“Had these guys tear down the old metal roof on our barn before we put up the new panels, and they hauled off every last piece of scrap. Whole thing was done in two days with a crew of four. Honestly didn't expect it to go that smooth.”
Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing
“We wanted copper over the front porch to match the age of the house, and Lincoln Metal Roofing nailed it. The seams are tight and the patina is already starting to look right. Worth every penny.”
Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing
“Our hay shed out past the county line had rusted-through panels and they replaced the whole run with ribbed steel. They worked around our equipment without any fuss and cleaned up the old screws and trimmings. Solid rural outfit.”
Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing
“Put a standing seam roof on our house and it looks fantastic. Crew of three knocked it out in about four days, and they swept the yard with a magnet for stray screws before they left.”
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
“They fixed the ventilation issue on our tôle roof and re-fastened a bunch of loose screws while they were up there. Took a little longer than quoted, but the attic stays way cooler now and no more rattling in the wind.”
Metal Roof Repair
“We went with the retrofit over our old shingles on the brick house and couldn't be happier. No tear-off mess, and the new panels went on in three days. The house looks twenty years younger.”
Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit)
“Our Tudor-style brick home needed something that matched the character, and the metal shingle system they recommended was perfect. Neighbors keep asking who did it. Flashing around the chimney is flawless.”
Metal Shingle Roofing
“Replaced the old asphalt roof on our place with a stone-coated steel system and it's been night and day. Two-day install, zero leaks through the last round of storms, and the crew left the driveway spotless.”

Homeowners searching for a metal roofing contractor near me in Lincoln need straight answers, not a sales pitch, and that is exactly what Lincoln Metal Roofing delivers. We install, replace, retrofit, and repair metal roofs across Lincoln and the surrounding communities of Waverly, Hickman, Bennet, and Ashland, working on everything from steep-pitch Victorian and Prairie-style roofs near the Country Club area to low-slope ranch homes in Bethany and Belmont. Our network of licensed, bonded, and insured local contractors understands how hail, straight-line wind, and freeze-thaw cycles stress flashing and eaves on eastern Nebraska homes.
We also service the region's large stock of aging screw-down roofs on shops, barns, and outbuildings, where backing-out fasteners are the leading cause of leaks. Whether you need a full metal roof installation or a targeted repair, we match the system to your roof pitch, tree cover, and exposure before recommending anything.
Most metal roof leaks in Lincoln trace back to a handful of predictable failures. On 15 to 30 year old exposed-fastener roofs, the number one culprit is fasteners backing out as their EPDM sealing washers dry, shrink, and crack, letting wind-driven rain slip past the screw head. Thermal movement, the daily expansion and contraction of panels under a wide Great Plains sky, can separate seams over time. Failed pipe boots and flashing at chimneys, skylights, and valleys are another common entry point, and spring hailstorms or tornado-season straight-line wind can lift and peel panels or drive fallen limbs through the metal.
Ignoring a small leak is expensive. Water tracks along purlins and decking far from the point of entry, so by the time a stain shows on your ceiling, rotted sheathing and saturated insulation may already be at work. That is why our first step is a thorough metal roof leak repair inspection to find the actual source, not just the wet spot.
The honest repair-versus-replace call matters here. If the panels are sound and the leak is at fasteners or flashing, a full screw replacement and re-fastening with new sealing washers often restores a watertight roof for a fraction of replacement cost. When panels are rusted through or the deck is compromised, replacement is the smarter long-term spend. Call (402) 858-4652 to talk through which path fits your roof.
We install the full range of metal systems, and the right one depends on your home, your budget, and how much maintenance you want to sign up for. Standing Seam Metal Roofing uses concealed clips and no exposed screws, making it the premium choice with the least long-term upkeep. Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing is the economical workhorse for cabins, barns, and workshops, though its fasteners need servicing over the life of the roof. We also install Metal Shingle Roofing, impact-rated Stone-Coated Steel Roofing built to survive hail, and Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing for accents and historic homes.
On many Lincoln homes with a sound deck, Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) is a legitimate way to save on tear-off and disposal. When the decking is soft or layered shingles have reached their limit, a full tear-off and Metal Roof Replacement is the honest call.
Metal roof pricing in Lincoln is typically quoted per square foot for installations, while repairs are often flat-rate. The final number depends on the panel system and metal gauge, roof pitch and complexity, tear-off versus recover, decking condition, and access. We frame every figure as a typical range because final pricing depends on the roof and site conditions, and we would rather give you an accurate number than a lowball one that grows later.
Some carriers may offer premium discounts for metal or impact-rated roofs, but that is between you and your insurer. For a clearer picture of how systems and scopes compare, visit our pricing page, then request a free estimate or a no-pressure roof inspection.
After a hailstorm or wind event, we inspect the roof and provide written documentation with photos that you may submit to your own insurer. We are not an insurance adjuster or agent, coverage decisions rest with your carrier, and we make no promise that a claim will be approved. We document what we find; you and your insurer decide what happens next.
On permits, in most jurisdictions a permit is commonly required for a full replacement or re-roof, but requirements vary by city, and fees and inspection thresholds are set locally. Historic district or HOA design review can also affect panel profile and color choices. Requirements vary, so always verify with the Lincoln building or planning department before starting your project. If you have questions about documentation or scheduling, contact us and we will walk you through it.
