FAQs
What exactly are seamless metal roof panels and how do they differ from standard metal roofing?
Seamless metal panels are roll-formed on-site in continuous lengths custom-cut to your roof dimensions. Because there are no horizontal seams and far fewer vertical joints, vulnerable lap connections are virtually eliminated. Standard factory-cut panels come in preset lengths that must be overlapped and screwed together, creating hundreds of potential leak points. Our seamless system gives you a sleek look, tighter weather seal, and stronger wind resistance—ideal for the heavy thunderstorms and freeze-thaw cycles we see around Lynchburg.
How long can I expect a seamless metal roof to last in Lynchburg’s climate?
With proper installation and minimal upkeep, seamless metal panel roofs routinely last 40–70 years, more than twice the lifespan of asphalt shingles. The heavy-gauge, Kynar-coated steel or aluminum we use resists rust, UV breakdown, and hail. Central Virginia’s hot summers, high humidity, and occasional snow loads place extra stress on roofing materials, but the continuous panels shed water and snow quickly, preventing moisture intrusion and ice damming. Most homeowners never have to replace their roof again, and our Roofing Done Right workmanship warranty backs that longevity.
Will a metal roof be noisy when it rains or hails?
Not when it’s installed correctly. Our system sits on a solid deck with high-density synthetic underlayment and optional foam backer boards that dampen vibration. Attic insulation further absorbs sound. Tests show that rain noise levels under a properly installed metal roof are comparable to, or even quieter than, those under asphalt shingles. During hail, the rigid metal actually distributes impact energy, reducing both noise and damage.
Are seamless metal roofs energy-efficient?
Yes. The baked-on Kynar coatings we use are ENERGY STAR® rated and contain infrared-reflective pigments that bounce away up to 70 % of the sun’s heat. In Lynchburg’s hot, humid summers that can drop attic temperatures by 20–30 °F and cut cooling bills by 10–25 %. In winter, the continuous panels and hidden fasteners minimize air leakage, helping your insulation retain heat. Many customers also qualify for federal tax credits on cool-roof metal products.
What kind of maintenance does a seamless metal roof require?
Maintenance is minimal. Unlike shingle roofs, you won’t be replacing blown-off tabs or sealing cracked flashing every few years. Seasonal tasks include clearing leaves from valleys and gutters, checking that snow guards (if installed) are secure, and rinsing pollen or tree sap build-up with a garden hose. Fasteners are concealed, so there are no exposed screws to back out. We offer an optional five-year inspection program where our technicians verify sealant integrity and remove any debris at no cost.
How is the installation process handled by Roofing Done Right and how long will my project take?
1. Consultation & Quote – We inspect your roof, discuss color/metal options, and provide a fixed-price proposal within 24 hours. 2. Custom Fabrication – On installation day, our portable roll former produces continuous panels on-site, eliminating shipping delays and panel damage. 3. Tear-Off & Deck Prep – Old roofing is removed, sheathing is inspected, and any soft spots are replaced. 4. Underlayment & Flashing – Ice-and-water shield in valleys and synthetic underlayment everywhere else create a double moisture barrier. 5. Panel Installation – Panels are secured with hidden clips, then ridge caps, hips, and trim are fitted for a watertight seal. 6. Cleanup & Walk-Through – We magnet-sweep for nails and review the roof with you before final sign-off. A typical 2,000-square-foot home in Lynchburg takes 2–3 days from tear-off to final cleanup, weather permitting. Larger or more complex roofs may take up to a week, but we’ll give you a precise timeline before we start.
