Thus, there are three distinct styles of metal paneling, all with their own advantages and disadvantages. On average metal roofing costs range from $1.50 to $5.50 per square foot for materials alone, and from $4.50 to $11.00 per square foot installed.

Metal Shingles, Shakes, and Tiles
Although, many homeowners are not aware of the existence of metal shingles, it’s a compelling alternative to the traditional composition shingles. All in all, metal shingles cost about double the cost of asphalt shingles installed.
The Cost of Materials for Metal Shingles, Shakes, and Tiles
Metal shingles/tiles and/or metal shakes materials average $3.00 to $4.00 per square foot, or $300 to $400 per square (100 sq. ft.).
Total Cost Installed
Based on that, you can expect to pay about $800 to $900 per square for a metal shingles roof installed. Thus, an average-sized ranch style roof measuring 1,700 square feet or 17 squares will cost anywhere from $13,000 to $16,500 installed, which is roughly twice as much as you would normally pay for an asphalt shingles roof.
