FAQs
Why is metal roofing a smart choice for homes and businesses in Jonesborough?
Jonesborough experiences hot, humid summers, occasional heavy storms, and cold, wet winters. Metal roofing excels in all these conditions because panels are interlocking and coated to resist wind-driven rain, hail, snow, and UV rays. The material is non-combustible, reflects much of the sun’s radiant heat, sheds snow quickly, and will not rot, warp, or host mold in our humid climate. As a result, metal roofs provide decades of reliable, low-maintenance protection that traditional asphalt shingles simply can’t match.
What kind of maintenance does a metal roof actually need?
Metal roofing is considered “set-and-forget” compared with other systems. Routine upkeep generally includes: (1) a visual inspection once or twice a year to make sure branches or debris haven’t accumulated, (2) gentle rinsing with a garden hose if pollen or dirt builds up, and (3) clearing gutters so water can flow freely. Fasteners and sealant points should be checked every 10–15 years by a professional, but there is no need for the frequent shingle replacements, moss treatments, or granular loss monitoring that asphalt roofs require.
How long will a metal roof last, and what warranties are available?
High-quality steel or aluminum panels last 40–70 years—more than double the average life of asphalt shingles. Our standing-seam systems carry a 40- to 50-year manufacturer’s finish warranty against fading, chalking, and rust as well as a lifetime workmanship warranty from our Jonesborough installation team. That means the product and the labor are both covered for as long as you own your home, giving you long-term peace of mind.
Can metal roofing help lower my energy bills?
Yes. Modern metal panels are finished with specialized Kynar 500® or SMP coatings that reflect a high percentage of solar radiation. By reducing heat absorption, attic temperatures remain up to 30°F cooler, easing the strain on your HVAC system and cutting summer energy costs by 10–25%. When paired with proper attic ventilation and insulation, homeowners in Jonesborough often recoup a portion of their investment through reduced utility bills year-round.
Isn’t metal roofing noisy when it rains or hails?
No. Today’s systems are installed over solid decking, underlayment, and optional high-density foam backers, which all dampen sound. Studies by the Metal Construction Association show that a properly installed metal roof is only 6 decibels louder than an asphalt roof—an amount most people can’t distinguish. Many clients in Jonesborough are pleasantly surprised at how quiet their homes remain even during heavy downpours.
How does the upfront cost of metal roofing compare to asphalt shingles, and are financing options available?
A premium metal roof typically costs 2–3 times more than a standard architectural shingle roof. However, when you spread that investment over 50+ years of service life, minimal maintenance costs, potential energy savings, and higher resale value, metal becomes the more economical choice long term. To make the initial expense easier, we offer low-interest financing plans, same-as-cash promotions, and seasonal discounts for Jonesborough residents, allowing most homeowners to install a metal roof for an affordable monthly payment.
