About
Cheap Metal Roofing — operating under the Discount Metal Mart brand and family-owned since 1987 — is a metal roofing panel fabricator and supplier serving the Lakeland, Plant City, and greater Tampa Bay area with on-site manufactured panels, trim, and accessories. With over 35 years in the industry, the company specializes in PBR panels, a profile widely used in commercial and industrial applications including warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities across Central Florida. Panels and trim are manufactured to custom specifications on-site, which allows facility managers and general contractors to source accurately sized materials quickly — often with next-day or same-day turnaround — reducing procurement delays on time-sensitive re-roofing or repair projects. For commercial buyers, the direct-to-public model eliminates the distributor markup, offering a cost-effective supply channel for metal roofing components suited to low-slope and light commercial structures. PBR panels are a standard choice for large-footprint commercial roofs common in the Lakeland industrial corridor and Tampa Bay warehouse market, compatible with standing seam and through-fastened metal roof assemblies. Screws, accessories, hat channel, canopies, and standard trim pieces are stocked for immediate pickup, making this a practical resource for contractors managing multi-building portfolios or phased commercial re-roofing scopes. Property managers overseeing retail, multifamily, or light industrial assets should note that this is primarily a materials supplier rather than a full-service installation contractor. Facility managers seeking installed commercial roofing systems — including TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen membranes — should coordinate with a certified installation contractor. However, for metal panel procurement, custom fabrication, and accessory sourcing in the Lakeland and Tampa region, Cheap Metal Roofing offers a streamlined, cost-conscious supply solution backed by decades of fabrication experience.
