FAQs
Why is an energy-efficient metal panel roof a smart choice for Kelso’s wet, temperate climate?
Kelso experiences heavy rainfall, cool winters, and mild summers. Our high-performance metal panels shed rain quickly, resist moss and algae that thrive in the Pacific Northwest, and include reflective coatings that bounce back solar heat on warmer days. This combination helps keep attic temperatures stable and reduces the moisture-related problems that often shorten the life of traditional asphalt shingles in Kelso’s climate.
How much can I expect to save on energy bills after installing Roofing Done Right metal panels?
Homeowners in the Kelso area typically report 10–25 % lower heating and cooling costs. The panels feature a Cool Roof rated finish that reflects up to 70 % of solar radiation, while the integrated vented ridge cap promotes continuous airflow beneath the roof deck. Together, these features reduce attic heat gain in summer and prevent excessive heat loss in winter, allowing HVAC systems to run less often.
Are metal roofs noisy during rain or hail storms?
Not with our installation method. Roofing Done Right uses a solid plywood or OSB deck, a high-density acoustic underlayment, and concealed fasteners. These layers absorb sound waves so effectively that indoor noise levels are comparable to or quieter than those under an asphalt shingle roof. Many Kelso clients are surprised that they don’t hear any extra noise even during heavy Pacific Northwest downpours.
How long does installation take, and will it disrupt my daily routine?
A typical single-family home in Kelso takes 2–4 days from tear-off to final inspection, weather permitting. We stage materials off-site until needed, use magnetic rollers to capture stray nails each evening, and keep driveways clear whenever possible. Most homeowners can remain in the house throughout the project, and utilities are never shut off.
What color and style options are available for energy-efficient metal panels?
We offer standing-seam and metal shingle profiles in more than 30 ENERGY STAR® rated colors, including popular northwest tones like Forest Green, Pacific Slate, and Charcoal Gray. Textured matte finishes reduce glare while maintaining high solar reflectance. Custom color matching is also available on orders of 2,000 sq ft or more.
What kind of warranty and maintenance plan comes with a Roofing Done Right metal roof?
Every installation includes a 40-year manufacturer’s warranty on the steel substrate, a 30-year fade and chalk resistance warranty on the Cool Roof coating, and our own 10-year workmanship guarantee covering leaks and fastener issues. Maintenance is minimal—an annual garden-hose rinse to remove debris and a quick visual inspection of flashings. We offer an affordable maintenance package that performs those tasks for you each spring.
