Metairie Asphalt Shingle Roofs Residential & Commercial

Asphalt Shingle Roofs in Metairie, LA

Metairie Roof Pros provides professional asphalt shingle roofs in Metairie, LA for residential and commercial properties across Jefferson Parish. Almost every roof in Metairie is asphalt shingle, and on the way we work the shingle is the least consequential decision on the job. No roofer enjoys saying it, but the claim holds up the moment you look at where roofs in this parish actually let go.

The covering matters at the wrapper level. We want a laminate carrying the ASTM wind classification your plan needs, installed to the manufacturer's printed instruction rather than to habit, with the fastening line hit dead on. A nail above the reinforced band holds nothing, and a nail driven through the band at an angle by an over-pressured gun is worse than a hand-driven one.

What moves the outcome is everything underneath and around it. The deck attachment, whether the sheathing seams are sealed, whether the drip edge is new twenty-six gauge metal, and whether the starter is a purpose-made self-adhered strip rather than a field shingle turned upside down. The last one is the single most common corner cut in this parish and it costs nothing to do right.

Keep the packaging on site until it is photographed. This is not fussiness. The parish requires the material packaging visible in the photo set with the wind rating noted, and if you ever pursue a designation the evaluator needs a legible shot of the shingle wrapper showing manufacturer, product name, ASTM rating and class, plus the starter strip packaging on its own. Crews who bag the wrappers at lunch create a problem nobody can fix.

Our budget advice, then, runs against our own margin. Buy the mid-range laminate rather than the flagship line, and put the difference into re-nailing the deck and sealing it. A premium shingle on a poorly attached deck is a good product in a bad system. The reverse arrangement outlives it and often costs less. We would rather sell you less shingle and a better roof.

Ventilation gets decided at the same time, because on this coast the vents have to be rated against wind-driven rain and not merely sized for airflow. We cover that on its own page. The short version is that the shingle choice and the vent choice are made together, or the roof gets opened twice. Ask for both decisions on the same page of the quote.

Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, twenty-six gauge galvanized drip edge replaced new on every tear-off, self-adhered starter strip bonded to the eave metal — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Metairie and nearby communities including New Orleans, Kenner, Marrero, LaPlace.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofs

The difference between asphalt shingle roofs that lasts and asphalt shingle roofs that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses, taped sheathing seams beneath a wide-roll underlayment, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.

Every Metairie job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Jefferson Parish means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Metairie Chooses Metairie Roof Pros

  • We wait for the permit to issue before anything comes off, because Act 422 of 2025 made starting early a licensing violation rather than a scheduling shortcut
  • The deck stays open long enough to photograph properly, from above with a tape measure and from inside the attic, so the attachment can be proved later
  • You receive the same file the parish receives, organized by address, so the record survives whichever contractor you use next
  • We quote the plain reroof and the documented FORTIFIED version side by side, with the evaluator's hold points already written into the schedule

Asphalt Shingle Roofs in Metairie: Common Questions

How much does asphalt shingle roofs cost in Metairie, LA?

It comes down to square footage, access, the condition of what is already there, and the materials you choose — geo-tagged photographs of bare roof sheathing, 8D ring-shank deck nails shot against a tape measure, attic-side nail spacing photographs between consecutive trusses. We do not price a job off a phone call and a guess.

We measure on site and hand you an itemized free estimate with the scope written out, so you can compare it line by line against anyone else's number.

How long does a asphalt shingle roofs job take?

Most residential asphalt shingle roofs work in Metairie runs from a single day to about a week once materials are on site. Larger commercial jobs get phased so the property keeps operating. Weather, permit review and material lead times are the usual reasons a date moves, and you hear about those from us before the crew starts, not after.

Do you pull permits and handle inspections in Metairie?

Yes, on any work that needs one. We file with the Metairie building department, schedule the inspection and stay on site for it. Skipping a permit is how property owners end up paying twice — once for the work, and again when it fails at resale or an insurance claim.

Is Metairie Roof Pros licensed and insured?

Louisiana licenses this trade directly, and recently tightened it. Act 422 of the 2025 session created the Residential Roofing classification at La. R.S. 37:2156.4, so that from January 1, 2026 nobody may advertise, bid, quote or perform any portion of a residential roofing system worth seven thousand five hundred dollars or more without holding Residential Roofing or Residential Construction.

Past fifty thousand dollars the undertaking needs a residential license outright; between seven thousand five hundred and fifty thousand a home improvement registration governs. Every one of those is searchable by company name, number or parish on the State Licensing Board's own contractor lookup, and you should search us before you sign anything..

Liability cover and workers' compensation both run on every crew here, and the paperwork reaches your address from the carrier itself rather than forwarded on by us, because a PDF a contractor emails over proves only that he owns a scanner. Ask to see it before the dumpster is delivered..

Coverings go down to the printed instructions the manufacturer enforces its own material warranty against, and where an IBHS FORTIFIED Roof designation is the goal, to the prescriptive requirements the Louisiana Department of Insurance publishes for that standard. Flashing detail follows published National Roofing Contractors Association practice..

Every asphalt shingle roofs job carries a written workmanship warranty over our own labor, issued as its own document apart from any material warranty, handed to you at closeout beside the parish permit record, the four geo-tagged photo sets and any designation paperwork.

Ask any contractor for those four things in writing before you sign — the ones who hesitate are telling you something.

Do you take commercial roofing work as well as residential?

Both. Metairie Roof Pros runs residential asphalt shingle roofs across Metairie neighborhoods and commercial work for offices, retail, restaurants, apartment complexes and HOA properties throughout Jefferson Parish. Commercial jobs get phased scheduling and off-hours crews so tenants and customers are not shut out while the work happens.
