Metal Barn Roofing

At FS Contracting, our metal roofing for barns provides long-lasting durability and can handle harsh Midwest weather, including heavy snow, rain, and wind. Its strength and rigidity prevent leaks and structural issues, making it ideal for barns storing equipment or livestock. Metal roofs also reflect sunlight, helping barns stay cooler in hot summer months.

Installation is straightforward, and metal roofs require minimal upkeep. They pair naturally with siding and cladding, giving barns a clean, uniform look while reducing the chance of water infiltration. Farmers in Nebraska and Iowa often choose metal for its combination of lifespan, reliability, and low maintenance.

Pole Barn Roofing

Pole barn roofs are a cost-effective and practical choice for our regional farms. They work well for storage buildings, equipment sheds, and livestock barns where simplicity and function matter. Pole construction allows for open interiors without load-bearing walls, giving farmers flexibility for changing storage needs.

We often build them with steeper slopes to shed snow effectively. The durable panels are easy to repair, so you can maintain your barn without high costs, making this style a popular choice for farms seeking affordability and reliable protection.

Steel Barn Roofing

Steel roofing is known for unmatched structural strength, making it ideal for barns exposed to heavy loads or severe weather. It withstands wear, corrosion, and impact, keeping barns safe for years.

Steel panels also improve the energy efficiency of barns by reflecting heat during hot summers and providing insulation during cold winters. This helps maintain a stable environment for livestock, equipment, and stored crops.

Our high quality steel roofing service reduces the frequency of repairs and extends the lifespan of the barn.

Barn Corrugated Roofing 

Corrugated roofing is a practical and cost-effective solution for many barn types. Its wavy design allows water to drain quickly, reducing leaks and protecting equipment, crops, and livestock from moisture damage.

With expert installation from FS Contracting, you can rely on strong, long-lasting protection with minimal upkeep. Panels are simple to repair or replace when needed, making this style a smart choice for farms seeking reliable coverage without excessive costs.

Specialty Barn Roof Materials

In addition to these options, FS Contracting Services also provide other roofing materials on demand, customized to meet specific barn needs or design preferences.

• Red painted panels (barn red metal roofing) – Classic and timeless, these panels offer rust resistance and long-term protection, giving your barn a traditional look while standing up to Midwest weather.
• Aluminum barn roofing – Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, aluminum panels make it easier for you to maintain the roof while keeping it strong in moisture-prone areas.
• Corrugated steel – Durable and versatile, corrugated steel panels provide reliable protection for barns of all sizes, and repairs are simple when needed.
• Standing seam – Premium option with superior durability and weather resistance, ideal for barns that require long-term performance and a clean, high-end finish.
