flashing installed to spec, then panels installed with the fastening method — floating clip or through-fastened — engineered for this climate's thermal swing.
04. **Inspection and walkthrough** - Final inspection, magnet sweep for fasteners, gutters and landscaping checked for debris, and we walk the finished roof with you before we leave.

## When it's needed

- Panel seams separating or fasteners visibly backing out
- Rust bleeding at cut edges, fastener heads, or valleys
- Oil-canning (visible waviness) worsening across a panel run
- Leaks at penetrations, chimneys, or wall flashings
- Roof is a lower-grade galvanized system installed 20+ years ago and due for a proper upgrade
- Considering a switch from shingle to metal for the longer service life

## FAQ

**How long does a metal roof replacement take in Boise?**

Most single-family homes take two to four days once material is on-site, weather permitting — longer than shingle because panels are cut and fitted to the specific roof rather than laid from a bundle. Steep-pitch or heavily-cut roofs run longer. We give you a specific day estimate at the inspection.

**Should I choose standing seam or exposed-fastener?**

It depends on budget and how long you want to own the problem. Standing seam's floating-clip system handles Boise's thermal swing without loosening and typically runs 40-70 years with minimal maintenance. Exposed-fastener costs less up front but the screws need periodic re-tightening or replacement as the neoprene washers age — see our standing seam vs. exposed-fastener guide for the full comparison.

**Can you install metal over my existing shingles?**

Sometimes, if the deck and existing layer count support it — see our metal-over-shingles page for what qualifies. Many jobs are still full tear-offs, especially where the deck needs inspection or repair anyway.

**Do you handle the permit?**

Yes. Every city in this valley requires a reroofing permit even for a like-for-like metal reroof, and we pull it as part of the job.
