Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Our standing seam metal roofing system combines 24-gauge Galvalume-coated steel with Kynar paint for maximum durability. This premium solution resists corrosion, withstands extreme weather, and maintains its appearance for decades. The interlocking panel design prevents water infiltration while allowing for thermal expansion and contraction, making it ideal for Michigan's variable climate.
Commercial Roofing
We provide energy-efficient commercial roofing solutions using Duro-Last Membrane systems with 20-year warranties. Our fast-installation process minimizes business disruption while meeting strict energy codes. These roofs feature high reflectivity, fire resistance, and wind compliance certifications, making them ideal for commercial properties seeking long-term cost savings and performance.
On-Site Roll Forming
Our on-site roll forming capability creates custom metal panels tailored to each project's specifications. This process eliminates size limitations, reduces transportation costs, and ensures perfect fit for complex architectural designs. We maintain quality control throughout fabrication while adapting to site-specific requirements during installation.
Solar Metal Roofing
Our solar-compatible metal roofing systems provide a durable foundation for future solar panel installations. The standing seam design allows easy attachment of solar mounting systems without roof penetration. This forward-thinking solution combines energy production capabilities with the proven performance of steel roofing, maximizing long-term energy savings.
Custom Metal Roof Details
We create custom metal components including flashings, valleys, and trim pieces to complement each roofing system. Our in-house fabrication ensures seamless integration with existing architecture while maintaining watertight integrity. These tailored details enhance both functionality and aesthetic appeal for unique roofing projects.

Dan came over at a moments notice and reviewed our roof. We really appreciated his honesty. He was able to provide a solution and guide us to contractors that would be best suited to address our particular issue. It's refreshing to deal with such an honest person.

I am really pleased with the work perkins crew did on my house. On rainy days with the package I went with the insulation they put on my roof helps dampen the sound of the rain hitting my roof I also have noticed it has been cooler in my house. I seen the work that they did to my house and the extra effort they put in to make their work even better I am so happy I got a Dan Perkins roof on my house. I cant stop smiling at the roof on my house knowing the three layers of shingles that were on my house are now gone forever. Even is the hot heat the crew still worked thru it to get it done. So
