Drive through any Fresno subdivision and you will notice a growing number of sleek standing-seam roofs glinting in the sun. Homeowners are trading shingles for steel because metal easily handles Fresno’s triple-digit summers, sporadic hailstorms, and wildfire embers. When paired with the right underlayment, a metal roof can reflect up to 70 % of solar radiation, reducing attic temperatures by as much as 40 °F.
CountBricks makes the switch simple. With a five-minute voice call, our AI captures your square footage, roof pitch, preferred panel profile, and all required accessories. Seconds later you receive a complete estimate—labor, materials, fasteners, and disposal—optimized for local Fresno suppliers.

CountBricks specifications include high-density underlayment and vented battens that dampen sound. Most occupants report noise levels similar to architectural shingles.
At 1.5 lbs per sq ft, metal roofing is lighter than asphalt. CountBricks engineers still run a quick load check and annotate your estimate with any reinforcement costs.
A typical 2,400 sq ft Fresno home takes four to five working days. CountBricks Gantt timelines keep you updated—perfect for coordinating with painters or solar installers.

When the Ramirez family purchased a 1980s ranch on Willow Avenue, the original three-tab shingles were curling and the attic routinely hit 145 °F. Their goals were clear: cut cooling bills, boost curb appeal, and finish before the first 110 °F day. They contacted CountBricks for a metal Fresno solution.
