Grimes is a fast-growing town just northwest of Des Moines, where new subdivisions and acreages sit along Highway 141 and around the Grimes Sports Complex. Many homes here are newer builds with architectural shingles, but more and more homeowners are choosing metal roofs for their hail and wind resistance.

If you live in Grimes (50111) and need a metal roof installed, repaired, or replaced, our team at Des Moines Metal Roofing is ready to help. We know the local housing stock and the weather that hits this area, and we'll give you straight answers and honest pricing.

Metal Roofing in Grimes (50111)

Grimes sits on gently rolling terrain with a mix of newer subdivisions and larger acreage lots. The soil here is glacial till and black prairie soil, which can shift with freeze and thaw cycles, so proper flashing and fastening are critical. Many homes have steep gables and complex rooflines that require careful detailing, especially where snow and ice tend to build up. We also see a lot of new construction with low-pitched roofs over garages and porches, where standing seam metal is a smart upgrade for durability.

Our team has worked on homes throughout Grimes and the surrounding Des Moines area, from the neighborhoods near the high school to the acreages off Highway 44. We understand the local building codes and HOA requirements, and we know how to handle the tight lot access in some of the newer subdivisions.

How a Job Works in Grimes

Step 1: Call us at (515) 461-7188 or fill out our online form to schedule a free on-site assessment. We'll inspect your roof, discuss your options, and provide a detailed written estimate.

Step 2: Once you approve the estimate, we'll pull the necessary permits with the City of Grimes and schedule the work. Our crew arrives on time, protects your landscaping, and works efficiently to minimize disruption. For homes in HOA communities, we'll coordinate with your board to ensure the panel profile and color meet the guidelines.

Step 3: After the job is done, we do a thorough cleanup, including magnet sweeping for nails, and walk the property with you to make sure you're satisfied. We leave your yard clean and your roof ready for the next storm.

Metal roofing in Grimes is priced by the square foot, and the final cost depends on the material, roof complexity, and access. For example, corrugated panel roofing starts at $5.50 per square foot, standing seam at $10, and metal shingles at $9. A typical repair starts at $450, and screw replacement starts at $750. Factors like roof pitch, number of penetrations, and whether we're working over existing shingles affect the total. We provide free estimates, so call (515) 461-7188 to get a realistic number for your home.

My house is in one of the newer subdivisions off Highway 141, and the HOA has strict rules about roof colors. Can you help with approval?
Yes. We work with HOAs in Grimes regularly and can provide color samples and product specs for your board's review. We'll make sure the metal roof you choose meets the community guidelines.
A storm just blew through Grimes and I think I have wind damage on my roof. How quickly can you respond?
We offer free storm damage inspections and can often schedule an assessment within a day or two after a storm. Call us at (515) 461-7188 to get on the schedule. We'll document any damage and help you with the insurance claim process.
What does a metal roof cost for a typical ranch home in Grimes?
For a 1,500 to 2,000 square foot ranch, a basic corrugated metal roof might run $8,000 to $12,000, while standing seam could be $15,000 to $25,000. The exact price depends on roof pitch, removal of old shingles, and trim work. We give free estimates.
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Grimes?
Yes, the City of Grimes typically requires a permit for roof replacements. We handle the permit application and inspections for you, so you don't have to worry about the paperwork.
My neighbor's tree overhangs my roof and I'm worried about liability. What should I do?
It's best to talk with your neighbor first. If limbs are damaging your roof, you have the right to trim branches that cross your property line, but check local ordinances first. We can inspect and repair any damage caused by overhanging limbs.
Are you insured for work on my Grimes property?
Yes, we are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.
How often should I have my metal roof inspected in Grimes?
We recommend an inspection every two to three years, especially after major hail or wind storms. Grimes gets its share of severe weather, so catching loose fasteners or damaged panels early can prevent leaks. We offer free inspections.

“Had these guys put a metal roof on our equipment barn out past Altoona and they knocked it out in about three days with a four-man crew. The gravel lot around the building made staging a little tricky but they kept everything organized and cleaned up every screw and scrap before they left. Really solid work.”

“Our front porch roof was leaking every time it rained hard and I was worried it was going to be a huge mess. They found the problem at the flashing by the porch beam, fixed it, and re-fastened a few loose panels in one afternoon. Two weeks of storms since and it's bone dry.”

“We've got a farmhouse and barns surrounded by cornfields, and the old barn roof was rusting through in spots. Des Moines Metal Roofing replaced the panels and re-did the flashing around the vents. They even added snow guards so we don't get sheets of ice sliding off onto the equipment. It's a relief knowing it's done right before winter.”

“Went with standing seam on our house and the finished roof looks incredible, the lines are dead straight and the panels are perfectly aligned. The crew of five finished our 2,400 square foot roof in about four days. Only small gripe is they showed up a bit later than the window on day one, but the quality more than made up for it.”

“I needed a TV antenna mounted on my metal roof and I was nervous about someone putting holes in it. They came out, sealed the mounting points properly and made sure everything was watertight around the new penetrations. No leaks after a month of rain. Really appreciated how careful they were.”

“Brand new metal roof on our place and honestly I was surprised how fast it went, under a week from tear-off to the last ridge piece. They hauled away every bit of the old roof and left the yard cleaner than they found it. My wife and I keep looking up at it and just grinning.”

“Replaced the roof on our brick house with a stone-coated steel system and it completely changed the look of the place, from the street it looks like a high-end tile roof but it's steel. They matched the flashing to the existing brickwork really well and took their time getting the details right. Worth every penny.”

“We did the metal roof over our existing shingles on our suburban house and I'm so glad we didn't have to deal with a full tear-off. The crew was in and out in two days and the new gutters they installed with the metal roof look great too. Only thing is I wish they'd given me a little more notice before starting, but the end result is fantastic.”
