Residential Roofing

What is Metal Roofing?

Metal roofing is a long-lasting roofing system built from steel, aluminum, or other metal panels designed to shed water, resist fire, and hold up against severe weather far longer than traditional materials. A properly installed metal roof can last 40 to 70 years, well beyond the 20 to 30-year lifespan of asphalt shingles.

Metal performs especially well in extreme conditions. It resists wind, sheds snow instead of holding it, and reflects heat rather than absorbing it, which can help lower cooling costs in the warmer months. For homeowners who want to install a roof once and not think about it again for decades, metal is one of the strongest options available.

Metal roofing requires a different installation process than asphalt or composite systems, with panel alignment, fastening, and flashing details that directly affect how well the roof performs over time. A poorly installed metal roof can lead to leaks, panel movement, or premature wear, even with high-quality material. J&L Roofing brings the same owner-supervised process to metal installations that we bring to every roof, so the workmanship matches the durability of the material.

I had my roof done by J&L roofing a week ago. It was a great experience working with Luke. After the estimate he emailed me then followed up later that night to ask if I had any questions, Which I did. I sent him pictures and he explained everything to me step by step. He had the best rate and the day of the work to start he showed up and talked me thru what to expect for the day. His guys tented and cleaned as they went. No issues at all with anything. After they were done he let me know if there was any concerns around the porches and even fixed some of the parts that weren't even part of the roof. He just saw something and went that extra mile for me. No extra cost. The roof was beautiful! I am very happy with the outcome of everything and the follow ups and going the extra mile when he just saw something that he could quick fix was amazing. I will definitely be recommending them!

I reached out to J&L Roofing to inquire about my roofing needs. Luke was at my house the next day and spent over an hour with me (in the rain) to answer all of my questions. My shingles were over 35 years old and a rubber roof was starting to fail after 25 years. I instantly felt at ease talking with Luke as he gave me several suggestions about how I could go about doing everything all at once or possibly staggering the work. He was happy to quote the job several ways based on the work I selected. I decided to get all of the work completed at once. Luke is at every job site working alongside his crew. He’s happy to answer any questions you may have along the way. I was amazed at how he and his crew were able to complete all of the work in a day. The men were all courteous and professional and hard working. Clean up was thorough and the completed job looks absolutely amazing. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Luke and his crew did a great job on my roof last august . They used top end shingles and it was for a nice price. He kept in contact with me during the process letting me know the schedule. The crew was courteous and took care not to damage anything around the house. They cleaned up nice upon completion. I would definitely use this company again. Joe k. Douglassville pa
