Our Expertise

Metal Roofing in Des Moines, Iowa.

Metal roofing is the longest-lasting residential roof material you can buy. Properly installed, a quality metal roof will last 50+ years — two to three times the life of asphalt shingles — while shrugging off the hail, wind, and snow load that Iowa weather delivers every year. That's why the homeowners who do the math usually land on metal for their second or third roof replacement.

Bakeris Roofing has been installing metal roofs in Central Iowa since 1990. The two most common residential systems we install are stone-coated steel (the most popular option for homeowners who want the curb appeal of traditional shingles with metal durability) and standing seam (the modern architectural look with hidden fasteners and the longest track record of watertight performance). We also handle corrugated and specialty metal panels for agricultural outbuildings and commercial projects.

Metal is Class 4 impact-resistant by default, which qualifies for Iowa's wind/hail insurance discount (typically 10-30% off that portion of your premium). The upfront cost is higher than asphalt — roughly 2-3x — but most homeowners break even within 15-20 years through the combination of insurance savings, energy savings (metal reflects rather than absorbs heat), and not needing another replacement. For a "forever home," metal is usually the right math.

FAQ

Metal Roofing FAQ

Metal roofing in Des Moines typically runs $12-18 per square foot installed for stone-coated steel and $14-22 per square foot for standing seam — roughly 2-3x the cost of asphalt shingles. Most average-sized Des Moines homes fall in the $22,000-$45,000 range for a complete metal roof. Insurance claim replacements can sometimes cover the metal upgrade depending on your policy.
