How Do I Buy From A Metal Roofing Manufacturer Near Me?


You need a new roof and have decided to go with metal- congratulations! Now, you’re probably wondering how to get the process started. 


At Western States Metal Roofing, we’re here to help as we’ve been metal roofing manufacturers for over 25 years and work with architects, contractors and homeowners on their roofing and siding projects everyday.


While you can purchase your metal roofing from a contractor or a roofing distributor, a metal roofing manufacturer is your best option to save money on your metal roof. Most metal roofing manufacturers do not sell directly to homeowners. However, Western States Metal Roofing is one of the few exceptions to the rule that does work directly with homeowners and roofing contractors. No matter which company you consider, we advise checking Google Reviews on any company you plan on working with to make sure they are reputable.


In this article, we will focus on the step-by-step process of purchasing metal roofing through a metal roofing manufacturer.

What Do I Need To Know Before Getting A Metal Roof?

Choose Your Panel Profile/ Color/ Gauge

Submit A Materials List

Request A Quote

Place Order

Delivery or Pickup (if local)


Choose The Type Of Metal Roofing

There are different types of metal roofs and before you can place an order, you have to know what it is you are looking to buy.


You must decide on: 


The panel profile 

The color 

The gauge 

Metal Roofing Panel Profile

Metal roofing panels come in concealed fastener and exposed fastener panels. 

Submit A Materials List For A Metal Roof

A materials list is the list of products needed to complete a metal roofing project. This includes everything such as:


panel quantity 

sheet lengths for each panel

trim and flashing pieces

the pitch of your roof

metal roofing underlayment

accessories

The process of developing the materials list is known as a take-off. Some manufacturers will do a takeoff for you, otherwise you will need a roofing professional such as a contractor to create one.


Keep in mind that not all manufacturers provide a take-off service. Western States Metal Roofing does complementary take-offs for projects over 3,000 sq ft. Here is the full take-off policy at Western States Metal Roofing.
