FAQs
What are the main advantages of installing a metal roof on my Benton, AR home?
Metal roofs offer exceptional durability (50+ year life expectancy), energy efficiency due to reflective coatings that lower attic temperatures, outstanding resistance to hail and high winds common in Central Arkansas, and minimal maintenance compared with asphalt shingles. They are also fire-resistant, lightweight, and made from recyclable materials, making them an eco-friendly long-term investment.
How does a metal roof handle Central Arkansas’s hot summers, heavy rains, and occasional hailstorms?
High-quality steel or aluminum panels are factory-coated with UV-resistant finishes that reflect solar heat, reducing cooling costs during our intense summers. Interlocking panels and concealed fasteners create a watertight barrier against torrential rains, while a Class 4 impact rating helps the roof withstand hail up to 2 inches in diameter. Properly installed, a metal roof is also rated to resist wind speeds of 120–140 mph, well above typical Arkansas storm gusts.
Will a metal roof be noisy when it rains?
Modern metal roofing systems installed by our Benton crew include solid sheathing, high-density underlayment, and attic insulation that dampen sound. When installed over a ventilated deck or existing shingles, most homeowners report noise levels equal to or quieter than with traditional roofing materials.
What style and color options do you offer for metal roofing in Benton?
We supply standing-seam, corrugated, and metal shingle profiles in 24- and 26-gauge Galvalume or aluminum. Color choices exceed 30 ENERGY STAR-rated hues, including popular finishes like charcoal, burnished slate, forest green, and copper-tone. Matte, high-gloss, and textured options allow you to match historic Benton homes or achieve a modern architectural look.
How much does a metal roof cost compared with asphalt shingles, and is financing available?
Upfront, a professionally installed metal roof in Central Arkansas typically runs $7–$12 per square foot, about two to three times the cost of architectural shingles. However, the longer service life, potential insurance discounts, and 10–25% energy savings often make the lifetime cost equal or lower. We provide free on-site estimates and offer 0% interest financing for up to 18 months, plus long-term payment plans to fit most budgets.
What warranties and maintenance should I expect after installation?
Our manufacturer’s finish warranty covers color integrity and chalk/fade for 30–40 years, while the panel warranty protects against perforation for 45–50 years. We include a 10-year workmanship warranty backed by annual inspection reminders. Routine maintenance involves clearing debris from valleys and gutters and a simple rinse with a garden hose; no periodic sealing or re-shingling is required.
