Metal Roofing Services
Custom Metal Roofing Services Built for Central Valley Homes
Asphalt shingles weren’t built for Central Valley summers. SunMade®’s metal roofing services replace worn-out, heat-damaged roofing with custom-built metal panels backed by a 40-year warranty, engineered to hold up against triple-digit heat, wind, and the wear that sends most shingle roofs back for repairs every decade or two. There’s no manufacturer’s off-the-shelf product here, and no subcontractors handling the install. Just one licensed, in-house SunMade® crew, from the first roof inspection to the last panel, for homeowners across Fresno and the Central Valley.

THE PROBLEM
Why More Central Valley Homeowners Are Choosing Metal Roofing Services Over Asphalt
Asphalt shingle roofs are built to a 15 to 20 year lifespan almost everywhere in the country, and Central Valley summers cut that shorter. Sustained triple-digit heat, intense UV exposure, and wide day-to-night temperature swings accelerate the curling, cracking, and granule loss that eventually turns into leaks and sagging. Homeowners end up paying for patch repairs every few years, then paying for a full tear-off and replacement on a schedule that’s shorter than they expected when they bought the house.
That’s the real cost of a cheap roof: it isn’t cheap, it’s deferred. Every asphalt reroof is close to a full-price repeat of the last one, on a timeline set by the weather and the materials, not by the homeowner’s budget or plans. A roof that needs replacing every 15 to 20 years means a homeowner who stays in their house for 30 or 40 years is paying for that same roof two or three times over.
Why Metal Roofing Is Built for the Long Term
Custom metal roofing changes that math. A properly installed metal roof is built to handle Central Valley heat and weather for decades longer than shingles, without the recurring patch-and-replace cycle. SunMade®’s custom-built metal roofing panels come with a 40-year warranty, which means the roof going on today is very likely the last roof this house needs for a generation.
It also means fewer surprises. Asphalt failure tends to show up gradually, then all at once, a small leak that’s actually evidence of a much bigger problem underneath. Metal roofing holds up as a system, resisting the cracking, curling, and granule breakdown that turns a small asphalt issue into a full replacement.

Lorraine's Metal Roof Transformation
From worn-out shingles to a beautiful new metal roof, Lorraine’s home in Prather has been completely transformed. As part of the same project, SunMade® also installed a new solar system and battery backup, giving her a roof built to last decades alongside the rest of the upgrade.
This project wasn’t just about improving curb appeal. It’s an investment in durability and peace of mind for decades to come.

Metal Roofing Services Built to Las
40-Year Warranty on Custom Metal Roofing
Custom-built metal roofing panels backed by a 40-year warranty, so your roof is protected for decades, not just until the next Central Valley summer.
Built for Central Valley Heat and Weather
Metal roofing resists the cracking, curling, and granule breakdown that shortens an asphalt roof's life under sustained triple-digit heat and intense UV exposure.
One In-House Crew, Start to Finish
No subcontractors. The same licensed SunMade® team handles the roof inspection, fabrication, and install, backed by a single 40-year warranty rather than a patchwork of vendor guarantees.
Solar-Ready When You're Ready
Every SunMade® metal roof is built to support solar mounting hardware and penetrations without compromising the roof's integrity, so adding solar later, or bundling it in now, is never a second project bolted onto the wrong roof. (See Metal Roofing With Solar for the full roofing-and-solar-together option, which adds SunMade's 25-year Solar Shield Warranty for the solar side.)
Not Sure If You Need a New Roof? Here's What to Know First
How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?
Common signs include curling or missing shingles, granules collecting in the gutters, visible sagging, daylight showing through the attic roof boards, or a roof older than 20 years, all of which show up faster under Central Valley heat than in milder climates.
What's the actual difference between a metal roof and a traditional shingle roof?
Shingle roofs typically last 15 to 20 years and need periodic patch repairs along the way. Metal roofing is built to last significantly longer, with far less maintenance, which is why it costs more upfront but less over the life of the roof.
Is metal roofing loud in the rain, or does it attract more heat?
Not with a properly installed system. A correctly installed metal roof with solid decking and insulation underneath performs quietly and actually reflects heat better than dark asphalt shingles, which is a real advantage in Central Valley summers.
Is custom metal roofing the same as the metal roofing sold at a big box store?
No. SunMade®’s metal roofing panels are custom-built for the home rather than an off-the-shelf manufacturer product, backed by a 40-year warranty on the finished install.
Common Questions While You're Comparing Roofing Options
Is metal roofing worth the extra cost compared to asphalt shingles?
The comparison isn’t metal roofing cost versus doing nothing, it’s metal roofing cost versus paying for two or three asphalt replacements over the same 30 to 40 years, plus the patch repairs in between. A 40-year warranty on the panels is offsetting a real, recurring future expense rather than just adding an upfront one.
How long does a metal roof actually last compared to asphalt?
SunMade®’s custom metal roofing panels carry a 40-year warranty, roughly double to triple the typical 15 to 20 year lifespan of an asphalt shingle roof in this climate.
Does a metal roof cost more to insure, or does it lower my premium?
If I'm not doing solar right now, does it still make sense to go with metal roofing?
Metal roofing stands on its own as a durability and cost-over-time decision, independent of solar. If you do want solar later, or want to bundle it in now, a SunMade® metal roof is already built to support it. (See Metal Roofing With Solar for that option.)
