What We Offer in Appleton

36 Color Options with 40-Year Kynar Protection – Available in Appleton

Choose from our standard color chart featuring high‑performance finishes backed by a 40‑year Kynar® paint warranty. We also offer color matching and custom two‑tone combos to suit the style of your Appleton home or business — for example, a green standing seam roof with white trim or a medium bronze roof and tan siding. Because we fabricate our own trim and components, you can mix and match from 36 available colors, giving you over 630 unique two-color combinations (if you don’t repeat a color). The 40‑year warranty covers supplied or installed metal roofing sheets and steel corrugated siding panels plus custom-fabricated roofing trim. 

Common fabricated panel colors include, bone white, evergreen, cityscape grey, brown and black

Color Choices That Fit Any Wisconsin Project

Our team works with both residential and commercial roofing clients throughout Appleton and the Fox Valley. When it comes to metal roofing and siding such as standing seam or corrugated, color isn’t just about looks — it’s about long-term value. Our most popular finish, Galvanized, is often chosen because it’s the most affordable option. Since it comes unpainted, it can reduce upfront costs by a few thousand dollars. But it’s worth noting: unpainted galvanized panels typically need to be painted within 10–15 years to maintain weather protection. That adds future labor and materials costs — not to mention the hassle.

In contrast, our painted panels come with a 40-year Kynar® paint warranty, offering long-lasting performance with no need for professional repainting. For most property owners, choosing a color upfront is a smart investment — especially when the cost difference is often less than the price of a future paint job. That’s why shades like Bone White, Evergreen, Mansard Brown, and Cityscape Gray remain top picks for both residential and commercial projects.

Whether you’re going for a bold statement like Colonial Red or a more subtle finish like Slate Gray or Medium Bronze, we offer a wide range of colors to suit your building’s style — without sacrificing durability or value.

Custom sheet metal fabrication for roofing & construction projects in the Appleton, Wisconsin area

In‑House Custom Metal Fabrication - Appleton Wisconsin

 With full in-house fabrication, we take control of quality, speed, and customization. All trim including skylight and chimney flashing, gutters, downspouts, board & batten siding, and similar components are custom‑fabricated in 10‑foot sections for easier handling, precise installs, and consistency. Because we don’t rely on outside suppliers for these parts, we can better manage lead times, avoid shipping damage, and seamlessly match our installations to your project. 

 We recommend 24‑gauge steel as the ideal choice for most roofing and siding projects — it offers superior durability, better resistance to hail, dents, and oil‑canning. We also offer 26‑gauge steel as a more cost‑effective option. Copper panels and trim are available too for those seeking premium aesthetics.

Why Metal Roofing & Siding Is Ideal for Appleton

Metal roofing is one of the most durable and cost-effective choices for Wisconsin homes and businesses. It stands up to Appleton's snow, wind, rain, and temperature swings better than traditional roofing materials. With a properly installed metal roof, you’ll get decades of performance, often lasting 40–70 years with minimal maintenance. We offer professional sheet metal installation for barns, garages, commercial buildings, and homes. It resists cracking, warping, and leaking — and with high-quality coatings like our Kynar® paint system, it retains its color and finish even after years of exposure. Plus, metal reflects solar heat, which can help lower cooling costs in the summer.


Metal siding offers many of the same advantages — plus unique benefits for both residential and commercial buildings. It’s highly resistant to rust, fading, pests, and impact damage, making it ideal for Appleton's varied climate. Unlike vinyl or wood siding, metal won’t warp or rot over time, and it requires little upkeep. With dozens of color options and profiles available, metal siding gives you design flexibility without sacrificing protection. For barns, shops, garages, and even homes, metal siding delivers the weatherproofing and curb appeal that last.
