24 Gauge McElroy Metal Standing Seam Roof Installation | New James Hardie 6" Fiber Cement Fascia Upgrade









We replaced this Granger home's roof with a 24 gauge standing seam metal system from McElroy Metal. The panels feature a 1.5" rib striated profile that resists oil canning and sheds Central Texas rain fast. Standing seam holds up well against hail and 100-degree summers, making it a smart pick for this area. We finished the job with new James Hardie 6" fascia for a clean, weather-tight edge.

The homeowner reached out to Austin Pro on March 30, 2022, through a customer referral. They wanted a long-lasting roof that could handle Central Texas storms. We moved the lead to prospect the next day, March 31, and started planning the metal roofing options.
We assessed the home's roofline and exposure, common in open Granger lots that take heavy hail and sun. The inspection showed the home was a strong candidate for standing seam metal. We also flagged the existing fascia for replacement to support the new roof edge.
We walked the homeowner through panel choices and settled on a McElroy Metal 24 gauge standing seam panel with a 1.5" rib striated profile. New James Hardie 6" fascia was added to the scope. The project was approved on April 22, 2022.
Our crew completed the install in a focused push on June 1, 2022, pulling materials from McCoy's and ABC Supply Co. We set the standing seam panels with concealed clips for clean, straight lines. New James Hardie fascia was installed around the roofline to finish the edges.
We finished and invoiced the project on June 1, 2022, leaving the homeowner with a durable metal roof and fresh fascia. The standing seam panels are built to handle hail, heavy rain, and 100-degree summers. The job closed out on January 24, 2023.
We installed a 24 gauge standing seam metal roof on a home in Granger, TX, and wrapped the roofline with new James Hardie fascia. The result is a tougher, cleaner roof built for Central Texas weather.
The homeowner came to us through a customer referral, looking for a roof that could outlast the usual asphalt cycle. Granger sits in open country where storms roll through hard. A standing seam metal roof handles that better than most options.
We went with a McElroy Metal 24 gauge standing seam panel in a 1.5" rib striated profile. The 24 gauge steel is thick and stands up to impact. The striated finish helps hide oil canning, so the panels stay clean-looking in flat sun.
Standing seam is a strong fit for Granger's exposed lots. The hidden fasteners mean fewer spots for leaks to start over time.
A metal roof is only as good as its edges, so we installed new James Hardie 6" fascia around the roofline. Fiber cement holds up to heat, moisture, and cedar pollen far better than old wood. It also gives the new roof a clean, finished border.
Wood fascia in this area tends to swell and crack after years of heat and storms. Hardie board avoids that problem.
The project was approved April 22, 2022, and we completed the install in a focused push on June 1, 2022. Our crew pulled materials from McCoy's and ABC Supply Co. to keep the job moving. Standing seam work takes precision, and the team kept the panel lines straight and tight.
The homeowner ended up with a metal roof built to last decades, not years. The standing seam panels shed water fast and stand up to hail. The new fascia ties it all together with a clean, durable edge.
A 24 gauge standing seam roof like this one can last 40 to 50 years with proper care. The hidden fasteners and thick steel hold up well against hail and heat.
Yes, especially on open lots that take the full brunt of storms. Metal sheds rain fast, resists hail, and reflects summer heat better than asphalt shingles.
This project landed in the $30k to $40k range. Final pricing depends on roof size, pitch, and added work like new fascia.
Old wood fascia often rots or warps after years of Texas heat and moisture. New James Hardie fiber cement fascia gives the roof edge a solid, weather-tight finish.
