Horace is growing fast, and those new subdivisions off County Road 17 and near the Horace High School are mostly young two-story homes with steep roofs and tight lots. But drive a few blocks off the main roads and you'll still find older farmhouses and a few 1970s ranches sitting on wide lots, plus the machine sheds and shops that come with the agricultural side of town. The flat ground here means water has nowhere to go but down, and that's exactly why ice dams at the eaves are such a headache every February.
We're Fargo Metal Roofing, and we've been up and down Horace's streets enough to know that a metal roof here isn't just about looks. It's about shedding snow before it turns into an ice dam, and standing up to the open-prairie wind that rips across the Red River Valley. If you're in 58047 and you're tired of shoveling or patching, give us a call at (701) 491-7458.
Metal Roofing in Horace (58047)
Horace sits on the dead-flat floor of the Red River Valley, which sounds easy until you deal with drainage. Meltwater from a foot of snow has nowhere to run, so it pools at the eaves and backs up under shingles. That's the number one reason we get called out here in winter. The newer subdivisions also have tight side yards, often less than five feet between houses, so staging materials and getting a ladder set safely takes planning. And because most of these homes are less than twenty years old, the original asphalt shingles are just now hitting the end of their life, which is why metal shingle roofs are popping up all over the newer streets. We handle everything from metal shingle roofing to full standing seam, and we know how to work around the HOA design rules that some of these developments have in place.
Our team has been serving Horace and the surrounding Fargo area for years. We're a Metal Roofing Alliance member, fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation, and we treat every property like it's our own. Whether it's a hail-battered roof on a new build or a leaky barn roof out on the edge of town, we've seen it and fixed it.

How a Job Works in Horace
Step 1: You call us at (701) 491-7458 or fill out a request online. We schedule a free on-site assessment, usually within a few days. We'll walk the roof, check the flashing, fasteners, and valleys, and look at how the snow and water are actually draining. You get a written estimate with options, no pressure and no surprises.
Step 2: Once you approve, we pull the permits. Roofing permits are commonly required for a full replacement in Horace, and thresholds and inspection requirements vary, so we always confirm the current rules with the City of Horace website before we order materials. We also coordinate with your HOA if there's a design review for panel profile or color. On install day, our crew protects your landscaping, stages materials in the driveway or on the street according to the lot, and gets to work. Most residential roofs take two to four days depending on weather and complexity.
Step 3: Cleanup is part of the job. We run magnets over the yard, haul away all old materials, and do a final walkthrough with you. We don't leave until you've seen the finished roof and know exactly what was done.
Pricing in Horace is straightforward. Metal roof installation starts at $8 per square foot, standing seam at $10, metal roof replacement at $9, and a retrofit over existing shingles at $7. Metal shingle roofing and stone-coated steel both start at $9 per square foot, which is popular in the newer subdivisions. Repairs start at $450, leak repairs at $450, and screw replacement or re-fastening at $750. Snow guards and ice protection start at $1,200, and gutters for metal roofs run from $9 per linear foot. The final number depends on roof size, pitch, access, how many layers are already there, and how fast you need it done. Call (701) 491-7458 for a free estimate and we'll give you a real number, not a range that changes later.
