Lone Wolf Roofing works from 2882 Cleary Avenue, Metairie, LA 70002. We are a woman-owned and family-owned roofing company based in Metairie, backed by Manale family roots in roofing and construction that go back to 1993. Our Metairie office serves Metairie. We are open Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. We are closed Sunday. We also offer 24/7 emergency tarping in Metairie.
We repair leaks, damaged shingles, failed flashing, and more. We fix the problem without replacing the whole roof. If the damage is widespread, we will recommend a replacement. See our roof repair page.
If your roof is worn out or too damaged to repair, a full replacement is the answer. We will provide an estimate that outlines the scope of work and approximate cost. See our roof replacement page.
Wind and heavy rain can damage shingles, flashing, soffit, and fascia. We inspect the damage and help you understand the next steps, including the insurance claim process. See our storm damage restoration page and roof insurance claims page.
If you need FORTIFIED Roofs, we are an IBHS FORTIFIED Roofing Contractor. We install a durable, long-lasting FORTIFIED roofs throughout Metairie. See our FORTIFIED roofing page.
Our inspection will tell you the condition of your roof and whether it needs repair, replacement, or nothing yet. This is absolutely free, with no obligation or strings attached. See our roof inspection page.

Bucktown is north of West Esplanade Avenue, by Lake Pontchartrain and the 17th Street Canal. Most homes here are single-family. You also see raised cottages, two-family homes, small apartment and condo buildings, and some mid-rise buildings near Old Hammond Highway. Much of the wider area was built from the 1950s through the 1970s. The oldest buildings are closer to the lake and the canal.
Fat City is around West Esplanade Avenue, Severn Avenue, and Veterans Memorial Boulevard. North of 18th Street, most homes are two-story apartments and condos. South of 18th Street, most buildings are businesses.
Storms in Metairie can bring strong wind, rain blown sideways, heavy rainfall, and sometimes tornadoes. If a storm hurts your roof, call us. We offer 24/7 emergency tarping in Metairie and emergency roof repair when the storm is done. We will also help you on filing your roof insurance claims. One Metairie customer, Jack F., says in his review that his roof was tarped within 3 hours of finding a hole.
This was a full replacement. We tore off the old roof. Then we checked the roof deck, which is the wood surface under the roofing. Ten pieces of wood were rotten or damaged, and we replaced them. The new roof has two layers of underlayment, the water-resistant layer under the shingles. It has a sticky leak barrier in the valleys, the low spots where two roof slopes meet. It has starter shingles along the edges and cap shingles on the ridges. We also added new drip edge, a metal strip that helps move water away from the roof's edge. We added new pipe jacks, the seals around pipes, and sealed the other openings. This job shows why a new roof should start with a look at the wood underneath. It was not a FORTIFIED job.
This roof is about 1,800 square feet, or 18 roofing squares. The pitch, or steepness, is about 5/12. We built it to FORTIFIED Roof rules. FORTIFIED is a set of building rules for stronger roofs. The job was bid through the Louisiana Fortify Homes Program. We laid a 1/2-inch OSB overlay across the deck. OSB is a wood panel. We nailed it to the rafters, the beams under the deck, with 3-inch ring shank nails. Ring shank nails have ridges that help them grip the wood. We covered the whole deck with a leak barrier and used 26-gauge drip edge. Each shingle got six nails.
