We’ve spent nearly 50 years building our reputation one roof at a time here in Northeast Ohio, so it means a lot to us when that work gets noticed on a national stage. That’s exactly what happened when Metal Roofing Magazine selected one of our recent installations as its Project of the Month. The feature highlights a luxury new construction home we roofed in Medina County, Ohio, where our crew installed a combination metal roofing system built to last a lifetime. As a family-owned business serving homeowners since 1976, our team at Miller Custom Exteriors couldn’t be prouder to see our craftsmanship recognized by a respected industry publication.
We Earned National Recognition
Metal Roofing Magazine is a respected publication within the roofing and construction industry, and its Project of the Month series spotlights standout installations from across the country. Being chosen for this feature places our work alongside other top-tier contractors recognized for technical skill and design sensibility. Our article, titled “Lifetime Metal Roof: Shingle Panels and Standing Seam Meet Customer Needs in Ohio,” appears in the publication’s June/July 2026 edition. It’s the kind of recognition that reinforces what our local homeowners already know: we deliver roofing work built to a higher standard.
A Luxury New Construction Home in Medina County
This project centers on a luxury new construction home in Medina County, Ohio, along with a matching gazebo that we finished with the same roofing treatment. The builder on this project came to us wanting a lifetime roof that would offer low maintenance and a reasonable cost for the homeowner without sacrificing quality. He was referred to us by the county building inspector, who was already familiar with our reputation and body of work. It’s a strong reminder of how much word of mouth and professional referrals still mean to our business.
How We Combined Shingle Panels and Standing Seam for a Custom Look
One of the most interesting parts of this project was the way we blended two distinct metal roofing styles to meet the homeowner’s needs. On the main home, we installed EDCO Arrowline Enhanced Stone Slate panels, a shingle-style metal roofing product designed to mimic the look of natural slate while offering the durability of steel. On the sections of the roof with steeper pitches, we used Sheffield Metals Gray Standing Seam panels, giving the home a striking, layered aesthetic. We love projects like this because they show off the versatility we can offer homeowners who want a custom look rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.
Built to Last: The Materials and Specs Behind Our Work
The scope of this project reflects the scale and complexity we regularly take on. In total, our team installed 175 squares of roofing across a structure with varying pitches of 10/12 and 5/12, a combination that required careful planning and precise installation. We finished the roofing system with a ridge vent for proper attic ventilation, Certainteed Diamond Deck underlayment for an added layer of protection, and Tite Bond sealant to ensure long-term watertightness. Every material we chose on this job was selected with longevity in mind, which is exactly the point of a lifetime metal roof.
Why This Builder Called Us
Builders and homeowners alike want a roofing partner they can trust with a high-end project, and we’re proud that this feature illustrates why we continue to earn that trust across Northeast Ohio. Referrals from building inspectors, architects, and past clients speak volumes about our reputation in the field. On a project of this scale, with a luxury home and a matching gazebo both requiring flawless execution, there was little room for error. We approached the job with the same attention to detail that has defined our work on roofing, siding, windows, doors, and gutters for nearly 50 years.
Our Legacy of Craftsmanship in Northeast Ohio
Being featured in Metal Roofing Magazine is more than a nice mention to us. It’s a reflection of the decades we’ve spent earning our reputation one roof at a time in communities like Wooster, Canton, and Ashland, Ohio. Whether you’re planning a full metal roof replacement, considering a custom new construction project, or simply want a contractor who understands how to combine style with long-term durability, this feature is proof that Miller Custom Exteriors has the experience to deliver. If you’re in Northeast Ohio dreaming of a roof built to outlast the years ahead, we’d love to be the ones you call.
