FAQs
What advantages does a metal roofing system offer over traditional shingles for Sevierville properties?
Metal roofing delivers superior durability, fire resistance and energy efficiency. In Sevierville’s humid summers and occasional snowfalls, a properly coated metal panel reflects solar heat, lowering attic temperatures and reducing AC costs by 10-25 %. Unlike asphalt shingles that can crack or lose granules within 15–20 years, high-quality steel or aluminum panels last 40–70 years with minimal fading or degradation. Metal roofs are also 100 % recyclable, adding an eco-friendly benefit for homeowners and businesses.
How long can I expect my new metal roof to last in Sevierville’s climate?
With professional installation and premium fasteners from Roofing Done Right, standing-seam or screw-down metal roofing typically lasts 50 years or longer. Factory-applied Kynar 500® or SMP paint systems carry 30–40-year color warranties, and the base metal is warranted against perforation for up to 50 years. Even in the face of Sevier County’s UV exposure, hailstorms and occasional ice, routine inspections and fastener tightening every 8–10 years help the roof easily outlive two or three cycles of asphalt shingles.
Will a metal roof make my home noisier during rain or hail?
No. When installed with a solid decking (plywood or OSB), synthetic underlayment and optional attic insulation, a metal roof is no louder than shingles. The sound-dampening layers absorb vibration, so what you hear indoors is comparable to — and often quieter than — a conventional shingle roof. If you have a cathedral ceiling or exposed framing, we can add acoustic batts to further reduce noise.
How does a metal roof perform against high winds and storms common in the Smoky Mountains?
Our standing-seam panels are tested to UL 580 Class 90 wind uplift standards and are mechanically fastened or clipped to withstand gusts exceeding 140 mph — well above Sevierville’s 3-second gust design speed of 115 mph. Interlocking seams prevent water intrusion, while a high-temperature underlayment provides a secondary barrier. Impact-resistant metal easily sheds heavy snow and is rated Class 4 for hail, earning potential insurance discounts.
What maintenance is required to keep my metal roof in top condition?
Maintenance is simple: (1) Visually inspect the roof and gutters each spring and fall. (2) Remove debris that traps moisture. (3) Rinse dirt or pollen with a garden hose to preserve finish integrity. (4) Every 8–10 years, have Roofing Done Right tighten exposed fasteners on screw-down systems and check sealant at penetrations. Unlike shingles, there is no need for regular granule loss monitoring or replacement of blown-off tabs.
What is the installation timeline and process with Roofing Done Right in Sevierville?
After your free on-site assessment, we custom-measure and order panels from a regional roll-former, typically within one week. A typical 2,000 sq ft roof takes 3–4 working days: Day 1 tear-off and deck inspection; Day 2 underlayment, drip edge and flashing; Days 3–4 panel installation, ridge caps and final cleanup. Larger or more complex roofs may add a day or two. We pull all Sevier County permits, comply with International Residential Code (IRC) guidelines, and leave your property spotless — backed by a 5-year workmanship warranty in addition to manufacturer warranties.
