Metal Shingle Roofing in Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio
Metal shingles give Midwest homeowners the best of both worlds: the dimensional look and style variety of traditional roofing materials combined with the durability, weather resistance, and longevity that only metal can deliver. In a region where spring hail, summer microbursts, and freeze-thaw cycling test every material on your home every single year, the performance advantage of metal shingles over standard asphalt is not subtle.
Sherriff Goslin Roofing has been installing metal shingles across Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio since 1906. As a certified Atlas Pro® Diamond Level Contractor, our crews are trained in proper metal shingle installation techniques. Every installation starts with a free, fully documented inspection and a written, itemized estimate, while each finished job is backed by our 10-year free service guarantee on workmanship.
Metal Shingle Styles and Colors
Metal shingles are available in a range of profiles designed to complement any architectural style. Profiles that replicate the dimensional look of asphalt shingles, the textured character of natural slate, and the rustic appeal of wood shake are all available; each delivering the same metal performance underneath a distinctly different finished appearance.
Style and color availability vary by product line. Ask your project manager about current options during your free inspection, or explore the full range in our Roof and Home Design Studio before making any decisions.

How and Why Metal Shingles Can Outperform in the Midwest
What Midwest Homeowners Say About Our Metal Roofs
Thinking About Metal Shingles? Here’s What We Hear Most
Metal shingles are a bigger decision than a standard shingle replacement, and the questions that come with that decision are completely reasonable. We have answered them hundreds of times across Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio. Here are the ones that come up most.
Metal shingles are individual panels engineered to replicate the look of traditional roofing materials — profiles that mimic asphalt, slate, or wood shake — while delivering the core durability and weather resistance of metal. Standing seam is a continuous panel system with raised vertical seams running the length of the roof. It tends toward a more modern, architectural look.
For most residential applications in the Midwest, metal shingles are the more popular choice because they offer design flexibility that fits a wider range of home styles. Your Sherriff Goslin Roofing project manager can walk you through both options during your free inspection.
In many cases, yes, and the ability to install over existing shingles is one of the practical advantages of metal roofing. It reduces tear-off costs, shortens the project timeline, and spares the disruption of a full demo day.
Whether an overlay installation is appropriate for your home depends on a few specific factors:
A Sherriff Goslin Roofing inspection assesses all of these before any recommendation is made. Nothing gets assumed, and nothing gets started until you have a written answer.
This is the question we hear most often, and the short answer is no, not with proper installation. Metal shingles installed over solid sheathing with adequate insulation perform very similarly to asphalt shingles in terms of sound during rain events.
The “loud in the rain” experience is associated with uninsulated metal roofing on agricultural buildings, which is a completely different installation context. A properly installed residential metal shingle roof is not meaningfully louder than what you have now.
Better than most other roofing materials, and there are specific reasons why. Midwest winters are hard on roofing systems in ways that compound over time: heavy snow loads, freeze-thaw cycling, ice dam formation, and sustained moisture exposure all take a toll on standard asphalt shingles, while metal simply does not experience the same issues.
Here is why metal shingles perform well in this climate:
For homeowners who want a roof that handles winter without ongoing worry, metal shingles are one of the strongest options available.
