We specialize in metal roofing — including standing seam and exposed fastener systems — metal siding and cladding, roof painting, repairs and ongoing maintenance, and under-deck ceiling installations. From new builds to retrofits, every job is handled in-house by our own crews.

We work across Central Ontario and the surrounding region, with regular projects in Barrie, Orillia, Bracebridge, Gravenhurst, Huntsville, Newmarket, Aurora, King City, Innisfil, Washago and the Muskoka cottage country. If you're not sure whether your address is in our service area, just ask — we'll let you know.

A properly installed metal roof from Legacy will last 50 years or more, even with the freeze-thaw cycles, ice loads, and UV exposure typical of Ontario. The panels themselves are rated for 50–70 years, and quality fasteners and underlayments keep the system performing well past the warranty period.

Yes. Metal roofs actually shed snow better than asphalt because the smooth, slick surface lets snow slide off naturally. We engineer every install for the local snow load, and on steeper pitches we add snow guards above doorways, walkways and driveways so snow releases in a controlled way.

It's a common myth. Modern metal roofs are installed over a solid deck with underlayment and attic insulation, which dampens sound to a level comparable to asphalt shingles. Most clients say they hardly notice the difference inside the home.

Every Legacy installation comes with a manufacturer's material warranty (typically 40–50 years on the panel finish) plus our own workmanship warranty on the install. Specifics depend on the system you choose — we walk you through the coverage in plain English before any contract is signed.

In some cases, yes — metal panels can be installed over a single layer of shingles using a strapping system that creates a ventilated air gap. We'll inspect the substrate first; if the deck is sound and code allows, an overlay can save tear-off cost. If not, we'll do a full strip and bring everything up to current code.

Standing seam (concealed fastener) is the premium choice: cleaner lines, no exposed screws, longer service life, and the strongest weather seal. Exposed fastener (sometimes called Ag panel) is more economical and works well on outbuildings, garages, and certain home styles. We'll show you samples of both and quote both if you're undecided.

Considerably. Reflective metal coatings bounce solar radiation away from the home rather than absorbing it like asphalt shingles do, which can cut summer cooling costs by up to 25%. Pair the panels with proper attic ventilation and you'll feel the difference inside.

Yes. A metal roof is one of the few exterior upgrades buyers recognize as a long-term durable asset, and many home inspectors give them top marks. Real estate agents in our service area often highlight a metal roof as a selling feature, and appraisers credit it accordingly.

No more than any other roof. Metal doesn't draw lightning — height and isolation do. If lightning does strike, a metal roof actually performs better than shingles because it disperses the energy and won't ignite. It's one of the safest roofing materials you can have.

Pricing depends on roof size, pitch, the panel system you choose, and any tear-off or substrate work needed. Rather than quote a generic per-square-foot number, we measure the roof, talk through your options in person, and give you a fixed written quote. Most quotes are good for 30 days.
