Metal Roofing for Garland Brick Ranches and Firewheel Two-Storeys
Garland took a direct hit when the December 26, 2015 EF4 tornado crossed I-30 at the Rowlett line, and the city still sits in Dallas County’s spring hail corridor. Permanent Metal Roofing Systems answers that with roofs built for the job: standing seam, stone-coated steel and metal shingles for homes, plus PBR panels, custom flashing and metal gutters for shops and commercial buildings. Garland spans parts of Dallas, Collin and Rockwall counties, and the city is about 7 miles from our Mesquite office, so most visits are a quick trip north.

Matching a Metal Roof to Garland Homes
Central Garland is mostly 1960s-80s single-storey brick ranches on slab foundations, in older areas such as Club Hill. Their roofs are typically low hips and gables with a flatter patio cover off the back, and those patio tie-ins are where shingles hold water and leak first. Snap lock standing seam handles the main roof. Mechanical lock, rated to 1/2:12 with high-temperature underlayment, handles the patio. North and east, near Firewheel, the 1990s-2000s two-storey brick subdivisions have larger roofs under HOA review, where stone-coated steel or a metal shingle keeps the expected look while upgrading the material underneath.
We serve Firewheel, Downtown Garland Square, Duck Creek and Club Hill, plus homes near the Lake Ray Hubbard shoreline, Firewheel Town Center and the I-635 and President George Bush Turnpike junction.
Why Garland Roofs Take a Beating
The December 26, 2015 tornado destroyed hundreds of Garland homes after crossing I-30, and hail was reported in the city again on April 8, 2024. No roof is tornado-proof, but uplift design matters in the straight-line winds that hit far more often: we space concealed clips closer at eaves, rakes and ridges, and site-specific engineering is available on request. For hail, stone-coated steel and many metal shingles carry manufacturer UL 2218 Class 4 ratings, and a 24-gauge panel shows fewer cosmetic dents than 26-gauge. Class 4 insurance credits vary, because each carrier sets its own.
- Honest advice on what Class 4 does and does not cover, including cosmetic denting
- Dated storm-damage photos and measurements
- No pressure and no door-to-door storm chasing

Metal Roofing Systems We Install in Garland
Garland splits two ways. In the central ranch neighborhoods, snap lock standing seam on the main roof and mechanical lock on low patio covers solve the most common leak points. Near Firewheel, HOA homes lean toward stone-coated steel and metal shingles that pass review. Shops and small commercial buildings along the I-635 and turnpike corridors take PBR or standing seam with custom flashing.
Standing Seam Metal Roofing
Snap lock and mechanical lock panels with concealed clips, roll-formed in-house and cut to the length of each Garland roof run.
Stone-Coated Steel
DECRA shake, shingle and tile profiles that keep a traditional look on Garland homes in HOA neighborhoods.
Metal Shingles and Shakes
Aluminum and steel shakes and slate-look shingles for homeowners who want metal performance without a ribbed look.
Shop, Barn and Porch Panels
Exposed-fastener panels that cover big outbuildings at a lower cost per square foot than standing seam.
Custom Flashing and Chimney Caps
Flashing fabricated in-house on computerized equipment, so every transition fits the panels exactly.

Approvals Before a Garland Metal Roof Goes On
HOAs are the norm in Firewheel-area subdivisions, while most older central Garland neighborhoods are HOA-free. Where an HOA applies, Texas Property Code 202.011 generally prevents it from banning impact-resistant or energy-efficient roofing that resembles approved materials; the board can still regulate color and appearance. We prepare the architectural submittal with product data and color samples. In every part of Garland, we pull the city permit where required.

Metal Roofing in Garland: Common Questions
Can the low patio roof on my Garland ranch be metal?
Usually, yes, as long as it has some slope. Our mechanical lock panels are rated down to 1/2:12 over a solid deck with high-temperature underlayment, which covers most patio and porch tie-ins on 1960s-80s ranches. The seams are folded closed by a seaming machine, so they resist water backing up far better than shingles do on a shallow pitch.
What will a Firewheel HOA want before approving metal?
Expect the architectural committee to ask for the product name, color and a sample or photo. Stone-coated steel and metal shingles that resemble the approved roofs are the most straightforward approvals. For standing seam, a spec sheet and color chip help the case. We assemble the packet, and work starts once the board signs off and the permit is issued.
Who pulls the permit for a Garland metal reroof?
We do. Permit requirements are set by the City of Garland and can change, so we confirm them for your address when the job is scheduled and pull the permit wherever one is required. If an inspection is part of the process, we coordinate it. Handling the paperwork is part of our job, not a task left to you.
Do you help Garland homeowners with insurance after hail?
After a storm we photograph and measure the damage, note the date, and write up a scope you can hand to your adjuster. Coverage is your carrier’s decision. The deductible is yours to pay under Texas law, and we never absorb it.
