“We had Providence Metal Roofing put a new metal roof on our brick house and it looks fantastic. The crew of four finished the whole thing in about three days and cleaned up so well you couldn't even tell they'd been there.”
Metal Roof Installation
“They replaced the old metal panels over our porch with standing seam and matched the trim perfectly. Took a little longer than quoted but the result is sharp and no more drips.”
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
“Our barn roof was rusting through and they came out and did a full metal roof replacement on it. Big job, but the crew knocked it out fast and now the hay and equipment stay dry even in heavy rain.”
Commercial & Agricultural Metal Roofing
“Didn't know you could put metal right over the old shingles, but they walked me through the retrofit and saved me a ton of money. The house looks brand new from the street.”
Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit)
“They installed snow guards on our metal roof before winter and I'm so relieved. Last year we had sheets of snow sliding off the roof, this year nothing. Quick job, fair price.”
Snow Guards & Ice Protection
“Providence Metal Roofing did a full replacement on our house and honestly the cleanup was what impressed me most. They hauled away every last screw and scrap, and the new roof looks incredible.”
Metal Roof Replacement
“Had a leak around the chimney that two other guys couldn't figure out. These folks found it, fixed the flashing, and it hasn't leaked since. Wish I'd called them first.”
Metal Roof Leak Repair
“Got a full inspection before buying a house with a metal roof. They were thorough and honest, told me the roof had years left and didn't try to sell me anything. Solid, trustworthy outfit.”

Homeowners searching for a metal roofing contractor near me in Providence want a crew that understands this city's housing stock, not a call center three states away. Providence Metal Roofing is a network of licensed, bonded, and insured local contractors who install, replace, re-roof, and repair metal systems on the Federal, Georgian, and Victorian homes of College Hill and the East Side, the three-deckers of Federal Hill and Olneyville, the brick ranches of Cranston and Warwick, and the mill-village frame houses of Central Falls and Woonsocket. We work in Providence, East Providence, Pawtucket, Central Falls, Cranston, and the surrounding areas.
This is a compact New England port city at the head of Narragansett Bay, and the conditions here are specific: nor'easters driving wind and wet snow, freeze-thaw cycles that work fasteners loose, ice dams at the eaves, salt-laden bay air that corrodes cheap washers and coatings, and a large stock of aging screw-down roofs across the region. If you need straight guidance on a metal roof repair or a full replacement, start there.
Most metal roof leaks in Providence trace back to a short list of failures, and each has a plain explanation. On 15 to 30 year old exposed-fastener roofs, the number one cause is fasteners backing out as their EPDM sealing washers dry, shrink, and crack, letting water past the screw head. Seams separate as panels expand and contract with thermal movement. Pipe boots and flashing fail at chimneys, skylights, and valleys, where different materials meet and water concentrates. Wind-lifted panels after a nor'easter open laps and expose the underlayment. Fallen oak and white pine limbs puncture panels outright.
Ignoring any of these makes it worse. Water tracks along purlins and decking far from the entry point, so a stain on your ceiling may sit ten feet from the actual gap. Rotted sheathing and saturated insulation follow, and the repair grows from a few fasteners to structural work. That is why we push for a proper metal roof leak repair early rather than a bucket and a prayer.
The honest call between repair and replacement is usually clearer than homeowners expect. If the panels are sound and the failure is at the fasteners, a full screw replacement and re-fastening with new sealing washers often restores a watertight roof for a fraction of replacement cost. If the metal itself is perforated or the deck is soft, replacement is the better money. Call (401) 414-3310 and we will tell you which one you actually need, or request a free estimate.
We install the full range of metal systems and match the product to the house, not the other way around. Standing Seam Metal Roofing uses concealed clips and raised seams for a clean, premium roof with no exposed screws to maintain. Corrugated & Ribbed Panel Roofing is the economical workhorse for barns, workshops, and outbuildings. We also install Metal Shingle Roofing, Stone-Coated Steel Roofing, and Copper & Specialty Metal Roofing for historic churches, bays, and cupolas.
The honest comparison is simple: standing seam costs more up front and has no exposed fasteners to service, while screw-down costs less and needs its fasteners checked over the life of the roof. When the deck is sound, Metal Roof Over Shingles (Retrofit) is a legitimate option that saves on tear-off and disposal. When it is not, tear-off is the right answer, and we will say so.
Metal roof installation is typically quoted per square foot, while repairs are often flat-rate, and the price depends on the panel system and metal gauge, roof pitch and complexity, tear-off versus recover, decking condition, and access. We give typical ranges rather than fixed numbers because final pricing depends on the roof and site conditions. Some carriers may offer premium discounts for metal or impact-rated roofs, but that is between you and your insurer. See our pricing page for context.
The best way to get a real number is a free estimate or free roof inspection, with the scope written out so you can compare systems honestly.
After a storm, 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. On permits, in most jurisdictions a permit is commonly required for a full replacement or re-roof, but requirements vary by city, and thresholds, fees, and inspection requirements must be confirmed locally. Historic district or HOA design review can also restrict panel profile and color. Requirements vary, so always verify with the Providence building or planning department before starting your project.
