Metal Roofing in Houston: Stronger, Cooler, and Built to Last

By Achilles Roofing — Houston Roofers That Know What Works

Let’s cut to the chase: metal roofing isn’t just a trend. It’s a long-term solution for Houston homeowners who want durability, efficiency, and serious curb appeal. Whether you’re done with constant repairs or just want something tougher than shingles, metal delivers — especially with our Texas heat, hurricanes, and hail.

At Achilles Roofing, we install metal roofs that don’t just survive the storm. They own it.


Why More Homeowners Are Choosing Metal

Metal roofing has come a long way. It’s not just for barns anymore — today’s metal systems look clean, modern, and are tough as nails. Here’s why more Houston homes are going metal:

  • Hurricane-Grade Strength – Stands up to 140+ mph winds

  • Energy Efficient – Reflects sunlight, cuts A/C bills

  • Fire & Hail Resistant – No cracking, no burning

  • 40- to 70-Year Lifespan – Way longer than shingles

  • Low Maintenance – No rot, moss, or broken tabs

  • Modern Styles – Standing seam, ribbed panels, even metal that looks like shingles


What We Install

At Achilles Roofing, we offer several metal roofing options to match your needs and your home’s style:

  • Standing Seam Metal Roofing
    Sleek vertical panels with hidden fasteners. Zero maintenance, clean lines, modern look.

  • R-panel / Corrugated Panels
    Affordable and tough — great for garages, shops, and ranch homes.

  • Metal Shingle Roofing
    Get the look of slate, tile, or wood with the strength of steel or aluminum.

We help you pick the one that fits your budget, needs, and HOA rules.


Is Metal Right for You?

Metal is ideal if:

  • Your roof keeps getting hail damage

  • You’re tired of re-roofing every 10–15 years

  • You want a one-and-done solution

  • You care about cooling costs

  • You want to raise your property value

It might cost more upfront than shingles — but you’ll save money in the long run on repairs, cooling, and replacements.


Our Process

We don’t just install metal — we do it the right way:

  • Tear-off or over existing roof (depending on code)

  • Inspect and prep decking

  • Lay down waterproof barrier

  • Custom-measure and cut panels on-site

  • Secure every seam tight

  • Finish with trim, flashing, and ventilation that seals the system

No gaps. No rattling. Just a rock-solid metal roof.


Final Word:

Metal roofing is tough, sleek, and long-lasting — perfect for Houston’s brutal weather. If you’re done playing defense with your roof, let’s talk metal. We’ll build something that lasts.
