FAQs
What is standing-seam metal roofing and how is it different from other metal panels?
Standing-seam roofing is a concealed-fastener metal roof system in which continuous panels run from the ridge to the eave and interlock with raised vertical seams. Because the fasteners are hidden under the seams, the roof has a sleek appearance and none of the screws are exposed to weather. This contrasts with exposed-fastener panels (such as corrugated metal) where screws penetrate the surface every few feet. The concealed fastening method gives standing-seam roofs superior leak resistance, cleaner aesthetics, and an extended service life.
Why is standing-seam roofing a good choice for homes and businesses in Huntland, TN?
Huntland’s climate brings hot, humid summers, heavy rainstorms, and occasional high winds. Standing-seam panels are engineered to handle wind uplift ratings of 140 mph or higher, far exceeding local code requirements. The baked-on Kynar 500® finishes resist fading and chalking under intense UV exposure, while the raised seams quickly channel water off the roof during downpours. A high-reflectivity color option can also lower attic temperatures by up to 30 °F, keeping interiors cooler and reducing HVAC loads—an advantage during Huntland’s sultry summer months.
How long will a standing-seam metal roof last and what maintenance does it require?
When installed correctly, a standing-seam roof can last 40–70 years—two to three times longer than asphalt shingles. Maintenance is minimal: an annual visual inspection, clearing of leaves from valleys and gutters, and occasional washing with a mild detergent to remove pollen or airborne dirt. Because the fasteners are not exposed, there is no need for periodic screw tightening or gasket replacement that exposed-fastener systems require.
Can a standing-seam roof be installed over my existing shingles?
In many cases, yes. If the existing deck is sound and local code permits, we can install a vented synthetic underlayment and new standing-seam panels directly over your present shingle roof. This saves tear-off costs, keeps old materials out of the landfill, and adds an extra insulation layer. However, if the decking is rotted or if you already have two or more shingle layers, we will recommend a full tear-off to ensure a solid substrate and proper fastener penetration.
Will a standing-seam metal roof make my home more energy-efficient?
Absolutely. Cool-roof certified metal finishes reflect a significant portion of the sun’s radiant heat. Independent studies show standing-seam roofs can reduce summer cooling costs by 10–25 % in the Southeast. We also offer optional high-temperature radiant-barrier underlayments that further block heat transfer. In winter, metal’s low thermal mass helps snow slide off quickly, reducing ice dam formation and heat loss at the eaves.
What warranties and financing options are available for standing-seam installations in Huntland?
Our standing-seam profiles carry a 40-year manufacturer’s finish warranty against chalking, fading, and film integrity, plus a 25-year weathertightness warranty when installed by our certified crew. We back our craftsmanship with a 10-year labor warranty. For budgeting, we partner with local lenders to offer 6-, 12-, and 18-month zero-interest plans or traditional low-APR financing up to 120 months, allowing you to spread the investment over manageable monthly payments.
