Hollister's downtown Victorians and the ranch properties out toward the hills have a roofing problem that most contractors from the coast don't understand: dry, hot summers and winter storms that hit hard after months of sun. The older homes near San Benito Street and the newer subdivisions off Airline Highway sit on lots that range from tight downtown parcels to wide ranch spreads, and each one needs a roof that can handle both the heat and the occasional heavy rain.
That's why homeowners in 95023 call Salinas Metal Roofing. We know the difference between a stone-coated steel job on a downtown Victorian and a standing seam retrofit on a ranch shop out by the fairgrounds. We're based in Salinas, just up the road, and we've been working on metal roofs across the valley long enough to know what fails here and why.
Metal Roofing in Hollister (95023)
Hollister sits in a bowl of dry hill country, and the roofing challenges follow from that. Downtown, you have Victorian and Craftsman homes with steep pitches and complex valleys, often with original skip sheathing that needs attention before any new metal goes on. Out toward the hills and along the ranch roads, you have low-pitched barns, shops, and packing sheds where corrugated and R-panel roofs take a beating from summer sun and winter wind. The ground here is often expansive clay, which means drainage matters: we grade and flash so water moves away from the foundation, not into it. Access can be tight on downtown lots with mature trees and narrow driveways, and we plan for that before we show up.
Our team has installed and repaired metal roofs on everything from stone-coated steel on a 1920s bungalow near the Hollister United Methodist Church to standing seam on a commercial building off San Felipe Road. We know the local building department's inspection rhythm and what the historic review process looks like for downtown properties. That experience saves you time and surprises.

How a Job Works in Hollister
Step 1: You call us at (831) 484-7891 or request a free estimate online. We schedule an on-site assessment, usually within a couple of days, and we walk the roof with you. We look at the decking, flashing, fasteners, and drainage, and we give you a written scope with pricing before you commit to anything.
Step 2: Once you approve, we pull the permit (most full replacements in Hollister require one) and schedule the work. On downtown jobs, we plan for narrow alley access and parking. On ranch properties, we coordinate around livestock and equipment. We keep the site organized and protect your landscaping. If your home is in a historic district or HOA, we handle the paperwork and color submittals so you don't have to chase approvals.
Step 3: When the job is done, we do a full magnetic sweep for nails, haul away all old material, and walk the roof and gutters with you. We don't leave until you've seen the finished work and we've answered every question. Our crew treats your property like it's our own.
Pricing in Hollister depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the condition of the decking, access, and the material you choose. As a ballpark: 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. Stone-coated steel and metal shingle roofs both start at $9 per square foot, and corrugated or ribbed panel roofing starts at $5.50. Repairs and leak fixes start at $450, screw replacement and re-fastening at $750, and flashing or skylight repairs at $600. Coating and painting starts at $2.50 per square foot. These are starting figures, not final quotes. The best way to get a real number is to call us at (831) 484-7891 for a free estimate. We'll look at your roof and give you a clear, written price with no surprises.
