FAQs
What modern roofing materials do you offer for homes and businesses in Sequatchie?
We specialize in architectural asphalt shingles, standing-seam metal panels, polymer-modified bitumen for low-slope sections, and premium synthetic slate and shake. Each material is engineered with advanced UV inhibitors, impact-resistant cores, and reflective pigments to handle Sequatchie’s hot summers, occasional hail, and heavy rains while delivering a contemporary look.
How do these modern materials hold up to Sequatchie’s weather conditions?
Sequatchie experiences wide temperature swings, strong storms, and high humidity. Architectural shingles feature double-laminated fiberglass mats that resist thermal cracking; metal panels have Kynar® 500 finishes that prevent fading and corrosion; and synthetic slate is molded with UV-stable polymers that won’t absorb moisture. All options exceed ASTM impact and wind ratings up to 130 mph, so your roof stays watertight during summer downpours and spring wind events.
What kind of lifespan and warranty can I expect?
Architectural asphalt shingles last 30–40 years, metal panels 50+ years, and synthetic slate up to 75 years. Manufacturer warranties range from 30-year limited to true lifetime coverage, and we add our own 10-year "Roofing Done Right" workmanship warranty. This means if any leak is traced back to our installation within the first decade, labor and materials are covered at no cost to you.
How does your ‘Roofing Done Right’ installation process differ from others?
Every project starts with a drone-based inspection and a written scope of work. We use high-performance synthetic underlayment, six-nail patterns or hidden clips, and self-sealing ice & water membranes at all valleys and eave lines. All flashing is hand-bent on-site from 24-gauge steel, and our crews are OSHA-certified and Sequatchie-County-licensed. A dedicated project manager is on-site daily, and a final magnetic sweep and quality checklist are completed before you sign off.
Will a modern materials roof improve my home’s energy efficiency?
Yes. Cool-roof metal finishes reflect up to 70 % of solar heat, lowering attic temperatures by 30 °F and cutting cooling bills 10–15 %. Architectural shingles with solar-reflective granules meet ENERGY STAR® criteria, and synthetic slate has built-in air channels that promote ventilation. Pairing these materials with proper ridge vents and baffles helps maintain a balanced attic, reducing HVAC strain year-round.
What is the typical cost and timeline for a new roof in Sequatchie?
Pricing depends on roof size, pitch, and material: architectural shingles average $4.50–$6.50 per sq. ft., standing-seam metal $8–$11, and synthetic slate $12–$18. A 2,000 sq. ft. roof usually takes 1–2 days for shingles, 3–4 days for metal, and up to a week for synthetic slate. We provide transparent, itemized estimates, offer 0 % short-term financing, and handle all Sequatchie County permit requirements so your project moves forward without delays.
