Advanced Metal Roofing Named in Top Metal Roofing Companies Nationwide by Metal Construction News

2011-07-26T10:00:00.011-04:00

Advanced Metal Roofing is named as one of the top largest metal roofing companies in the nation for 2011 by Metal Construction News, a leading authority in the metal building industry. This is the fourth consecutive year that Advanced Metal Roofing has made the list of Top Metal Roofers.

Wilmington, N.C. July 26, 2011 - James P. Kenton, owner and CEO of Advanced Metal Roofing, is pleased to announce that for the fourth consecutive year Advanced Metal Roofing has been named by Metal Construction News as one of the largest metal roofing firms in the nation. The July 2011 issue of Metal Construction News lists Advanced Metal Roofing as the second largest metal roofer by square footage installed, the same position it held in 2010.

Advanced Metal Roofing is a leading residential metal roofing company currently serving homeowners in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Massachusetts with expert metal roof product and installation. They are the exclusive dealers for the patented MetalMan Roofing System® featuring Galvalume Steel and Kynar 500 Paint Finish. These features ensure durability, long life expectancy, vibrant and long lasting metal roof colors, as well as significant energy savings. In addition, every roof comes with a limited Lifetime Warranty. Advanced Metal Roofing takes great pride in their product, service, and expertise in the field of metal roofing.

Metal Construction News is an authority in the metal building industry, publishing news related to businesses, products, and strategies in the metal construction field. According to their website, they are "devoted to educating building systems contractors, general contractors, suppliers, manufacturers and more..." Each year, Metal Construction News publishes results of the Top Metal Roofers based on square footage and tonnage installed. Advanced Metal Roofing has made that list for the past four years.

Mr. Kenton attributes his company’s continuing success to the demonstrated quality of its products, namely the MetalMan Roofing System®, and Advanced Metal Roofing’s emphasis on superior workmanship and customer service. "The MetalMan Roofing System offers advantages to homeowners," comments Mr. Kenton, "including the cool roof technology that helps lower home energy costs during peak seasons and the Kynar 500 finish that helps preserve and maintain the vivid roof colors over a long period of time."

Metal Construction News conducted a survey of the 2011 Top Metal Roofers to determine how they've been able to thrive in a struggling economy (see: http://www.metalconstructionnews.com/articles/magazine-features/the-2011-top-metal-roofers.aspx). Many of the roofing companies, including Advanced Metal Roofing, have experienced success because they focus on retrofit work, or re-roofing on existing homes and buildings, while the new construction market has been slow to recover. Retrofit work makes sense to homeowners because the return on investment (ROI) with a metal roof is strong given the long life expectancy, low maintenance, durability, and energy savings. It is a smart, sound home improvement investment that eliminates the need for further re-roofing for 50 years or more.

Annual List of Specialty Exterior Contractors Includes Advanced Metal Roofing in 2009

2010-01-22T10:00:00.000-05:00

James Kenton and Advanced Metal Roofing announce their inclusion in Qualified Remodeler's 2009 Exterior 200, an exclusive list of specialty contractors who concentrate on selling and installing very specific and related products that pertain to the exterior of the home.

Wilmington, N.C., December 2009 - James Kenton and Advanced Metal Roofing are pleased to announce that the company has been included in Qualified Remodeler Magazine's Exterior 200 list for 2009. Advanced Metal Roofing ranks number sixty-five on the list of 200 exterior contractors specializing in remodeling and home improvement projects ranging from roofing, siding, and windows to decks, sunrooms, and other items pertaining to the exterior of the home nationwide.

Advanced Metal Roofing specializes in residential metal roofing throughout a growing service area that currently includes North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. Featuring the exclusive, patented MetalMan Roofing System, Advanced Metal Roofing offers homeowners:

The MetalMan Roofing System is constructed from Galvalume sheet metal and Kynar paint finish, resulting in a long lasting, durable metal roof with energy efficient Cool Metal Roofing Technology that is both environmentally friendly and consumer friendly.
Qualified Remodeler Magazine's Exterior 200 list differs from their Top 500 list by way of focusing only on exterior remodelers. Many of these firms, including Advanced Metal Roofing, were included on the earlier published list of the Top 500 Remodelers. A distinction is made because exterior remodelers market differently than contractors who remodel kitchens, add extensions to a home, or renovate whole houses. Exterior contractors also tend to do a greater number of jobs at a lower dollar volume for each job compared to interior remodelers. Therefore, exterior contractors rely on volume to drive business and a have a different business model than an interior contractor. The Exterior 200 list recognizes these distinctions and provides a more even basis of comparison for these contractors. Firms on the list are ranked by remodeling dollar volume.

James Kenton, owner of Advanced Metal Roofing, is proud to be included on this list of nationwide exterior remodeling companies for the third time since 2007. "We've managed to grow over the years and move our way up on the list of the nation's Top 200 Exterior Remodelers. In 2007, we were #169 and in 2008, we were #117. We're thrilled to make the jump to #65 this year. It reflects the hard work we've dedicated to growing our existing service area, to providing a top quality product, and to educating our sales, customer service, and installation teams to deliver the best service possible."

Advanced Metal Roofing has achieved a number of accolades in 2009 including a place in Replacement Contractor's Top 100, Qualified Remodeler's Top 500, Roofing Contractor's Top 100, Metal Construction News' Top Metal Roofers, and Remodeler Magazine's list of the biggest home improvement companies in the country.

The Replacement 100 list is a compilation of the top home improvement companies in the United States, ranked by volume of replacement products sold and includes roofing, windows, doors, siding, decking, patios, and sunrooms.

Advanced Metal Roofing has had a banner year in terms of volume sold of their exclusive, patented product, the MetalMan Roofing System.

Advanced Metal Roofing owner James Kenton acknowledges that, while the failing credit market affected their ability to close as many sales as they would have liked, they have been able to generate more leads through advertising in print, television, and online as well as through representation at local events and community benefits to help drive sales to their expanded company network. "We are so excited about the recognition we've received from leading resources in the contracting industry this year," Kenton says.

Metal Roofing Customer Testimonal from Raleigh NC

2010-01-13T11:50:00.001-05:00

James Kenton and Advanced Metal Roofing have received innumerable customer testimonials and glowing reviews since starting the business in 1994. Here are a few excerpts from recent customers. You can read more reviews on our Advanced Metal Roofing Reviews webpage.

November 8, 2009

Less than a month ago I decided it was time for a new roof. In that period of time I met with Doug, decided on a metal roof, chose a color and had it installed and inspected. Wow! What a painless and worry free experience!

Doug took the time to explain the advantages of Advanced Metal Roofing. I was impressed with the Lifetime Warantee, the hurricane resistance and energy savings. He explained the procedure, financing options and answered any questions I had. It was a very satisfying sales experience.

Approximately two weeks later I received a call saying that the materials would be delivered. It was placed in the area I had designated.

Three days later I received a call saying that they would begin installation the following day. When I arrived home from work that afternoon the front of the roof was almost complete! Two days later the job was done! Each day the site was left neat and clean. The installers were polite and busy. A neighbor commented "Boy, those guys really hustled!"

The weekend after the installation I was out working in my yard and several neighbors commented on how nice the new roof looked.

The two inspections are now complete and I am completely satisfied.

Thank you for the great service - something we don't seem to get too much anymore!

I had gotten many different estimates to replace my roof, including a shingle estimate and estimates from Progressive Metal Roofing and Atlantic Metal Roofing but we couldn’t agree on a price. So my mother referred your company, having had you install her roof years ago. I arranged an appointment for 9/9/09.

Your sales representative, David Medlin, came to my home and took measurements and explained the various advantages of your product and the improvements that had occurred in the roof since my mother’s roof was installed like a new, superior material and edge coating, a patented design, 42% energy savings pledge and a lifetime warranty. I was impressed with David’s presentation and we came to an agreement on the price and signed a contract. On Saturday, September 19th, I got a call from the crew saying they were coming to install the roof. They began that Saturday morning and finished by Saturday night. The crew were very professional and did a great job of keeping the surrounding area clean. I was impressed that they not only worked on a Saturday but managed to finish the job on the same day they began, something unheard of in this city.

A few days passed and the inspector came for the final inspection which was passed with no problems. You’re looking at one satisfied customer and all I have to say is that people should kick all the other metal roofing companies to the curb! A big thank you to everyone involved.

Yours truly,

The installation of my roof was completed this afternoon, October 29, 2009 and I want you to know how pleased I am about the way the entire process was carried out. From the first contact, everyone at Advanced Metal Roofing was very helpful and polite. Mr. Horrel explained everything very clearly when he came out to give an estimate on the cost and the process of how everything worked.

I was called before your inspector came out and every time after when anyone from your company was coming out. I am very impressed with the speed with which the whole roofing process was accomplished. I was treated with respect and everything was completely in a timely matter and very professional.

I am thrilled with the end result and would recommend your company to anyone. I have already received compliments on how beautiful the roof is and how everything was cleaned up after the process was completed. Once again, thank you for my beautiful roof and peace and piece of mind knowing you stand behind your work. Congratulations on the type of people you have working for you. Job well done!

We were looking for a metal roof to go on our horne and so I went online on a Sunday afternoon. Before two hours went by someone from Advanced Metal Roofing had called me and set up an appointment for a salesman to come and talk with us. Mike came and he was very knowledgeable about the product and really
helped us understand the product. We signed a contract that evening but a few days later we really were concerned about having a 7 year loan at our age, which is 60 and 61. Matt stepped in and helped us with the financing and made it more comfortable for us.

In a couple of weeks the crew came to install the roof. They were so courteous and respectful even in the hot weather and trying to dodge the rain. They were able to answer any questions we had about the installation of the roof. They were very professional and never left any materials on the ground when they left the job site. Thank you Kevin for the wonderful job.

We now have a beautiful metal roof that will outlast our lifetime. I look forward to seeing how much energy it will save us and how maintenance free it will be. Thank you Advanced Metal Roofing for answering our call for help.

Here are some of the highlights:

January 29, 2009
We just want to let you know how pleased we are with our new Advanced Metal Roof. It makes our home look like a new house. I have seen people stop in the middle of the culdesac and really give it a once over. I have seen a few of them write down the phone number from the sign in our yard. I am planning on getting new gutters and redoing the landscaping in the front of our home. In my opinion, we will have the prettiest house in our subdivision. You don't know how pleased I am I made the phone call to the number on the television commercial. The representative that came to our house, Bruce Piercy, felt like a family in no time at all. Anyone who came out, from the inspector to installers and/or the merchandise delivery man, was so friendly and nice, I felt at ease through the entire process. What really impressed me was, the day after the job was finished, I heard someone on the roof. I went outside and a man from your company was looking everything over. When I asked what he was doing, he said, "I'm making sure this roof looks like I would want it to look if it were on my house." Very impressive.
Again, we are so pleased. I'm not sure these words have expressed our satisfaction. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Yvonne Wilson

When my husband could no longer climb on the roof to keep it clean, we decided it was time for a maintenance- free roof, if there was such a thing. Well there was, and it happened to be metal and beautiful. We called Advanced Metal Roofing.
They came out, explained their product, showed us beautiful colors, told us about the guarantee, and we were sold.
Then, the unexpected happened.They did exactly what they told us they would do. Advanced Metal Roofing put the roof on in a timely manner, and the workmanship is beautiful. They cleaned up the area, and came back to check on it. They have followed up with calls to make sure we are totally satisfied. We are! The staff, from beginning to end, have been top quality.
We love our new roof, and rest easy knowing it will never have to be replaced.
Thanks Advanced Metal Roofing!

AJ and I love our roof, and the peace of mind that comes with doing business with AMR. We know that should a roofing situation arise, AMR is only a phone call away. With the recent rainfall, AJ and I were confident that we had invested in a product and a company that would remain a strong partner. Working with AMR was a great decision. We were impressed by AMR's team approach in assisting customers, and especially the workmanship and professionalism of the installation team.

New Metal Roofing Testimonial

2008-09-29T11:02:00.002-04:00

The latest testimonial for Advanced Metal Roofing is from Gabrielle Martin in Cary, NC who loved the look of her neighbor's new red metal roof so much, she wanted one for her own house. When her roof started leaking soon after that, she and her husband met with an Advanced Metal Roofing expert sales team and were impressed with the quality of the roofing product and the selection of colors that would complement her home. The installation went smoothly and did not interrupt their daily life and they are very happy with the look and performance of the final product.

Thank you so much for your testimonial, Gabrielle. We really appreciate hearing from another happy customer!
