Savannah Roof Pros provides professional metal roofing in Savannah, GA for residential and commercial properties across the Coastal Empire. Metal has been on Savannah roofs since long before it was fashionable. Terne-coated standing seam, flat-lock pans and pressed metal shingle cover a great deal of the older housing stock here, and on a protected building metal is frequently what the review expects to see going back on.
That history sets the standard for new work. Standing seam with concealed clips is the profile that belongs on a reviewed roofline, because the clips let the panel expand and contract while the seam stays locked, and because the finished surface reads correctly from the street. Flat-lock panels suit the shallow porch and bay roofs that are everywhere in the Victorian district. Seam spacing gets matched to what is already there rather than to the roll former's default.
Exposed-fastener panel is the profile we argue against here, and not on taste. Every screw is a hole through the panel held shut by a rubber gasket, and gaskets in this climate harden and shrink through a few hundred cycles of hot afternoons and damp nights until the screw works loose in its own hole. On a barn that is an acceptable maintenance item. On a house you intend to keep, it is a leak with a schedule.
Where new metal meets old metal, the pairing has to be deliberate. Savannah houses carry copper gutters, copper flashings and terne pans in place for generations, and putting the wrong metal or the wrong fastener against them creates a problem the original builders avoided by using one metal throughout. We specify compatible alloys and stainless attachment at those junctions, and we would rather change the specification than have a homeowner discover the mistake in a decade.
The assembly underneath deserves as much thought as the panel. Metal over an old plank deck wants a continuous high-temperature self-adhered membrane, because panel undersides run cold at night and hold condensation, and a felt layer will not tolerate that indefinitely. Where the roof structure allows it, a vented or battened assembly gives that underside somewhere to dry. That detail, more than the coating on the panel, decides how the roof ages.
We will also talk you out of it. On a Southside ranch or a two-year-old house in Pooler, metal costs a multiple of a good architectural shingle roof and buys service life you may not be there to collect. If you plan to sell inside a decade, take the shingle roof and put the difference somewhere it earns. If the house is protected, original or one you will hand on, metal is worth every dollar.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — standing-seam and flat-lock terne metal with concealed clips, through-wall counterflashing let into lime mortar joints, half-round copper gutter with round downspouts, one-by-six board sheathing over open rafters, Certificate of Appropriateness submittals to the Historic District Board of Review, self-adhered high-temperature underlayment at eaves and valleys — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Savannah and nearby communities including Pooler, Garden City, Port Wentworth, Thunderbolt.

Materials, equipment and how we do metal roofing
The difference between metal roofing that lasts and metal roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with standing-seam and flat-lock terne metal with concealed clips, through-wall counterflashing let into lime mortar joints, half-round copper gutter with round downspouts, one-by-six board sheathing over open rafters, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Savannah job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Coastal Empire means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
