What sets your metal roofing apart?

> Pre-planning, scheduling, and budgeting

> Subcontractor coordination and on-site supervision
> Quality assurance and safety compliance

How long does a typical project take?
Timelines vary based on project scope and complexity. During pre-planning, we provide a detailed schedule and maintain regular communication and progress updates throughout construction.
Are your services insured and compliant?
Yes. Rubarth Builders is fully insured, bondable, and compliant with all safety and regulatory standards, providing peace of mind for every client.
I already have a contractor. Can you still help with a metal roof or accent?
Yes. We regularly work alongside homeowners, builders, and general contractors to supply, fabricate, or install metal roofing and architectural metal components as part of a larger project team.
Do you offer screw-down metal roofing with exposed fasteners?
We focus on concealed-fastener metal roofing and architectural metal systems. However, for projects where an exposed-fastener system is preferred, we can help guide you to the appropriate solution.
I’m on a budget but want the look of a metal roof. Are there alternative options?
Yes. For more cost-conscious projects, we often recommend our trusted partners at Walls Metal Supply, who provide economical metal panel options that can offer the appearance of a metal roof or envelope-style system at a lower cost.
