Metal Roofing on Lopez Island
Standing-seam & metal systems engineered for salt air and wind. Serving Lopez Village, Fisherman Bay, Mud Bay, Richardson.
San Juan Roofing Co. provides metal roofing for homes across Lopez Island, from Lopez Village, Fisherman Bay, Mud Bay to Richardson. Flatter and more open, Lopez roofs bake in more sun but still face salt air off Fisherman Bay. Metal and long-life shingle systems shine here.
Metal is the roof most San Juan County homeowners should be looking at first. It sheds our 40 inches of annual rain, resists the moss that plagues shaded island roofs, and stands up to the west-side wind that runs about 20% stronger than Anacortes.
Why metal roofing matters on Lopez Island
Open pasture exposure on Lopez means wind uplift on ridges and rakes — we detail edges for it. Salt spray corrodes cheap fasteners and coatings fast. We use the same coastal-rated systems the ferry-town pros trust — not the mainland builder-grade panel.
What our Lopez Island metal roofing includes
- Concealed-fastener standing seam & exposed-fastener panels
- 24-gauge, marine-grade Kynar 500 coatings for salt-zone homes
- Wind-rated clip & fastener schedules for the exposed west side
- Snow guards, ridge venting & matching flashing
- Ideal over living spaces and for rainwater catchment systems
Lopez Island price range
$14,000–$45,000+
Standing-seam metal, installed on a typical island home. Coastal (salt-zone) Kynar 500 coatings and heavier gauge push toward the top of the range.

Real Lopez Island roofing questions
“I'm buying a place on Lopez and my agent wants a roof report before closing. Can you get out there and turn it around fast?”
Yes — real-estate roof reports are something we do a lot of on the islands. We inspect the roof, flashing, and accessible deck, photograph everything, and give you a written report you can hand your agent and lender. We prioritize these so they don't hold up your closing, even on Lopez or the outer islands.
“My place sits out in open pasture and the wind just hammers the ridge and the rake edges. How do you keep a roof from lifting out here?”
Exposed, open sites need a tighter fastening schedule and proper edge-metal detailing — that's where uplift starts. On metal we increase clip density at the perimeter and ridge; on shingles we hand-seal the perimeter courses and use a higher wind-rated product. It's a detailing problem, and it's exactly the kind of exposure we build for here.
