Sheet Metal

Sheet Metal Dallas-Fort Worth

A 4,000 sq ft fabrication shop that makes every piece of metalwork to your roof's exact geometry.

In-house sheet metal — rare in DFW

Most DFW roofing contractors order sheet metal from a supplier. That supplier stocks standard profiles in standard lengths — and every roof gets compromised to fit the inventory. Knox does it differently.

Our 4,000 sq ft sheet metal shop fabricates every flashing, valley, pan, cap, and custom detail to your roof's exact geometry. Owned by Knox, staffed by Knox, supervised by our owner Dakota. It's why architects and custom home builders in DFW work with us on projects where the metalwork matters.

Materials

Metals We Fabricate With

Material choice drives durability, appearance, maintenance, and cost. These are the four metals we work in most — picked for the way they perform in Dallas's climate.

Aluminum

Lightweight, rust-resistant, and cost-effective. The default for gutters and downspouts on most DFW homes — minimal maintenance and the best value when budget matters more than longevity.

Copper

The premium architectural metal. Develops a distinctive patina over decades, lasts 50+ years, and is naturally antimicrobial. Reserved for visible details — chimney caps, valley flashings, and custom roofs where the metalwork is part of the architecture.

Galvanized Steel

Strong and rust-resistant for 20–30 years depending on exposure. The right call for structural pieces and high-stress flashings that take the brunt of DFW weather extremes.

Stainless Steel

Maximum corrosion resistance and institutional-grade durability. Picked when longevity outweighs cost — coastal-exposure jobs, civic and commercial work, and any installation that simply can't be redone.

What the shop gives you

The difference an in-house shop makes

Speed, savings, and quality control most DFW roofers can't match.

  1. 24–48 hr turnaround

    Most contractors wait two to three weeks on a supplier for custom flashing, gutter, or coping. We turn the same parts in 24 to 48 hours — and your project doesn't lose days waiting on someone else's shop.

  2. 30–50% below distributor pricing

    Fabricating in-house cuts out the supplier markup. You pay direct cost on every custom piece — material, time, and our shop overhead. No middleman line item.

  3. Fabrication on-site

    4,000 sq ft shop with brakes, shears, and the tooling to form anything the roof needs — gutters, flashings, chimney caps, standing-seam panels, custom profiles.

  4. Custom profiles

    Matching historic profiles, architect drawings, or manufacturer specs — not just what the supplier carries.

  5. Color matching

    Painted, mill-finish, copper, or galvalume — profile and color tuned to the home's architecture.

  6. Owner-supervised

    Dakota reviews every non-standard piece before it leaves the shop.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is an in-house shop a big deal?

Because every roof is different. Off-the-shelf metal forces compromises on fit — compromises that become leaks over time. Fabricating in-house means no compromises.

Do you work with architects and custom home builders?

Yes — custom home builders are a major segment of our work. We're comfortable reading drawings, specs, and architect details.

Can you fabricate copper?

Yes — copper flashings, valleys, caps, and full copper gutter systems. Copper is one of the main reasons homeowners come to us specifically.

Is this just for premium homes?

No — the shop does regular production work (standard flashings, valleys, drip edges) for every project. The custom work is a capability that's always available.
