FAQs
What benefits does a metal roof offer for homes and businesses in Jacksboro’s climate?
Jacksboro experiences intense summer heat, the occasional hailstorm, and strong straight-line winds. Our steel and aluminum panels are rated to withstand wind speeds up to 140 mph, carry Class 4 hail‐impact resistance, and reflect a significant portion of the sun’s radiant heat. The result is superior durability, fewer storm-related repairs, and cooler attic temperatures that can cut summer energy bills by 10–25 % compared to asphalt shingles.
How long will a metal roof last compared with traditional asphalt shingles?
A properly installed metal roofing system typically lasts 40–70 years in North Texas, more than twice the 15–25 year life expectancy of standard shingles. The baked-on Kynar or SMP paint finishes resist chalking and fading, and the interlocking panels do not dry out or become brittle under UV exposure, so you avoid the premature granule loss common with asphalt roofs in our hot, sunny climate.
Are metal roofs energy-efficient, and do they qualify for any rebates or tax credits?
Yes. Cool-pigment coatings are ENERGY STAR® listed and meet reflectance/emittance standards that keep roof surface temperatures up to 50 °F cooler. Many Jacksboro homeowners see HVAC run times drop immediately after installation. While current federal tax credits target solar and insulation, some local utilities—such as Oncor’s Home Energy Efficiency program—offer seasonal rebates for reflective roofing. We provide all documentation needed for submission.
Will hail, high winds, or lightning damage a metal roof?
Our panels are UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated—the highest designation for hail resistance—so they resist denting and puncturing far better than composition shingles. Hidden-fastener standing-seam systems use heavy-gauge clips and screws to secure each panel to the deck, giving them wind uplift ratings exceeding Miami-Dade requirements. Regarding lightning, metal roofs do not attract strikes; they simply disperse energy safely because they are non-combustible and grounded through the structure.
Does a metal roof make the house louder during rainstorms?
No. Modern residential metal roofs are installed over solid decking, underlayment, and often attic insulation, which dampen sound. Decibel tests show metal roofing is equal to—or slightly quieter than—asphalt shingles when installed over the same substrate. The “barn roof” noise you may imagine comes from open-frame metal buildings with no sheathing under the panels, a very different construction method from home installations.
What maintenance is required to keep a metal roofing system in top condition?
Metal roofs are virtually maintenance-free. We recommend an annual visual inspection to remove tree debris from valleys and gutters and to verify sealant integrity around penetrations such as vent pipes. Fasteners on exposed-fastener panels should be checked every 10–15 years and replaced if washers age. Otherwise, normal rainfall keeps the surface clean; no power-washing, re-shingling, or algae treatments are necessary. With basic care, your metal roof will protect your property for decades.
