Arabi is a tight-knit riverfront community just downriver from the French Quarter, where raised cottages and post-war ranches sit on narrow lots under live oaks and pecans. The housing stock here is a mix of older homes that have weathered decades of hurricanes and newer elevated builds along the levee. If your roof is showing its age, we can help.
Homeowners in Arabi (70032) call New Orleans Metal Roofing because we understand the specific challenges of roofing here: wind-driven rain, humidity that breeds mildew, and the occasional falling limb. We are based in New Orleans and serve Arabi and the surrounding areas, and we are fully insured for your protection.
Metal Roofing in Arabi (70032)
Arabi sits on the east bank of the Mississippi, just below the Chalmette Battlefield, and its terrain is flat and low. Many properties here are on raised foundations or slabs, and drainage can be slow after heavy summer storms. The housing mix includes classic shotgun houses, raised bungalows, and newer elevated homes built after recent hurricanes. Roofs here take a beating from wind-driven rain and intense sun, and the humidity means algae and mildew are common on older shingles. Metal roofing is a smart choice because it sheds water quickly, resists wind uplift, and holds up to the sun without deteriorating like asphalt.
Our team has worked on metal roofs throughout Arabi and the greater New Orleans area. We know the local building department requirements for permits and inspections, and we can help you navigate the process. Whether you need a full replacement, a repair, or a retrofit over existing shingles, we have the experience to do it right.

How a Job Works in Arabi
Step 1: We start with a free on-site assessment. You call us at (504) 636-6074, and we schedule a time to inspect your roof, discuss your options, and provide a written estimate. We will check for leaks, loose fasteners, and any storm damage, and we will explain what we find in plain language.
Step 2: Once you approve the estimate, we pull the necessary permits (roofing permits are typically required for replacements in Arabi, and we will verify the current rules with the local building department). Our crew arrives on time, protects your landscaping, and works efficiently. Many Arabi homes have tight lot access, so we plan for that and use equipment that fits the space. If your home is in a historic district or HOA, we can help coordinate the approval process.
Step 3: After the work is done, we clean up thoroughly, haul away all debris, and walk the property with you to make sure you are satisfied. We do not consider the job finished until you are happy with the result.
