FAQs
What are the main advantages of installing a metal roof on my Louisville home?
Metal roofing delivers superior durability, energy efficiency, and contemporary curb appeal. It resists Louisville’s hail, high winds, and heavy rain better than asphalt shingles, can last 40–70 years, reflects solar heat to lower cooling bills, and is available in a variety of colors and profiles that give your home a clean, modern look.
How well does metal roofing handle Louisville’s weather extremes, including hailstorms and humidity?
Quality metal panels are UL 2218 Class-4 impact rated—the highest score for hail resistance—and can withstand wind gusts up to 140 mph when properly fastened. A baked-on Kynar 500® finish prevents rust in our humid summers, while a high-sloped standing-seam system quickly sheds snow and torrential rain, reducing leak risk year-round.
Will a metal roof really boost curb appeal and home value?
Yes. A sleek standing-seam or metal shake roof instantly modernizes the exterior, creating sharp, clean roof lines that attract buyers. According to Remodeling Magazine’s Cost vs. Value Report, metal roofing in the South-East region recoups 60–70 % of its cost at resale—higher than most exterior upgrades—while giving your home a distinctive, upscale aesthetic.
How long does it take to install a new metal roof, and will you remove my old shingles?
Most residential projects in Louisville take 2–4 days, depending on roof size and complexity. We safely tear off and recycle your existing shingles, inspect the decking, install high-temperature underlayment and appropriate flashing, then fasten the new metal panels. Our crew keeps the site clean and uses magnetic rollers to collect nails each day.
Is metal roofing energy-efficient, and can it lower my utility bills?
Absolutely. Metal reflects solar radiation instead of absorbing it like dark shingles. With Louisville’s hot, humid summers, cool-roof coatings can cut attic temperatures by 30 °F and reduce peak cooling demand by up to 25 %. In winter, a properly vented metal roof also retains indoor heat, trimming overall HVAC costs year-round.
What kind of maintenance and warranty should I expect?
Maintenance is minimal: an annual rinse with a garden hose, gutter cleaning, and occasional inspection of flashing and fasteners. Our panels carry a 30- to 40-year manufacturer’s finish warranty against fading, chalking, and peeling, plus a limited lifetime workmanship warranty from Modern Curb Appeal Roofing covering leaks or installation defects for as long as you own the home.
