Metal Roofing for Godfrey and Riverbend Homes
Metal roofs last 40 to 70 years, shed snow and hail better than asphalt, and qualify for energy and insurance discounts in Illinois. The upfront cost is 2 to 3x asphalt, but the lifetime cost is often lower because you replace the roof once instead of three times. Trill Roofing installs metal roofing across Godfrey, Alton, Edwardsville, and the rest of the Riverbend. Standing seam panels, metal shingles, and exposed-fastener systems. 24-gauge and 26-gauge steel with Kynar 500 finish on the panels we recommend most often.
Metal Roofing Options for Godfrey Homes
The metal roof category includes several distinct system types. Trill helps homeowners pick the right one for the home, the budget, and the appearance goal.
- Standing seam: The premium metal roof. Vertical seams interlock, fasteners are hidden under the panel, longest service life. Best for modern and traditional homes.
- Metal shingles: Steel or aluminum shingles shaped to resemble asphalt, slate, or wood shake. Good for homes where the homeowner wants metal performance without the standing-seam look.
- Exposed-fastener (R-panel, 5V-crimp): Lower cost, faster install, exposed screws that need re-tightening or replacement at 15-20 years. Common on outbuildings and budget residential.
- Gauge: 24-gauge is standard for premium residential. 26-gauge is acceptable for most homes and prices lower. Lighter gauges (28-29) for budget exposed-fastener.
- Finish: Kynar 500 / PVDF on the top finishes we install (40-year fade warranty). SMP paint systems available for lower cost (30-year typical).
- Color: 20+ standard colors per manufacturer. Cool-roof colors qualify for ENERGY STAR credit.

Great business to work with. My house, garage and studio now have matching shingles on the roof. Guttering was added to the house. Prompt service and fair pricing.

I am very pleased with the total roof replacement and attic vents installation completed last week by Andy’s crew. Andy was reachable and responsive through the entire process! No question was too big or small! His crew had to stay an unplanned … More second day because of the steepness of my roof. There was not an ounce of frustration shown. I am pleased with the workmanship of his crew! They worked non-stop for two days, well into the evenings! At the end, I noticed a couple things to tweak and they did it without question or hesitation. I would highly recommend them!

Trill Roofing went above and beyond on our roof. I have an old house. The roof had been untouched for many years. Much of the sheathing had to be replaced as well as rafters. In a time when it’s hard to get contractors to show up, … More Trill Roofing was on site, working on my roof exactly when they said they would start. They explained the process and answered all of my questions. I learned a lot about roofing systems.
I look forward to working with Trill on my upcoming siding and gutter projects. -
Andy, at Trill Roofing, is awesome to work with. We had storm damage, which insurance denied. Andy went the distance, he took multiple pictures which confirmed the damage, sent them to the insurance, and they finally approved roof replacement. … More None of the other roofing companies did that. They did an awesome job! Very quick and efficient. We highly recommend them.
