FAQs
What advantages does a high-performance metal roof offer over traditional asphalt shingles in Sevierville’s climate?
Sevierville experiences hot, humid summers, cold winters, and frequent wind-driven rain. High-performance metal roofing is engineered to withstand temperature swings and 140-mph winds without cracking or curling. Its interlocking panels shed rain and snow quickly, reducing the risk of leaks, ice dams, and mold growth common with asphalt. Metal also reflects up to 70 % of solar heat, lowering attic temperatures and summertime cooling costs, while specialized Kynar® coatings resist fading from UV rays that rapidly age shingle roofs.
How long can I expect a high-performance metal roof to last, and what warranties are available?
With proper installation and minimal maintenance, a high-performance steel or aluminum roof will last 40–70 years—two to three times longer than premium architectural shingles. Most manufacturers back the metal substrate for 40–50 years against perforation from rust, and give a 30-to-40-year finish warranty that covers chalking, fading, and peeling. Our Sevierville installation team adds a transferable 10-year workmanship warranty, so any labor-related issues are covered at no additional cost.
Will a metal roof make my home hotter or noisier during Sevierville’s summer storms?
No. Modern metal roofs are installed over solid decking, synthetic underlayment, and (in most homes) attic insulation. These layers create a thermal and acoustic barrier comparable to, or better than, asphalt shingles. Standing-seam systems use concealed fasteners, eliminating the “oil canning” noise older exposed-fastener roofs sometimes produced. Because metal reflects radiant heat instead of absorbing it, most homeowners notice cooler indoor temperatures and quieter rain events compared with their previous roof.
Are there specific metal roof profiles, colors, or coatings that comply with Sevierville building codes and HOA guidelines?
Sevier County uses the 2018 International Residential Code (IRC) with local amendments that recognize UL Class 4 impact-rated metal roofing and require a minimum 26-gauge panel or thicker. Many local HOAs permit standing-seam, stamped metal shake, or metal tile profiles as long as they are low-gloss and earth-tone in color. We stock over 30 Energy Star® approved colors and matte finishes that meet both code and architectural guidelines. Before installation we submit shop drawings, color chips, and uplift test reports to your HOA or the city permits office to streamline approvals.
How much does a high-performance metal roof cost in Sevierville, and does it provide energy savings or insurance discounts?
Installed costs typically range from $9 to $14 per square foot, depending on roof complexity, panel profile, and whether existing layers must be removed. While the upfront price is higher than asphalt, homeowners recoup value through (1) a 25–35 % reduction in cooling bills, (2) possible 5–15 % home-insurance premium discounts for Class 4 impact resistance, and (3) little to no maintenance or replacement costs for decades. A recent REMI study shows Sevier County homes with metal roofs realize an average 6 % resale value premium.
What is the installation timeline and process for replacing my current roof with a high-performance metal roof in Sevierville?
From signed contract to final inspection, most projects take 2–3 weeks. Materials are custom-fabricated locally within 7–10 days. On-site work begins with protective landscaping, then we remove existing roofing and inspect the decking. Any damaged wood is replaced, followed by synthetic underlayment and high-temp ice-and-water shield in valleys and eaves. Panels are roll-formed on site to your roof’s exact dimensions, minimizing seams and waste. Trim, ridge vents, and snow guards are installed next, then we perform a magnet sweep and haul-off.
