Shoreline is a city of post-war ramblers and split-levels, many of them built in the 1950s and 1960s with low-pitch roofs that have been fighting moss and rain for decades. Drive through neighborhoods like Richmond Beach or along Aurora Avenue and you will see it: cedar shakes and asphalt shingles dark with algae, holding moisture until the moss lifts the edges.
That is why homeowners in Shoreline (98133) call Seattle Metal Roofing. We have been working on Puget Sound roofs since 2009, and we know how Shoreline's steady rain and shaded lots wear down a roof. Whether you are near Shoreline Community College or over by Paramount Park, we can tell you exactly what your roof is up against.
Metal Roofing in Shoreline (98133)
Shoreline sits on a plateau between Puget Sound and Lake Washington, with plenty of mature Douglas firs and bigleaf maples that drop needles and shade roofs all year. That shade is great in summer but it keeps roofs wet, and in a climate with long gray damp winters, that means moss and algae take hold fast. Many homes here have low-slope roofs over living spaces, and the original ventilation was often inadequate, so moisture gets trapped. We see a lot of failed fasteners and flashing gaps on older ramblers, especially where add-ons and carports meet the main house. Steep driveways and tight side yards are common too, which affects how we stage materials and equipment. Our crews are used to working around landscaping and fences without tearing up your yard.
We have been serving Shoreline and the greater Seattle area since 2009, and we are a Metal Roofing Alliance member. Our team is fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation, so you are covered from the first day on site.

How a Job Works in Shoreline
Step 1: You call us at (425) 648-6332 or fill out our online form, and we schedule a free on-site assessment. We will walk your roof, check the attic if accessible, and look at flashing, vents, and gutters. You get a written estimate with options, including metal roof over shingles (retrofit) if your existing roof qualifies.
Step 2: Once you approve, we handle the permit paperwork with the City of Shoreline and schedule the work. On the day of installation, our crew protects your landscaping, sets up safe access, and removes the old roofing if needed. For retrofits, we install new battens and underlayment over the existing shingles, which saves you disposal costs and time. We keep the site organized and clean up debris daily.
Step 3: After the job is done, we do a final walkthrough with you, checking that all flashing is sealed, gutters are clear, and the site is clean. We do not leave until you are satisfied. We also provide a written warranty and care tips for your new metal roof.
Pricing for metal roofing in Shoreline depends on the size and complexity of your roof, the material you choose, and the condition of the existing roof. As a ballpark, metal roof installation starts at $8 per square foot, standing seam at $10, and metal roof replacement at $9. If you are considering a retrofit over your current shingles, that starts at $7 per square foot. Repairs, including leak fixes, start at $450, and screw replacement or re-fastening starts at $750. We also offer metal roof coating and painting from $2.50 per square foot, which can extend the life of an existing metal roof.
