Choosing the right metal roof for your home

A metal roof is one of the most practical long-term investments you can make in a Gulf Coast home. It stands up to hurricane-force wind and the heavy rain the region is known for, won't rot or curl in the heat and humidity, and can last 40 to 70 years — often outliving several asphalt roofs. For many homeowners it also lowers cooling costs and can help with insurance.

The right system depends on your home. Standing seam gives a clean, modern line with hidden fasteners; R-panel is a rugged, budget-friendly choice; and metal shingles deliver the look of wood shake, slate, or dimensional shingles with the strength of metal. TyMar Exterior installs all three and helps you weigh style, budget, and how long you plan to stay before you decide.

TyMar is a veteran-owned contractor serving New Orleans, the North Shore, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Whether you're replacing an aging shingle roof or building new, you'll get straightforward guidance and a free, no-obligation estimate for your home.

Standing Seam Metal Roofing

A Premium Metal Roof With Fewer Exposed Leak Points

Standing seam is the premium metal roofing option for homeowners who want hurricane, tropical-storm, and high-wind protection with a clean roofline and fewer exposed screws.

Fewer exposed fasteners means fewer weak spots where wind and rain can loosen seals over time. One of our experts will walk you through whether standing seam is worth the higher upfront investment for your home, roof shape, budget, and how long you plan to stay.

Our Standing Seam Roofs Come With:

  • Hurricane Protection: Built to help protect your home during hurricanes, tropical storms, and high wind
  • Fewer Leak Points: Hidden fasteners leave fewer exposed screw holes for rain to find
  • High Wind & Hail Resistance: Built for Gulf Coast storm conditions, wind, and heavy rain
  • Extreme Durability: A long service life can help you avoid repeated asphalt replacements
  • Energy Efficiency: Reflective finishes can help reduce heat entering the home
  • Low Maintenance: Less ongoing upkeep than shingles that can curl, crack, or lose tabs
  • Sleek Appearance: Clean vertical lines can make the roof look more finished and high-end

Metal Shingle Roofing

Traditional Roof Looks With Metal Roof Protection

Classic metal shingles are for homeowners who want a lifetime warranty and hurricane protection without giving up the look of shingles, shakes, or slate.

TyMar helps you compare the warranty, look, cost, and long-term protection of metal shingle systems. Interlocking panels help the roof stay tighter in wind-driven rain, while durable metal construction helps reduce worries about curling, cracking, and repeated replacement cycles.

Our Metal Shingle Roofs Are:

  • Backed by a lifetime warranty that one of our experts will explain during your estimate
  • Built to help protect your home during hurricanes and tropical storms
  • Built for a longer replacement cycle than asphalt shingles
  • Designed to stay tighter against wind and wind-driven rain
  • Made to reduce maintenance from rot, curling, splitting, and cracking
  • Available in styles and colors that protect curb appeal
Call TyMar and we will help you decide whether a metal shingle roof fits your home.

R-Panel Metal Roofing

Metal Roof Durability At A More Practical Price

R-Panel is a good fit when you want the strength and long life of metal roofing but need to keep the project more budget-conscious than standing seam.

The fasteners are visible on this system, so it is not the same premium leak-resistant design as standing seam. The tradeoff is lower cost, durable performance, and a straightforward look that works well for many homes, shops, barns, and outbuildings.

Our R-Panel roofs are:

  • Budget-Friendly: A lower upfront price than many premium metal roof systems
  • Tough and Long-Lasting: Can last decades when installed and maintained correctly
  • Easy to Install: A simpler install can help keep project cost and timeline under control
  • Versatile Look: Works for homes, shops, garages, barns, and other practical buildings
  • Resistant to Wind and Moisture: Built to shed Gulf Coast rain and handle tough weather
