Greenfield is a city of solid, post-war brick ranches and Cape Cods, most built between 1945 and 1965, with low-pitch roofs that take a beating from southeast Wisconsin winters. You see it all over neighborhoods off South 76th Street and Layton Avenue: shingles curling at the edges, flashing pulling away from chimneys, and ice dams forming at the eaves after a hard freeze. The lots are generous but the houses sit close together, so access and drainage matter more than you'd think.
Homeowners in the 53220 ZIP code call Milwaukee Metal Roofing because we know these roofs. We've worked on the brick ranches near Konkel Park and the Cape Cods off West Howard Avenue, and we understand how lake-effect snow and freeze-thaw cycles stress older roofing.
Metal Roofing in Greenfield (53220)
Greenfield's housing stock is mostly 1940s to 1960s brick ranches and Cape Cods with low-slope roofs, which means water sits longer and ice dams are a real problem. The ground here is generally flat, but mature trees and tight side yards can make it tricky to stage materials or get a ladder where it needs to go. We plan for that. Many of these homes have original or second-layer shingles that are curling and brittle, and flashing around chimneys and vent stacks has often failed. That's why metal roof over shingles (retrofit) is a practical option for many Greenfield homeowners: it saves the cost and mess of a full tear-off and adds a durable layer that handles snow and rain better than aging asphalt.
Our team has been serving Greenfield and the surrounding Milwaukee area for years, and we've seen every quirk these neighborhoods have. From the low-pitch ranches near South 60th Street to the Cape Cods closer to the Milwaukee border, we know what works and what doesn't.

How a Job Works in Greenfield
Step 1: You call us at (414) 219-0818 or fill out our contact form. We schedule a free on-site assessment at your Greenfield property, usually within a couple of days. We inspect your roof, check the attic if accessible, and talk through your options: repair, replacement, or a metal roof over existing shingles. You get a written estimate with clear pricing before any work starts.
Step 2: Once you approve, we pull the necessary permits with the City of Greenfield and schedule the work. For a typical ranch, installation takes one to three days depending on the system. We protect your landscaping and keep the site tidy. If your home is in an HOA, we can provide documentation for approval, and we always respect property lines and neighbor concerns.
Step 3: After installation, we do a thorough cleanup, including a magnet sweep for nails. We walk the roof with you, show you the finished work, and make sure you're satisfied. We don't leave until you're confident in your new roof.
Pricing for metal roofing in Greenfield depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the condition of the existing shingles, and the type of metal you choose. As a ballpark: metal roof over shingles (retrofit) starts at $7 per square foot, metal roof installation starts at $8 per square foot, and standing seam starts at $10 per square foot. Repairs like fixing a leak or replacing flashing start at $450, and screw replacement starts at $750. For a typical 1,200 to 1,500 square foot ranch, a full metal roof replacement often falls in the $9,000 to $15,000 range, but we'll give you an exact quote after inspecting your property.
