In Oklahoma, you have only 1 year from the date of storm damage to file an insurance claim. After that, your right to a claim expires — even if the damage is obvious.
Low insurance payout? No problem — flexible financing available so your roof gets fixed no matter what.
Class 4 impact rating — the highest available. Metal roofs withstand golf-ball-sized hail without cracking, denting, or losing material.
Reflective metal panels reduce cooling costs during Oklahoma's 100°+ summers. Many homeowners save $1,500+ per year on energy bills.
Impact-resistant metal roofing qualifies for premium discounts up to 35% with most Oklahoma insurance carriers.
Metal roofing adds an average of 6% to resale value and recoups 85–95% of installation cost at sale.
Sheds ice and snow, resists UV degradation, and handles thermal expansion from Oklahoma's -10° to 110° temperature swings.
No granule loss, no curling, no cracking, no moss or algae. Metal roofing looks and performs like new for decades with zero upkeep.

That is why choosing the right installer matters more than the material itself. We are certified in standing seam, corrugated, and stone-coated steel — and we follow manufacturer specifications to the letter.
