About Finger Lakes Metal
When You're Seeking a Partner, not Just a Vendor
Our Approach
Finger Lakes Metal was born from the job site. Our founder, Kevin Martin, started this journey within the construction industry, experiencing firsthand the frustration of unreliable supply chains and inconsistent fabrication. In 2020, we made a strategic decision: we didn't just want to be another metal shop. We set out to become the Regional Authority in certified precision. We recognized that to serve the modern contractor, we had to move beyond friendliness aand invest in a unified, digitized workflow. While we have shifted our primary focus to the manufacturing side of the industry, we continue to provide specialized installation services to guarantee our systems are executed with technical certainty. Today, we focus our energy on being the premier source for the Finger Lakes Region's highest-tier metal roofing, siding, and trim.
Why can you trust Finger Lakes Metal with your reputation? Because we’ve replaced best guesses with Engineered Certainty. While other shops still rely on paper tickets and memory, we’ve digitized our entire facility. This means your order isn't just a pile of metal; it’s a precision-manufactured system that has been barcoded, tracked, and verified through our strict 12-Point Quality Audit. We invested in this technology so you never have to waste a day fixing a supplier’s mistake. When we get it right, you get paid.
Mission
We give contractors the certainty they need to grow. By using data-driven manufacturing and a 12-point quality check on every order, we eliminate the errors that stall your crews. We turn quality into a guarantee, so you can bid bigger jobs, protect your reputation, and keep your trucks moving.
Vision
We don't want to be the cheapest supplier in the Finger Lakes- we want to be the one you trust most. Our focus is Certified Precision, giving you the engineered certainty that every piece fits perfectly so you can finish your jobs without the typical supplier headaches.

Frequently Asked Questions
What metal gauges do you stock for wholesale gutter and roofing production?
We stock 29-gauge and 26-gauge. We can order 24-gauge or 22-gauge metal in select colors, and we stock aluminum gutter coil .032 in 15" coil and .027 for 11.75" coil. We can order 0.032 for 11.75" upon request. We can also order aluminum coil in select colors for roofing if needed.
Can I get paint samples?
Yes, you can contact our advisors via email or phone and we will send you the requested samples. Alternatively, you can stop by the showroom to browse our sample shelf.
How do I find the correct profile codes for custom trim in the portal?
The code for custom trim is CT + the paint code; for example, black would be CTBL. For crinkle colors it would be 26CT + Paint code , or as with any trim you can type on the name and hit the space bar to search for the item. Our advisors will be happy to assist you with any questions or problems and help you set up an account if you don't have one.
Do you offer sustainable or eco-friendly options?
Yes, most of our metal is produced and painted in the USA and comes with a 40 year warranty, making metal one of the most sustainable options for roofing and siding. The mills that produce our metal source up to 75% of their metal from recycled steel, making steel one of the most eco-friendly products for siding and roofing because it can be recycled multiple times.
What are your delivery times?
Our hours are 7:00 to 5:00, Monday through Friday, we try to schedule our deliveries within that time frame. If you have special circumstances, you can always talk to one of our advisors.
Are there warranties available for your products?
Yes there are documents under the warranties tab of each product page. If you can't find what you are looking for, contact one of our advisors.
Is it cheaper to put a metal roof or shingles?
While shingles are usually cheaper upon initial installation, if you factor in that most shingles in our harsh NY weather last only 15 to 20 years, metal is the economical option because of the sustainability and longevity of your metal roof or siding. With metal roofing and siding there is almost no maintenance cost, and 30 years down the road your roof is still looking great.
Which companies offer metal roofing installation in the Finger Lakes area?
We have a crew that specializes in standing seam metal roofs or metal shingles, but we can also quote you an installation for metal siding, Empire, or Elite Panel metal roofs. If we don't have time or aren't interested, we can provide you with the contact information for a contractor we recommend to complete your dream project.
