Sheet Metal Fabrication
Advanced Sheet Metal Fabrication Capabilities
One of the many ways McKinnis Roofing & Sheet Metal stands apart from other roofing companies serving the Midwest is that we have our own sheet metal fabrication shop. Our ability to fabricate metal components on demand for our remodeling projects provides numerous advantages for our customers. First, we are able to maintain the highest standards of craftsmanship and deliver custom metal components that precisely fit your home or building. Our in-house sheet metal services also allow us to keep projects on schedule. Typically, a contractor will need to order parts from a manufacturer, wait for those parts to be delivered, uncrate the parts, and then assemble them—a process that can take six to 12 weeks or even longer—before they can get to work on the project at hand. You won’t experience these delays with McKinnis Roofing and Sheet Metal on the job. For more information about our sheet metal fabrication capabilities, contact us today. With locations in Blair, Omaha, Lincoln, and Norfolk, Nebraska, we serve homeowners and business owners in nearby cities.
In-House Roofing Sheet Metal Fabrication for a More Precise Finished Product
Metal components may represent only one part of a roofing or exterior project, but their design and fit can have a significant impact on long-term performance. At McKinnis Roofing & Sheet Metal, our roofing sheet metal fabrication capabilities allow us to approach these details with the same attention we bring to the rest of the roofing project.
Because fabrication is handled through our own shop, our team has greater control over measurements, specifications, and workmanship. Instead of trying to adapt a standard component to a unique roofline or building detail, we can fabricate pieces for the specific application. This capability is particularly valuable when working with complex roof designs, older properties, commercial buildings, and projects where standard components may not provide an appropriate fit.
Our more than 40 years of roofing experience also gives us practical insight into how fabricated metal components interact with the rest of a roof. We understand that successful fabrication is not simply about shaping metal. Components need to be designed with drainage, weather exposure, installation requirements, and the surrounding roofing materials in mind.
Architectural Sheet Metal Fabrication for Residential and Commercial Properties
Architectural metal can provide both functional protection and a distinctive finished appearance. Our architectural sheet metal fabrication capabilities give homeowners, business owners, contractors, and property managers access to customized components created for their individual projects.
Depending on the needs of the property, fabricated sheet metal may be used for roof edges, flashing, coping, wall panels, chimney covers, drainage components, and other architectural details. Producing these components to project-specific measurements can help minimize gaps and inconsistencies that may occur when prefabricated pieces must be modified in the field.
Our ANSI ES-1 certified fabrication shop further demonstrates our commitment to professional standards. When you choose McKinnis, you are working with an experienced roofing and sheet metal company that understands the fabrication process as well as the installation conditions these components will encounter.
Custom Sheet Metal Roof Fabrication Built for Midwest Weather
Nebraska properties face changing weather conditions throughout the year, from summer heat and thunderstorms to high winds, hail, snow, and freezing temperatures. Roofing materials and components must be selected and installed with these conditions in mind.
Custom sheet metal roof fabrication allows our team to create metal roofing components according to the dimensions and requirements of the individual structure. For standing seam roofing projects, accurately fabricated panels contribute to a clean appearance while supporting the durability that makes metal roofing an attractive long-term investment.
Metal roofing is also well suited to property owners looking for a material that can withstand demanding weather while requiring relatively little routine maintenance. With professional fabrication and installation, a metal roof can provide decades of dependable performance.
The Benefits of Combining Fabrication and Roofing Expertise
Working with one company for both fabrication and installation can simplify a project considerably. Our roofing professionals and fabrication specialists can coordinate around the same specifications instead of relying on multiple unrelated vendors.
This integrated approach can provide important benefits, including:
- Custom components designed for the dimensions of your property
- Greater quality control throughout fabrication and installation
- Fewer delays associated with sourcing specialty components
- Consistent coordination between the fabrication shop and roofing crews
- Access to experienced professionals who understand roofing and architectural metal applications
Whether your project requires a complete metal roof or specialized components for a larger exterior improvement, we can determine how our roofing sheet metal fabrication capabilities can support your goals.

Custom Metal Fabrication for Roofing Projects
How can you use our sheet metal services to your advantage? Consider a metal roof upgrade if your home or business is due for roof replacement. We can custom manufacture a standing seam metal roof in your choice of color. Metal roofing is one of the strongest and most reliable types of roofing on the market and can last up to 50 years or longer, delivering lasting value for your investment. We can also fabricate gutters to protect the exterior of your property. Our gutters are precisely crafted for a perfect fit and are free of seams. Seamless gutters not only have a more uniform appearance, but they are also less prone to leaking and clogging than prefabricated gutters. Wall panels, coping caps, cupolas, chimney covers, flashing—nearly any metal component your project calls for, we can create at our ANSI ES-1 certified metal fabrication shop.
