FAQs
How does metal roofing and siding lower my energy bills in Morristown’s climate?
High-performance metal panels are coated with specialized Kynar 500® or Cool Roof pigments that reflect a large portion of the sun’s infrared heat instead of absorbing it like asphalt shingles or wood siding. During Morristown’s hot, humid summers this can reduce attic temperatures by 30–40 °F, cutting air-conditioning demand by up to 25 %. In winter, the same panels, paired with a continuous insulated underlayment, lock conditioned air inside the home, so your heating system runs less often.
What energy-saving metal products do you install?
We provide standing-seam roofing, metal shingles, and insulated metal wall panels in steel, aluminum, and Galvalume®. All options carry ENERGY STAR® ratings, have Solar Reflective Index (SRI) values above 70 for light colors, and can be ordered with factory-applied foam cores (R-6 to R-19) to meet or exceed Tennessee energy codes.
Will a metal roof make rain or hail sound louder inside the house?
No. Modern installations include high-density roof decking, a synthetic moisture barrier, and often a rigid foam backer. These layers absorb percussion, so interior sound levels are very similar to — and often quieter than — an asphalt roof. For extra peace of mind, we can add acoustic mats that reduce noise by an additional 6–8 dB.
Can you install metal roofing or siding over my existing shingles or wood cladding?
In many cases, yes. Local code allows metal panels to be applied over a single layer of shingles or lap siding as long as the substrate is solid and free from moisture damage. This “retrofit” approach saves on tear-off costs, minimizes landfill waste, and adds another insulating air gap that boosts overall energy performance. Our technicians will inspect your current roof and walls and advise if a direct-over installation is feasible.
How long will my new metal roof and siding last, and what warranties are offered?
Properly installed metal systems last 40–70 years—roughly two to three times longer than asphalt or vinyl. Our panels come with a 40-year manufacturer’s finish warranty against fading and chalking, a 30-year corrosion warranty, and our own 10-year workmanship guarantee covering leaks, fasteners, and trim details.
Are there local incentives for choosing energy-efficient metal roofing or siding?
Yes. Morristown homeowners may qualify for the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25 % of material cost up to $1,200) when selecting ENERGY STAR® metal roofing. TVA’s EnergyRight® program also offers low-interest financing for qualifying upgrades, and some insurers provide 5–15 % premium discounts for Class 4 impact-rated metal roofs. We supply all required product documentation and will help you file the paperwork.
