FAQs
What does your free metal-roof inspection in Elizabethton include?
Our certified roofing specialist will visit your property, examine the entire metal roof system (panels, fasteners, underlayment, flashing, ridge caps, gutters, and penetrations), check for rust, loose screws, oil-canning, storm or hail impact, and assess attic ventilation and moisture levels. We take photos, note any code or safety issues, and provide a written report with repair or replacement recommendationsâall at no cost or obligation.
How long will the inspection take, and do I need to be home?
Most residential inspections take 30â60 minutes. Larger homes, steep slopes, or hard-to-reach sections can add a little more time. You donât have to be home for the roof-top portion, but we prefer that youâre available at the end so we can review findings, show photos, and answer questions face-to-face. If you canât be there, weâll email the full report and schedule a follow-up call.
Why is metal roofing a smart choice for Elizabethtonâs climate?
Carter County experiences high UV exposure, heavy summer downpours, occasional hail, and winter freeze-thaw cycles. Quality steel or aluminum panels with Kynar 500ÂŽ coatings resist fading, chalking, and corrosion, while the interlocking seams shed water and snow efficiently. A metal roof is also Class A fire-rated and can withstand 140-mph windsâideal for the mountain gusts we sometimes see in East Tennessee.
Is the inspection really free, and will I be pressured to sign a contract?
Yesâthere is zero cost for the inspection, report, or consultation. We believe an informed homeowner makes the best decision, so we never use high-pressure tactics. After you receive your report and quote, you can compare options, ask more questions, or decide not to proceed. The inspection remains free either way.
How soon can you schedule repairs or a new metal roof after the inspection?
Minor repairs (re-securing panels, replacing screws, sealing penetrations) can usually be scheduled within 3â5 business days. Full replacements or new installations typically begin within 2â4 weeks, depending on material color availability and permitting. We keep popular standing-seam colors in stock to shorten lead times, and weâll give you a firm start date before you sign anything.
Will my homeownerâs insurance cover metal roof repairs or replacement?
Coverage depends on your policy and the cause of damage. If the inspection reveals storm-related issuesâhail dents, wind-lifted panels, or fallen-limb puncturesâwe can document the damage with photos and help you file a claim. Many carriers pay for repair or full replacement if the roof is compromised by a covered peril. Normal wear and cosmetic fading, however, are typically excluded. Weâll guide you through the process and meet with the adjuster if needed.
