FAQs
How long can I expect a metal roof from your Bean Station team to last?
Our standing-seam and concealed-fastener metal roofs routinely perform for 50–70 years in East Tennessee’s climate, more than double the life span of a high-quality asphalt shingle system. The heavy-gauge steel panels are coated with a Kynar 500® or SMP finish that resists fading, chalking, and corrosion, so you can realistically call the roof a once-in-a-lifetime investment.
Is metal roofing a good choice for Bean Station’s weather conditions?
Absolutely. Metal roofing excels in the hot, humid summers and occasionally harsh winter storms we experience in Grainger County. Panels lock together to shed the region’s heavy rains, are rated to withstand 140-mph wind gusts coming off Cherokee Lake, and carry a Class 4 hail-impact rating. The finish is also mildew-resistant, so the roof will not streak or stain the way asphalt shingles can in our humid climate.
How does the upfront cost of a metal roof compare to asphalt shingles?
A premium steel roof generally costs about 2–2.5 times more than a standard architectural-grade shingle installation. However, you avoid the expense of at least one full tear-off and re-roof every 20–25 years, and you benefit from lower cooling bills and higher resale value. When you factor in those savings, metal becomes the more economical option over the life of your home.
Will a metal roof make my home more energy-efficient?
Yes. Our panels come with a high-reflectivity coating that bounces back a significant portion of the sun’s infrared heat, reducing attic temperatures by up to 30 °F on summer afternoons. Homeowners in Bean Station report utility-bill savings of 10–25 % after upgrading to metal, and the roof is fully compatible with ridge vents, solar panels, and additional insulation.
What maintenance does a metal roof require?
Maintenance is minimal. An annual visual inspection, clearing leaves from valleys and gutters, and rinsing away heavy pollen buildup with a garden hose are usually all that is needed. Fasteners are concealed, so they do not back out, and the finish never needs painting. If a branch or falling debris dents a panel, the individual section can be swapped out without disturbing the rest of the roof.
What kind of warranty do you provide on your lifelong durability metal roofs?
Every metal roof we install in Bean Station includes a 40- or 50-year manufacturer’s finish warranty against fading, chalking, and peeling, plus a limited lifetime warranty on panel integrity. We add our own 10-year workmanship guarantee that covers installation-related issues such as leaks, loose trim, or flashing problems. Together, these warranties give you long-term peace of mind.
