Seattle's hills are steep, the firs are tall, and the rain never really stops. From the Craftsman bungalows of Ballard to the Tudors of Mount Baker and the floating homes on Lake Union, every roof here faces the same fight: moss, moisture, and windstorms that send limbs through panels.
Homeowners in 98101 and across the city call Seattle Metal Roofing because we know what Pacific Northwest weather does to a roof. We have been installing, repairing, and replacing metal roofs since 2009, and we have seen every kind of failure this climate can throw at a house.
Metal Roofing in Seattle (98101)
Seattle sits on steep hills between Puget Sound and Lake Washington, under a canopy of Douglas firs, western red cedars, and bigleaf maples. That means shaded roofs grow moss and algae fast, and falling limbs are a real threat in a windstorm. The housing stock ranges from 1900s Craftsman bungalows with deep porches in Wallingford and Ravenna to brick and stucco Tudors in Laurelhurst and Montlake, plus modern infill townhomes with standing seam metal roofs. Many lots are tight, with narrow driveways and steep grades, so access and staging matter. We plan every job around the specific terrain, whether it is a Queen Anne Victorian on a slope or a Lake City rambler with a low-pitch roof.
Our team has been serving Seattle and the surrounding area since 2009. We are a Metal Roofing Alliance member, fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation, and we handle permits and inspections with the City of Seattle. Roofing permits are commonly required for a full replacement or re-roof, and thresholds vary, so always check with the local building department (the City of Seattle website is a good starting point: https://www.seattle.gov).

How a Job Works in Seattle
Step 1: You call us at (425) 648-6332 or request a free estimate online. We schedule an on-site assessment, inspect your roof and attic, and talk through options. We check for active leaks, moss buildup, and flashing issues, and we review any HOA or historic district rules that might affect panel profile or color.
Step 2: Once you approve the scope and price, we pull the required permits and schedule the work. On tight Seattle lots, we plan material delivery and staging carefully, and we protect landscaping and siding. If your home is in a historic district or under HOA design review, we coordinate the approval process before ordering materials.
Step 3: After installation or repair, we clean the site thoroughly, haul away old materials, and walk the roof with you. We make sure you understand the work done and leave your property clean.
