FAQs
How do your energy-saving metal panels lower cooling bills in Beersheba Springs?
Our panels are manufactured with high-reflectance paint systems (Solar Reflectance Index 60–85) and integrated thermal breaks. By reflecting up to 70 % of incoming solar radiation and limiting heat gain through the roof and walls, attic temperatures can drop 30–40 °F. Homeowners and business owners in Beersheba Springs typically report 15–30 % reductions in summer air-conditioning costs compared with dark asphalt shingles or fiber-cement siding.
Are metal roofing and siding panels durable enough for the local climate and severe storms?
Yes. We use 26- to 24-gauge G-90 galvanized steel or aluminum alloy rated for 140 mph winds and UL-2218 Class 4 impact resistance—the highest hail rating available. Factory-applied Kynar 500® finishes resist UV fading and chalking, while tight interlocking seams shed the heavy rains common on the Cumberland Plateau. Each system carries a 40-year finish warranty and a 50-year substrate warranty.
Do your cool-roof coatings or insulated backers qualify for energy-efficiency tax credits?
Many of our ENERGY STAR® listed colors and the optional polyiso insulated backer (up to R-10) meet the federal §25C energy-efficiency requirements, which currently allow a 30 % tax credit (capped at $1,200 per year) on qualified roofing materials. Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) rebates may also apply for commercial projects that exceed ASHRAE 90.1 by at least 10 %. We supply all manufacturer documentation needed for filing.
How long will a metal roof or wall system last compared with traditional materials?
Properly installed metal panels routinely last 50 years or more—roughly double the life of architectural asphalt shingles and four to five times that of wood siding. They are non-combustible (Class A fire rating), resist termites and rot, and will not warp or crack under temperature swings from winter lows near 20 °F to summer highs above 90 °F.
What maintenance do the panels require after installation?
Very little. An annual low-pressure rinse to remove pollen and dust is usually all that is needed. Fasteners are corrosion-resistant and hidden, so there are no exposed screws to back out. Unlike shingles, metal panels do not need periodic re-sealing or granule top-ups. Should a panel ever be damaged, it can be individually replaced without dismantling the entire roof or wall.
Can the panels be installed over my existing roof or siding, and how long does installation take?
In most cases, yes. Our lightweight panels (0.9–1.3 lb/ft²) can be installed over one layer of sound asphalt shingles or lap siding, reducing landfill waste and labor charges. A typical 2,000 ft² single-family roof takes 2–3 days to complete, while a full re-siding project may take up to a week depending on trim complexity. We provide free on-site assessments to confirm substrate integrity and give a fixed-price quote.
