FAQs
How long can I expect a metal roof to last in Maryville’s climate?
Properly installed, high-quality steel or aluminum roofing panels routinely last 40–70 years in East Tennessee’s mix of hot summers, heavy rains, and occasional snow. The paint systems we use carry 30–40-year fade and chalk warranties, and the metal itself is warranted against rust perforation for life. Most homeowners will never have to replace their roof again.
Will a metal roof be noisy during our frequent Maryville thunderstorms?
No. When fastened over modern synthetic underlayment and ⅝-inch decking, a metal roof is no louder than asphalt shingles. The air space created by the strapping and attic insulation further deadens sound. Our customers commonly report the new roof is actually quieter than their old shingle roof during a hard rain.
How does the cost of metal roofing compare with architectural shingles?
Up front, a concealed-fastener standing-seam roof in Maryville typically costs 2–3 times more than a premium architectural shingle roof. However, when you factor in the 40–70-year life expectancy, reduced maintenance, potential insurance discounts, and a 10–25 percent energy-savings on cooling bills, lifetime ownership costs are usually lower than replacing shingles every 15–20 years.
Is metal roofing energy efficient in hot East Tennessee summers?
Yes. Our panels are coated with Energy Star-rated, highly reflective Kynar 500® finishes that bounce up to 70 % of the sun’s radiant heat. The result is attic temperatures 20–30 °F cooler, less HVAC run time, and lower utility bills. Many Maryville homeowners see paybacks in 7–10 years from energy savings alone.
Can metal roofing handle hail and high winds common around Maryville?
Absolutely. 24- and 26-gauge steel panels have a Class 4 impact rating—the highest available—and routinely pass UL 2218 hail testing. Our installations are engineered for 140 mph wind uplift to comply with Blount County building codes. Because of this resilience, many insurers offer premium discounts for metal roofs.
What maintenance is required and how do I keep my metal roof looking great?
Metal roofs are largely maintenance-free. We recommend: 1) rinsing off pollen and leaves with a garden hose once or twice a year, 2) keeping valleys and gutters clear of debris, and 3) scheduling a professional inspection every 5–7 years to verify fasteners and sealant lines. Unlike shingles, you’ll never have to worry about moss, granule loss, or recurring leaks.
