FAQs
What makes your weather-tight roofing & siding systems ideal for Hixson’s climate?
Hixson experiences hot, humid summers, sudden downpours, and occasional high-wind events. Our systems are engineered with interlocking panels, sealed fasteners, and advanced underlayments that resist wind uplift to 130 mph and shed water before it reaches the decking or wall sheathing. All components are tested to ASTM and Miami-Dade wind-driven-rain standards, ensuring they stay watertight even during Tennessee’s heaviest thunderstorms.
Which roofing and siding materials do you offer and how do they perform?
We install Class 4 impact-rated architectural shingles, standing-seam steel, and designer composite shake for roofs, along with insulated vinyl, fiber-cement, and engineered wood siding. Each material is UV-stable, fade-resistant, and treated to inhibit mold and algae growth. Insulated vinyl siding carries an R-value up to 3.0; metal roofing reflects up to 70 % of solar heat, keeping attics cooler; and fiber-cement siding is dimensionally stable, so it won’t warp during Hixson’s temperature swings.
How is the installation process managed to ensure a truly weather-tight seal?
Every project starts with a laser-precise measurement and moisture scan. Roof decks are re-fastened, flashed, and wrapped with self-adhering ice-and-water shield at all valleys, penetrations, and eaves. Siding walls receive house-wrap with taped seams plus rain-screen strapping for drainage. We use stainless or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners, apply premium sealants at joints, and finish with ridge-vent or perforated soffit systems to balance attic ventilation—critical for preventing condensation in humid conditions.
Can new siding and roofing improve my home’s energy efficiency?
Yes. Cool-rated metal or reflective shingle granules can drop roof-surface temperatures by up to 50 °F, lowering HVAC demand. Insulated vinyl siding and properly installed weather barriers reduce air infiltration and create a continuous thermal break across wall studs. Customers typically see 10-25 % heating and cooling savings after a full roof-and-siding upgrade, and many qualify for energy-efficiency tax credits or TVA rebates.
What maintenance is required to keep the roof and siding performing at their best?
Minimal upkeep is needed. We recommend a soft-wash roof and siding cleaning every 18-24 months to remove pollen and algae common to the Tennessee River Valley. Gutters should be cleared twice a year to prevent backed-up water from wicking under shingles. An annual visual inspection for sealant integrity and fastener tightness is included in our CarePlus program; we re-caulk and tighten as needed at no cost for the first five years.
What warranties and financing options are available for Hixson homeowners?
Our roofing systems carry a transferable 50-year manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty and a 10-year workmanship warranty backed by GAF or CertainTeed. Siding products include a 30-50-year fade and hail warranty. We partner with local banks and credit unions to offer 0 % APR financing for 12-18 months or low-fixed-rate plans up to 144 months, making it easy to protect your home without straining your budget.
