Hurricane-Ready
Engineered and rated for 140+ mph winds — built for the storms that come with life on the South Carolina coast.
Lowcountry Metal Roofing
Durable Metal Roofing for the Lowcountry
Standing-seam, corrugated, and metal shingle, tile, shake and slate roofing — six styles engineered for the South Carolina coast to shrug off hurricane-force winds, salt air and decades of relentless summer sun.
What we do
Metal Roofing Services
A metal roof is the longest-lasting, most storm-resistant roofing system you can put on a Lowcountry home or commercial building. We install standing-seam metal roofs — the premium choice, with raised vertical ribs and fully concealed fasteners that hand-formed flashing seals tight against wind-driven coastal rain — as well as corrugated and ribbed panels, a more economical exposed-fastener option — plus metal shingle, tile, shake and slate profiles that capture the look of traditional materials with the durability of metal. Whether you are roofing a marshfront residence in Bluffton or a warehouse in Hardeeville, we match the right profile to the building and your budget.
Metal earns its keep on the coast. A properly installed metal roof carries a 40–70 year lifespan — two to three times that of asphalt shingles — and is rated to withstand the hurricane-force winds that periodically sweep the South Carolina coast. The reflective finish bounces solar heat away instead of soaking it up, lowering summer cooling costs, and the material is fire resistant and virtually maintenance-free: no cracking, warping, curling or rot. Once it is on, you stop thinking about your roof.
We work in the full range of metal roofing materials — Galvalume steel for the best balance of strength and value, lightweight aluminum that will not corrode in salt air, and architectural-grade copper and zinc for homeowners who want a roof that becomes more beautiful with age. Every system is installed over an inspected, repaired deck with high-temperature underlayment, and finished with the manufacturer warranty registered in your name.
Why choose us
Why Homeowners Choose JJ Roofing
40–70 Year Lifespan
A metal roof outlasts asphalt shingles two to three times over, so it is very likely the last roof your home will ever need.
Energy Efficient
Reflective metal finishes bounce solar heat away instead of absorbing it, cutting summer cooling costs year after year.
Low Maintenance
Fire resistant and built to last — no cracking, warping, curling or rot, and almost nothing to maintain once installed.
Styles we install
Our Metal Roofing Styles
From premium standing-seam to economical corrugated — plus metal shingle, tile, shake and slate profiles. Whatever the look, we install it as a complete, coast-ready metal system.
Standing Seam
Vertical panels locked together with raised, interlocking seams and fully concealed fasteners — the premium, modern metal system. With no exposed screws to back out or leak, it delivers the best weather seal available and a clean architectural line, carrying a 40–70 year lifespan even in hurricane-prone coastal conditions.
- Concealed fasteners — no exposed screws
- Superior wind & weather resistance
- Sleek, contemporary profile
- 40–70 year lifespan
Metal Shingle
Metal panels stamped and finished to replicate the look of traditional asphalt shingles, so you get the strength and longevity of metal with a familiar, classic roofline. Lightweight and offered in a wide range of colors, they suit homeowners who want metal performance without changing the character of the home.
- Classic shingle appearance
- Lightweight on the structure
- Wide range of colors
- Metal durability & lifespan
Metal Tile
Metal panels shaped to mimic clay or concrete barrel tile at a fraction of the weight of the real thing. They will not crack, break or absorb water, which makes them an excellent, low-maintenance fit for Mediterranean and Spanish-style homes — and for the heat, humidity and salt air of coastal properties.
- Look of clay / concrete tile
- Far lighter than real tile
- Won't crack or break
- Ideal for coastal weather
Metal Shake
Metal panels that capture the deep, rustic texture of natural wood shake — without the downsides of real wood. They are fire-resistant and immune to rot, warping and insect damage, keeping that craftsman character intact for decades, which makes them a natural fit for wooded lots.
- Rustic wood-shake look
- Fire-resistant
- No rot, warping or insects
- Great for craftsman homes
Metal Slate
Metal panels engineered to reproduce the refined look of natural slate while weighing a fraction as much. There is no chipping or flaking over time, and the lighter load means most homes can carry it without added structural reinforcement — the upscale slate aesthetic without the weight or the cost.
- Natural slate appearance
- Dramatically lighter than slate
- No chipping or flaking
- Lower structural requirements
Corrugated
Classic ribbed, wavy metal panels — the most economical way to put a metal roof over a building. They install quickly, carry a decades-long track record, and their profile promotes excellent airflow, making them a smart choice for workshops, agricultural buildings and budget-minded residential projects.
- Most economical metal option
- Fast installation
- Proven, long-lasting durability
- Excellent ventilation

Frequently Asked Questions
A properly installed metal roof lasts 40 to 70 years — two to three times longer than asphalt shingles. On the coast, lifespan depends on the metal you choose: aluminum and Galvalume both resist salt-air corrosion exceptionally well.
Standing-seam is the premium option: raised vertical ribs with hidden fasteners for a clean look and the best weather seal. Corrugated and ribbed panels use exposed fasteners and cost less, making them a popular choice for outbuildings, barns and commercial roofs. Beyond these two, we also install metal shingle, tile, shake and slate profiles that mimic traditional materials while keeping the durability of metal.
Yes. Our metal systems are engineered and rated for 140+ mph winds, and standing-seam panels with concealed fasteners are among the most wind-resistant roofs available — a major reason coastal homeowners choose metal.
No. Installed over a solid deck with underlayment, a modern metal roof is no louder than any other roofing system. The drumming people remember is from bare metal over open framing, which is not how we install residential roofs.
