Lorena is the kind of town where the lots are big enough for a shop and the live oaks drop limbs on the roof every spring. Most of the homes here are brick ranches and two-story builds from the 1990s and 2000s, with newer neighborhoods filling in along Old Lorena Road and Highway 84. If you live near Lorena High School or down by the Middle Bosque, you already know the sun and hail do a number on a shingle roof.
That's why more folks in 76655 are calling Waco Metal Roofing. We're just up the road in Waco, we know the Blackland Prairie wind that comes across these open fields, and we've replaced enough hail-battered shingle roofs here to know exactly what holds up. When your neighbor's new metal shingle roof still looks new after a decade, that's the call you make.
Metal Roofing in Lorena (76655)
Lorena sits where the Blackland Prairie rolls into the Bosque River bottom, and that matters for your roof. The soil here shifts with our wet springs and dry summers, which can throw off flashing and cause gaps at chimneys and skylights. Lots are generous, but many older homes have mature pecan and cedar elm trees close enough to drop limbs and fill valleys with debris. The intense Central Texas sun bakes asphalt shingles until they crack, and spring supercells bring hail that dents and bruises them. A metal roof handles all of it: it sheds the sun's heat, resists hail impact, and won't rot or blow off in straight-line winds like the ones that roll through McLennan County.
Our team has worked on everything from metal shingle roofs on Lorena's growing neighborhoods to standing seam on new farmhouse builds out toward the river. We're a Metal Roofing Alliance Member, fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation, and we treat every Lorena property like it's in our own backyard.

How a Job Works in Lorena
Step 1: You call (254) 384-8413 or fill out our form, and we set up a free on-site assessment. We'll walk your roof, check the decking and flashing, and talk through whether a repair, a replacement, or a metal roof over your existing shingles makes sense. You get a written estimate before any work starts.
Step 2: Once you approve, we pull the roofing permit with the City of Lorena (rules vary, so we always confirm current requirements with the local building department) and schedule your crew. On tighter lots near the older part of town, we plan material drops carefully so we don't block your driveway or a neighbor's. If you're in an HOA, we'll help you submit the panel profile and color for approval before we order materials.
Step 3: We finish with a full cleanup, magnet sweep for nails, and a walkthrough with you. We don't leave until you've seen the finished roof and know how to reach us if anything comes up.
Pricing in Lorena depends on the size and pitch of your roof, how many layers are already there, and how easy it is to access. As a ballpark, metal roof installation starts around $8 per square foot, standing seam around $10, metal roof replacement around $9, and a metal roof over shingles (retrofit) around $7. Metal shingle and stone-coated steel both start around $9 per square foot. Smaller jobs like a metal roof repair or leak repair start at $450, screw replacement and re-fastening at $750, and flashing or chimney repair at $600. We give free estimates, so call (254) 384-8413 and we'll put real numbers on your specific roof.
