When Does Corrugated Metal Roofing Make Sense in Hudson?
Corrugated metal roofing makes sense in Hudson for a garage, shed, porch, outbuilding or home where a lower price matters more than hidden fasteners, because it costs less to put on than standing seam.
It is one of several kinds of metal roofing we put on in the Hudson area. The panels are fastened with screws through the face of the sheet, so the screw heads stay on show.
Metal roofs are expected to last 40 to 80 years, so a new corrugated roof replacing a rusted one should be the last roof that building needs for a long time.

Signs Your Hudson Corrugated Roof Needs Replacing
Your Hudson corrugated roof needs replacing when rust has eaten through the panels, leaks keep coming back at the screws, or sheets have loosened or blown off in wind.
Rust Through the Panels
Surface rust can be treated, but once it has eaten holes through the sheet, the panel has to be replaced.
Leaks That Keep Coming Back
Water that returns at the screws after each repair means the fastening across the roof has worn out.
Loose or Lifted Sheets
Sheets that move in the wind pull at their screws and let water in at the laps.
Storm Damage
Western Wisconsin windstorms have torn whole sections off shed and pole barn roofs around Somerset, Hammond and New Richmond.

Corrugated Steel or Aluminum for Your Hudson Roof?
Corrugated steel costs less for a Hudson roof, and aluminum roofing costs more but has no iron in it to rust. Wisconsin figures for a 1,700 sq ft roof with tear-off put basic exposed-fastener steel at $9.35 per square foot and basic aluminum at $12.45.
Corrugated Steel
- Lower price
- About $9.35 per sq ft in basic exposed-fastener steel
- Steel can rust where its coating is scratched or worn
Corrugated Aluminum
- Higher price
- About $12.45 per sq ft in basic aluminum
- No iron in it to rust
If you want steel with a surface that looks more like a shingle roof than bare metal, stone-coated steel roofing is the other way to go.

Can New Corrugated Metal Go Over Your Old Hudson Roof?
New corrugated metal can go over the old roof on a Hudson home only when the old roof is a single layer that is sound and dry. Wisconsin's dwelling code bars a new roof covering over two or more layers of any permanent roofing, over a water-soaked or deteriorated roof, and over wood shake, slate, clay, cement or asbestos-cement tile.
An old tin roof counts as a layer, and so does a layer of shingles under it. We check before we quote a metal roof over shingles, because a roof that has to come off changes the job.
Who Can Put Corrugated Metal on a Hudson Home?
A contractor holding Wisconsin's Dwelling Contractor certification, with a certified Dwelling Contractor Qualifier, can put Corrugated Metal on a Hudson Home, because that is the credential the state requires of anyone who pulls a building permit for work on a one- or two-family home, and Wisconsin has no roofing-specific license. Hudson Roofing Pros does this work, and when you book with us or anyone else, ask for proof of the credential and of insurance.
Ask for proof of that credential and of insurance when you book, and check it in the state's credential lookup. In the City of Hudson, new roofing with no structural changes needs no building permit; outside the city, we confirm the rules with your local building inspector before work starts.
Corrugated Metal Roofing FAQs
Is Corrugated Metal Cheaper Than Standing Seam?
Yes. Wisconsin figures put basic exposed-fastener steel at $9.35 per square foot and basic steel standing seam at $14.40, on a 1,700 sq ft roof with tear-off.
Can You Put Corrugated Metal Over an Old Tin Roof?
Only if the old tin roof is the only layer and it is sound and dry. If there is also a layer of shingles under it, or it has rusted through, it has to come off first.
Can a Rusted Corrugated Roof Be Repaired?
Yes, if the rust is on the surface or limited to a few panels. Once rust has gone through panels across the roof, those panels need replacing.
Will Snow Slide Off a Corrugated Metal Roof?
Yes, snow slides off metal more readily than off shingles. Over doors and walkways, roof snow guards hold it on the roof.
