Carencro is where wide lots, live oaks, and a mix of older ranches and newer builds meet the flat prairie just north of Lafayette. If your shingle roof has been through a few too many hurricane seasons, you are not alone.
Homeowners in the 70520 ZIP code call Lafayette Metal Roofing because we know how this area's humidity, wind, and afternoon downpours treat a roof. From the streets near Carencro High School to the newer subdivisions off I-10, we have seen what works and what does not.
Metal Roofing in Carencro (70520)
Carencro sits on heavy clay soil that holds water after a storm, and many lots here are large enough to have mature oaks and pecans dropping limbs and debris on roofs. Older ranches often have low-slope shingle roofs that are past their prime, while newer homes may have architectural shingles that still take a beating from UV and wind-driven rain. The flat terrain means drainage relies on gutters and grading, and we often find that a metal roof replacement is the right time to upgrade gutters and downspouts so water moves away from the slab. Access is usually straightforward, but some properties have long driveways or tight side yards that require careful staging of materials.
Our team has worked across Lafayette and the surrounding areas, including Carencro, Scott, and Broussard. We understand the local building stock and the storm patterns that drive roof decisions here.

How a Job Works in Carencro
Step 1: You call us at (337) 294-0108 or request a free estimate online. We schedule a time to inspect your roof, discuss your options, and provide a written estimate. We will point out any issues we see and answer your questions about metal roofing systems, colors, and timelines.
Step 2: Once you approve the estimate, we handle the permitting paperwork with the city or parish as required. We order materials and schedule your installation. On installation day, our crew protects your landscaping, removes the old roofing (or prepares it for a retrofit if you qualify), and installs your new metal roof according to manufacturer specs and local code. We keep the site organized and clean up debris daily.
Step 3: After the work is complete, we walk the property with you to review the installation, test gutters, and make sure everything meets your expectations. We haul away all old materials and leave your yard clean. We do not consider the job done until you are satisfied.
Pricing for metal roofing in Carencro depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the material you choose, and the condition of the existing roof. As a ballpark, metal roof installation starts around $8 per square foot, standing seam from $10, and metal roof replacement from $9. If you are considering a retrofit over existing shingles, that starts at $7 per square foot, but code limits how many layers you can cover. Repairs like leak fixes start at $450, and screw replacement or re-fastening starts at $750. Gutters for metal roofs start at $9 per linear foot. We provide free estimates so you can get a clear picture for your specific home. Call (337) 294-0108 to schedule yours.
