Contractor Resources at Indiana Metal

Contractors, we see you.
You’ve got choices when it comes to where you buy your steel, and every time you choose Indiana Metal, we quite literally do a little dance in the breakroom. But here’s the thing—Indiana Metal isn’t just about supplying panels and trim. We’re about being your partner, your resource, your “phone-a-friend” when the job gets tricky.

If you’re new here—or if you’ve just fallen into a routine and forgotten what we bring to the table—let’s run through a few of the contractor-only resources that can make your life easier (and your business sharper).

1. Complimentary Sales & Install Training

Winter is PRIME TIME to sharpen your skills. Our sales and install trainings are free for Indiana Metal customers and designed to set you up for a strong spring.

• Sales training: Learn the ins and outs of metal applications, how to upsell with confidence, and how to close even the toughest homeowner. You’ll walk away with a full Indiana Metal Sales Kit to make quoting and presenting a breeze.

• Install training: Tell us the panel profile your crew struggles with most, and we’ll tailor a half-day session to cover it—everything from tricky cuts to proper panel layout. We even set up mock roofs so your crew gets hands-on practice.

2. Roll Former Rentals

Want to take your jobs to the next level? Our roll former rental fleet is a game-changer for standing seam and commercial applications.

• Options range from 1 ½” snap lock to 3″ trapezoid panels

• Roll panels on the jobsite in one length

• Make adjustments on the fly

• We offer optional components let you raise the machine to eave height—no more endless trips up and down the ladder

3. BuildCalc – The Contractor Estimating Tool

Speed matters. With BuildCalc, contractors can take the same aerial report they’re already using for shingles, plug in just a few familiar measurements, and in less than a minute get:

• A per-square quote

• A full material list

That’s right—metal estimating made fast, easy, and accurate. Boom, baby. Efficiency at its finest.

4. Weathertight Warranties

Seal the deal with confidence. Indiana Metal offers weathertight warranties ranging from 5 to 25 years.

• Use one of our certified Indiana Metal install crews

• Or get your own crew certified to offer warranties directly

Either way, it’s a value-add for homeowners and commercial clients that helps you close the sale and upsell metal.
