What Is Metal Shingle Roofing?

Metal shingles are a category of stone-coated steel roofing built to resemble traditional shingles, wood shake, or tile — steel panels coated with stone granules and a protective finish, shaped and installed to mimic the profile of the style they’re replacing.

It’s a different metal-roofing system and appearance from standing seam, which uses raised vertical panels rather than a shingle, shake, or tile profile.

Whether you call it metal shingles, metal roofing shingles, or stone-coated metal roofing, it’s the same general category of product.

Metal Shingle Styles from Tilcor

Heritage’s metal shingle roof replacements use Tilcor stone-coated steel systems. Tilcor’s panels use a concealed-fastening design — the fasteners are hidden within the panel system rather than exposed on the surface, part of the company’s product design across its shingle, shake, and tile lines.

How Heritage Approaches a Metal Shingle Roof Replacement

1

Heritage’s typical process for a metal shingle roof replacement is a full tear-off: removing the existing roofing down to the decking, inspecting the decking itself, and installing the new metal shingle system from there.

2

In some cases, depending on the condition of the existing roof and the specifics of the project, installation over existing asphalt shingles may be appropriate. That’s the exception, not Heritage’s default approach, and it’s something we’ll assess and discuss with you directly.

What Affects the Cost of a Metal Shingle Roof?

Metal shingle roofing costs more upfront than asphalt shingles. The exact price depends on the size and complexity of your roof, the style and color you choose, and whether a full tear-off or an over-asphalt installation applies to your home.

Heritage provides a free, written estimate specific to your project.

Metal Shingles vs. Asphalt

Metal shingle roofing generally carries a higher upfront cost than asphalt shingles, but homeowners may consider it for its metal construction, appearance options, and longer-term ownership goals.

The right choice depends on budget, how long you expect to own the home, the look you prefer, and the specific roofing system being compared. See our metal roof vs. asphalt shingles comparison for more detail.

Metal Shingles vs. Standing Seam

Heritage installs both metal shingle roofing and standing seam metal roofing. They’re different styles within the same metal roofing specialization, not competing recommendations.

Metal shingles are shaped to look like traditional shingles, shake, or tile. Standing seam has a cleaner, more architectural appearance built around raised vertical panels rather than a shingle-style profile.

Neither is universally better. The right choice depends on the look you want, the roof itself, and the specific project.

Choosing a Metal Shingle Roofing Company

A few things are worth asking any contractor before you commit to a metal shingle roof replacement:

AskWhat specific product and manufacturer will be installed?
AskWhat does the estimate include, and is it in writing?
AskWhat’s the actual installation process — tear-off or installation over the existing roof — and why?

A written, itemized estimate and a clear answer to these questions are reasonable things to expect from any roofing company you’re considering.

Metal Shingle Roofing FAQs

What’s the difference between metal shingles and standing seam metal roofing?
Metal shingles are shaped to resemble traditional shingles, shake, or tile, while standing seam uses raised vertical metal panels with concealed fasteners. Both are metal-roofing options Heritage offers. The right choice depends on the appearance you prefer, the roof, and the specific project rather than one system being universally better.
Does Heritage install metal shingles over an existing asphalt roof?
In some cases, depending on the roof’s condition, installation over existing asphalt may be appropriate. Heritage’s standard approach is a full tear-off to the decking. We’ll assess your specific roof and tell you which approach applies.
Does Heritage repair metal shingle roofs?
Heritage’s metal shingle work is focused on full roof replacement, not repair, for this product line.
What styles does Heritage offer?
Heritage installs Tilcor stone-coated steel systems in a traditional shingle style (CF Shingle), a wood-shake style (CF Shake), and a Spanish/Mediterranean tile style (Antica).
What does a metal shingle roof cost?
It depends on your roof’s size, complexity, chosen style, and installation approach. Heritage provides a free, written estimate specific to your project.
