The Advantages of Metal Roofing
Installing a metal roof on your home comes with numerous benefits, including:
- Safety: Metal roofs are fire resistant and will not spark and ignite into flames during a wildfire or lightning strike.
- Energy Efficiency: Metal roofs reflect solar radiant heat, which can reduce cooling costs by 10-25%.
- Environmentally Friendly: Most metal roofing is made from 25-95% recycled content and is 100% recyclable at the end of its service life.

Prompt attention regarding quote for roof installation. Salesperson was informative and efficient in the quotation process. Roof installation was carried out on time and with precision. I was away for work during the install, but my neighbors … More were very impressed with the professional manner it was carried out. All old roofing materials were removed and when I returned home you could not tell they had been there! (Aside from the new roof) I would recommend Big Rapids Roofing to friends and family.

Our family had an extremely positive experience with Big Rapids Roofing (BRR). We live in Mt Pleasant MI and had avoided replacing our roof for a few years mainly because we thought it was out of reach financially. We eventually asked for … More a quote from a well-known and reliable contractor and ended up signing. A day later, feeling uncomfortable with that decision and wanting to at least explore the possibility of solar shingles, we called Big Rapids Roofing. Gus immediately responded, drove over the next day, and provided 3 quick quotes based on shingle type – the best quality of which was HALF of what we’d agreed to with the other contractor. We decided to cancel that 1st order and felt relieved.Gus communicated exceptionally well and was able to subcontract with Roger’s team out of Grand Rapids. In less than a month, we had a new roof! It’s a relatively steep, large, and complex roof with 19 facets, yet Roger’s Guatemalan team finished in just 2 days! Everyone knew what they were doing; no one just stood around for even a moment.In one minor accident, a stray shingle tore through an awning. Our family was reluctant to report it, but after receiving 2 repair quotes over $1000, we let Gus know. He agreed to fully cover the damaged awning cost without question.We wholeheartedly recommend Big Rapids Roofing to any and all. Despite the price being half of others’, $20k is still a lot and something one must do right the first time. All BRR staff with whom we’ve interacted – Gus, Makayla, Chris, Faith, Zach & Garhett have been amazing and caring.BRR has proven they stand behind their work & we understand GAF stands in support of them!

BRR is A++ at all levels from Nicholas, Project Manager / Sales Representative, David and Lance Skylight Installers, Faith in the office, Gus an active owner, and to the subcontractor roofing installers. It was a very smooth process due … More to their diligence, pride of work, and professionalism. BRR is the company to turn to especially when the need arises to replace skylights. The company is an authorized dealer and installer of highly rated Velux Skylights. Google: Velux Skylights, put in your zip code, and the sole party that shows up is BRR. My project was somewhat unusual since I wanted to replace my discontinued 20-year-old Andersen skylights at the same time reroofing the shingles and related. I learned from the Internet search that various experts recommend to also change "old" (20 years clearly qualifies) skylights when reroofing. A delay only means an eventual old skylight failure, leaks, additional damage, fighting the elements, shingles torn off to replace and the inevitable higher cost!! Since Andersen no longer manufactures skylights, I needed to pursue "Plan B" with BRR / Velux. Essentially, BRR "fit a square peg in a round hole" with a perfect, beautiful, and high-quality replacement. The new ones are more esthetically pleasing and energy efficient than the former ones. I should have started with BRR. Instead, I received the runaround from other roofing companies that claim to replace skylights. The key to skylight replacement is 1). hire trained Velux installers and 2). buy a quality Velux product. Now, I am all set for another extended period time since I know the job was done right the first time.

We completed our new roofing project Oct ‘25. It was a little bit of a slow start in terms of scheduling but once scheduled the process was quick and easy. We are happy with the quality of the work and the cleanup was excellent. There are … More good financing options available.

The staff at Big rapids roofing was very professional and friendly. They were able to explain to me why my roof was leaking and what needs to be done to fix it. They also helped direct us to a place to get a loan with a decent interest … More rate.
