Question: how much would it cost to install a metal roof?
Answer: It will cost around $9 to $12 per sq. foot installed for a standing seam metal roof. For example, if you have 1,500 square feet, the average cost of installation is $8 per square foot - it will cost you $12,000 to install the metal roof. There are low-end shingles that can be installed on top of the old roof.
