What our customers say

Wil was very professional and gave helpful advice on what to do about our roof

Jessica C.

HEP is by far one of the best companies, of any kind, I've ever dealt with. We've had HEP replace our HVAC system and just signed contracts with them for some major plumbing repair and a new roof. In our experience with HEP, we've found that they do everything, and they do everything really well. Which is great for us because we don't have to waste any time going through the giant pain process of finding contractors and then finding out if we can trust them. With HEP, the whole experience is like working with your brothers and sisters. Everyone we've met has gone out of their way to make us feel like we're part of their family. To me, the kind of quality service you get from that kind of a business relationship is worth its weight in gold. Thank you, HEP!

We called Hep for a leaking roof. They were quick to respond and when they came out took photos to show us what needed to be done. The mgr. who had come out to evaluate the job came back to ensure everything he told us was to be done would be done. He checked out the job and we felt secure knowing everything was checked on to have been done correctly and what wasn't was redone right. Would definately reccommend Hep for roof work.

Comprehensive Metal Roofing Solutions from HEP

HEP offers end-to-end metal roofing services, addressing every stage of a roof’s lifecycle—from evaluation and design to installation, maintenance, and eventual replacement.

Detailed Roof Inspection

A thorough assessment identifies deck integrity, ventilation adequacy, and any underlying structural issues. Infrared scanning and moisture meters expose hidden leaks, allowing corrective measures before new panels go on.

Customized Material Selection

HEP weighs factors such as slope, architectural style, neighborhood guidelines, and client preference to recommend the optimal metal profile, gauge, and coating system. The goal is a roof that performs as impressively as it looks.

Precision Installation Techniques

Trained installers use concealed-fastener systems, floating clips, and factory-formed panels to accommodate thermal movement while delivering crisp, clean lines. Proper sealing around penetrations ensures long-term watertight performance.

Post-Installation Support

Routine inspections, proactive fastener checks, and re-sealant schedules maintain peak performance. HEP records each roof’s specifications to streamline future service calls and documentation needs.

The HEP Metal Roof Installation Process

A systematic approach grounded in best practices yields consistent, high-quality outcomes.

Job-site setup and safety perimeter
Tear-off of existing roofing and disposal in environmentally responsible manner
Deck repairs or replacement to provide a sound substrate
Ice- and water-shield application at eaves, valleys, and penetrations
Synthetic underlayment installation for secondary moisture protection
Panel measurement, on-site roll forming (when specified), and labeling

Preparation and Tear-Off

HEP’s crews protect landscaping, HVAC units, and siding with plywood barriers and tarps. Material separation allows recyclable metals and shingles to divert from landfills.

Underlayment and Moisture Barrier

High-temperature underlayments withstand the elevated surface temps produced by reflective metal panels. Self-adhered membranes secure vulnerable areas such as skylight curbs.

Panel Alignment and Securement

Laser alignment tools ensure perfectly straight panel courses. Clips are fastened according to manufacturer torque specs, preserving warranty and preventing oil-canning.

Flashing and Ventilation Integration

Custom-bent flashings seal chimneys, dormers, and valleys. Ridge vents combine with soffit intakes to maintain balanced airflow, reducing condensation and prolonging insulation life.

Final Inspection

Project managers conduct a multi-point checklist covering panel hem integrity, sealant continuity, fastener tightness, and debris removal. Homeowners or building supervisors receive a walk-through to confirm satisfaction.

Energizing Efficiency and Sustainability

HEP designs metal roofing systems with robust environmental benefits that resonate with eco-conscious clients and local sustainability initiatives.

Cool Roof Coatings

Reflectivity values exceeding ENERGY STAR thresholds
Decreased urban heat-island effect for densely built neighborhoods
Extended lifespan of HVAC components through reduced workload

Solar Panel Compatibility

Standing seam panels accept clamp-on PV mounting brackets without roof penetrations. The synergy between a reflective roof and photovoltaic array maximizes energy savings.

Recyclability

Metal panels contain a high percentage of recycled content and remain fully recyclable at end of life, minimizing waste streams and resource extraction.

Maintenance and Repair Services

Even resilient metal roofs benefit from routine care. HEP offers structured maintenance plans tailored to roof size, pitch, and surrounding environmental factors.

Scheduled Roof Health Checks

Bi-annual inspections detect early signs of panel abrasion, fastener loosening, or sealant shrinkage. Early intervention prevents minor issues from escalating.

Emergency Leak Response

Storm damage can dislodge flashings or puncture panels. Rapid deployment crews restore watertight integrity with matching materials and color-coordinated coatings.

Panel Re-Anchoring and Fastener Upgrades

Thermal cycling eventually loosens exposed fasteners on older installations. HEP replaces them with oversized stainless steel screws equipped with neoprene washers for renewed security.

Protective Coating Reapplication

Specialized elastomeric or fluoropolymer coatings revive color vibrancy and boost ultraviolet resistance, extending aesthetic life cycles and reducing future maintenance costs.

Enhancing Curb Appeal with Color and Finish Options

Color charts span subtle earth tones to bold architectural hues, enabling owners to align roofs with siding, masonry, and trim palettes. Matte, gloss, and textured finishes introduce depth and highlight architectural features such as gables and dormers. High-performance PVDF coatings resist chalking and fading, ensuring the shade selected today remains consistent for decades under Sale Creek’s sun-intense summers.

For commercial projects, HEP offers custom color matching to corporate branding guidelines. Residential clients might explore multi-tone blends to emulate natural patinas found in copper or weathered steel without waiting years for oxidation to occur.

Safety and Compliance Commitments

HEP’s dedication to safety safeguards clients, crews, and properties throughout every phase of construction.

OSHA-Compliant Worksites

Fall-protection systems include guardrails, anchor points, and personal arrest devices
Daily toolbox talks emphasize hazard recognition specific to each jobsite
Equipment inspections maintain ladders, lifts, and power tools in top working order

Local Building Code Expertise

Permitting and code-compliance paperwork is handled in-house. By staying abreast of Sale Creek’s evolving ordinances on wind uplift, ventilation requirements, and energy standards, HEP mitigates delays and costly rework.

Insurance and Warranty Protections

Comprehensive general liability and workers’ compensation policies protect property owners from unforeseen liabilities. Manufacturer and workmanship warranties provide layered assurance for long-term roof performance.

Serving Residential and Commercial Clients in Sale Creek

Whether it’s a cozy lakefront cottage, a suburban subdivision home, or a sprawling manufacturing facility along US-27, HEP calibrates each project to the structure’s unique needs. Residential projects often prioritize aesthetic harmony with shutters, doors, and landscaping, while commercial roofs foreground low lifecycle costs and integration with rooftop mechanical systems. HEP’s project managers coordinate scheduling to minimize disruption, staging crews and deliveries with sensitivity to homeowners’ routines or business operating hours.

HEP’s commitment extends to community institutions such as churches, schools, and municipal buildings, where long-span roofs and steep pitches demand experienced crews. Firestations and service garages, laden with vent stacks and skylights, benefit from HEP’s expertise in penetration flashing.

Signs You May Need a Metal Roof Replacement

Recurrent leaks despite patching, signaling underlayment degradation
Noticeable panel rust or coating failure, especially around fastener heads
Extensive denting from hail compromising protective finishes
Structural sagging indicating compromised decking or trusses
Exposed fasteners backing out and leaving enlarged holes
Energy bills trending upward due to diminished reflective properties

The Economic Value of a HEP Metal Roof

Investing in a HEP-installed metal roof yields tangible returns across multiple fronts. Utility savings accrue from improved thermal reflectivity, and insurance premiums often decrease because of enhanced fire and wind resistance ratings. Minimal maintenance means fewer service calls and reduced material replacement costs over time. For commercial buildings, accelerated depreciation schedules for metal roofs can offer tax advantages, while residential homeowners may enjoy increased property values and stronger negotiating positions during resale.

A well-executed metal roofing system also guards interior assets—equipment, inventory, furnishings—from water damage, lowering potential loss and associated downtime. The roof’s longevity defers future replacement expenses, stretching capital improvement budgets further and stabilizing long-term financial planning.

Geographic Advantages: Sale Creek Topography and Roofing Requirements

Sale Creek’s varied elevations and proximity to the waterway influence local microclimates. Valley fogs and high humidity encourage condensation risk, making continuous ridge ventilation and breathable underlayments essential. Elevated properties experience enhanced wind exposure funneled through valleys, necessitating higher wind-uplift ratings for panel clips and fasteners.

HEP factors in these geographic details when calculating panel length, rib spacing, and seam type. For instance, mechanically seamed standing seam panels may be specified for ridge-top homes to achieve superior uplift resistance, while lower-slope waterfront structures might benefit from wider-rib profiles that speed rainwater evacuation during sudden downpours.

Soil types around Sale Creek influence footing stability for scaffolding and material staging. HEP’s site assessments determine whether additional shoring or alternative access methods, such as boom lifts or roof-mounted walk boards, are appropriate. The result is a tailored installation strategy that respects both the natural terrain and structural engineering requirements.
