Tin Roof Co. / Metal roofing & repair
We fit metal roofs. We fix roof leaks.
Metal roofing and roof repair for Austin homes. Our roofing crew installs new metal coverings, traces leaks and replaces old roofs. Small seasonal repairs belong here, too.
Price follows the scope. Roof area and pitch, safe access, panel profile and the condition beneath the covering determine the work. A repair also depends on the failed detail and the route water takes.
No binding prices online. Site review comes before a project quote. Find the failure before naming the job.

01 / Covering & detailsA new roof. Or the right repair.
Metal panels often fail at details before they fail in the field. An open flashing seam calls for a different conversation from a worn covering. These are separate jobs, not four names for a replacement sale.
New metal roof installation
Metal roof installation in Austin starts with the shape of the roof, not a color swatch. Panel runs need to meet valleys, walls and roof edges without leaving the flashing to solve a bad layout. We discuss the covering alongside the underlayment and the details around every penetration.
This suits a homeowner planning a new metal covering who wants the material and installation scope considered together. Ribbed metal panels and standing seam systems have different fixing arrangements. The profile, supporting roof and manufacturer’s requirements set the fastening pattern and movement allowance; a single rule does not fit every system.
| Covering | Metal profile and requested finish, selected for the proposed roof system. |
|---|---|
| Below the panels | Underlayment and the supporting deck condition need their own scope. |
| Edges & openings | Eaves, ridges, wall junctions and penetration flashing are part of planning, not optional finishing touches. |
Price basis / inquiry onlyRoof area, pitch, access, metal profile, underlayment, flashing, penetrations, and requested finish after site review.

Roof leak repair
A stain on the ceiling tells you where water arrived. It does not tell you where it entered. For roof leak repair in Austin, we separate the indoor symptom from seams, fasteners and flashing on the roof. Water can travel along a panel or supporting member before it drops inside.
A localized repair suits a roof with a serviceable covering and an identifiable failed detail. Old screw holes, damaged washers and lifted flashing need different treatments. Adding sealant over an unexplained leak can hide the evidence without correcting the opening. Tell us whether the leak follows every rain or only wind-driven weather.
| Observed symptom | Interior location, timing and any change during wind or sustained rainfall. |
|---|---|
| Roof detail | Seam condition, exposed fasteners and flashing interfaces near the suspected path. |
| Repair boundary | The identified detail and the adjoining material needed to make a workable repair. |
Price basis / inquiry onlyAccess, leak conditions, failed fasteners or seams, flashing, weather exposure, and the repair scope found on inspection.

Old roof replacement
Metal roof replacement in Austin needs a clear boundary between the old covering and what sits under it. A failing panel does not prove the deck has failed. Equally, a new covering will not correct a damaged deck that has been left out of the job.
Replacement is a separate decision when deterioration is spread across the roof or a contained repair no longer fits the condition. We discuss tear-off and disposal as work in their own right. Deck exposure, ventilation conditions and existing flashing affect what can be retained and what needs to be addressed before new panels go down.
| Remove | Existing covering and the agreed associated material, with disposal described. |
|---|---|
| Expose | Deck and concealed conditions that cannot be confirmed from the roof surface alone. |
| Replace | Metal system, underlayment and detail work defined in the proposed scope. |
Price basis / inquiry onlyExisting covering, tear-off conditions, deck exposure, disposal, access, replacement metal system, and detail work.

Small seasonal roof repair
A loose edge detail does not automatically call for a new roof. Small roof repair in Austin can be a contained job: a weather-related opening, damaged trim or a fastener detail that needs correction. The surrounding metal must still be sound enough to accept the repair.
Seasonal roof repair suits a specific change you have noticed after weather, rather than a request to coat over unknown damage. Matching a replacement part matters. Metal compatibility and the condition of the fixing point affect the repair; simply tightening a fastener into an enlarged hole is not the same as restoring its hold.
| Location | Roof edge, trim or another limited detail that can be identified for review. |
|---|---|
| Parts | Compatible metal, fixing or flashing material suited to the existing detail. |
| Access | A small defect may still require substantial safe access arrangements. |
Price basis / inquiry onlyIssue location, material, safe access, replacement parts, weather damage, and the extent of the observed repair.

Roof plane / Water path
Water takes the shortest path. We trace it back.
The panel field is only part of the roof. The work has to make sense where metal meets a wall, turns an edge or opens around a pipe.
A scope you can question
02 / Review before recommendationName the failure. Define the work.
An inquiry is reviewed before any scope is discussed. The useful proof is in the detail: which material is affected, how it can be reached and what the proposed work actually covers.
Our roofing crew separates an observed problem from an assumption. A photograph can show an open seam. It cannot establish the condition of a concealed deck. That distinction belongs in the conversation before it becomes a cost.
Read how the crew approaches a scope, including safe photographs and the difference between a repair decision and a replacement decision.
| Roof access | How can the affected area be reached? Pitch, height and ground-level restrictions affect the work even when the damaged area is small. |
|---|---|
| Covering | Which metal profile is present, and what is known about the underlayment? A material match involves more than color. |
| Detail condition | Are fastener holes enlarged, flashing laps open or seam edges damaged? Note previous patches rather than treating them as sound original material. |
| Water entry | Where is the visible symptom, and under which weather conditions does it appear? Keep the symptom separate from the suspected entry point. |
| Requested outcome | Is the request for a contained repair or a replacement covering? Work outside that boundary needs its own discussion. |
Written scope should distinguish included work from unresolved conditions. It is not a promise that every concealed issue can be seen before opening the roof.
Fit is part of the scope.
Cut edges, folded details and panel lengths affect how a roof goes together. The proposed material has to suit the roof it joins. A generic patch specification leaves too much unanswered.
01 / Send the problem
Send the property address and what changed. You do not need to identify the failed component before contacting us. An indoor symptom and a description of the weather give the conversation a starting point.
02 / Discuss review
After the inquiry is reviewed, discuss missing information and the access needed to assess the roof. Appointment availability and any next steps are confirmed directly; submitting a form does not reserve a visit.
03 / Set the boundary
Once the condition can be assessed, discuss repair or replacement and the price basis. The written scope identifies the proposed work, with concealed conditions kept separate from confirmed findings.
04 / Agree before work
Review the scope and project-specific terms before authorizing work. Material availability, safe access and weather affect scheduling. An inquiry is not an instruction to start.
Not every leak needs replacement.
We repair a sound roof before recommending replacement. A repair still needs serviceable metal around it. If repeated patches are sitting over widespread deterioration, discuss the covering rather than ordering another patch by name.
Need a price from a photo?
A photo helps start the review, not settle a binding quote. This service is not for buying roofing materials online or booking a guaranteed emergency arrival. Roof leak inspection in Austin needs access and conditions discussed directly.
Put the roof on the record
Tell us what the rain changed.
Start with the location and the problem. If the roof type is unknown, say so. Stay off the roof to gather information; a description from inside or from ground level is enough to begin.
