Roofing Wholesaler needed
I plan to order Metro Roof Products (CA) and need a Roofing Wholesaler.
Has anyone used Metal Roofing Wholesalers from Louisville KN or have another suggestion from personal experience? Metal Roofing Wholesalers sells all styles of metal roofs to the public nationwide Thanks. John

The contractor should be able to get this.
If he's not licenced...beware. If it's a DIY, plan and then plan first. Permits and inspections will still be required.

Thanks,
It is a DIY and reroof. $10K plus to an unfamiliar distributer makes me cautious. John

Glad to help and hope my friend gave you some ideas. He flies with me but his "day job" is roofing here in the valley. Has done it for more or less 20 years.

Metro Roof has a wholesale dist in Placentia CA. A lot closer. Find out if the product drops ships from the factory or out of standing inventory. Get SI as close to home as possible. I could not find a WD in AZ. There may be some closer to the state border like Needles. You will need extra tiles.
A roof purchase is a contract if you have them deliver. In fact, they will want a materials release. Everything should add up AFA price, product line and quantity right there at the truck. Otherwise, refuse the load. Note damage, any damage. You can even pay under protest noting damage. Let me know how this goes. Some cities are not allowing formed metal tile roofs. |

Hi milt,
The distributer in Placentia, CA is RAM Metal Roof Mart. This was the company I wanted to buy from. On the Metro site, RAM was the only distributer listed. They declined. I have completed the materials list with the official form provided by Metro. I will have another distributer shortly. I will look into restrictions on metal roof shingles. My home is in the county but discussing my choice with agents, no one has mentioned any. Thanks for the info. John
