Metal is all we do

A roof is no place for a sales pitch.

Gunnar Tolverud spent eight years roofing pole barns and machine sheds east of the Hills before putting his first standing seam roof on a Hill City house. Tolverud Metal Roofing has been metal-only since 2011.

“We would rather spend an hour answering questions than sell you the wrong panel.”

Out here the weather takes a swing at your roof every summer and buries it every winter. A metal roof is the last roof most customers will ever buy.

How a job runs

Clear from measure to clean-up.

  1. Free roof measure

    We use a ladder and drone to understand the roof from every angle.

  2. Written estimate

    Within three business days, you get a clear estimate, including both panel types when both fit.

  3. Color selection

    Use the shop sample wall or borrow 12-inch panels for a week.

  4. Build day

    Panels are rolled to length on site, then we tear off or strap, underlay, panel, and trim.

  5. Final walk-through

    We magnet-sweep the yard and leave you photos of every edge and pipe.
