Metal Roof Installations | Roofing | Sevierville
When thunderstorms sweep across the Smokies, Sevierville homeowners trust HEP to keep their families dry beneath a sleek, storm-tight shield. Our metal systems are engineered to shrug off high winds, torrential rain, and the baking summer sun, all while lending a modern mountain style that never fades or curls. Every panel is custom-cut on site, then secured with concealed fasteners that eliminate leaks before they can start—because great roofing should disappear into the background of your life, not steal your peace of mind.
Beyond resilience, a HEP metal roof is an investment that pays you back day after day. The reflective finish lowers attic temperatures and trims utility bills, while a 40-year paint warranty means you’ll spend decades enjoying your view instead of patching shingles.

FAQs
How long can I expect a metal roof to last in the Sevierville climate?
A properly installed, high-quality metal roof typically lasts 40–70 years in Sevierville. The area’s relatively mild winters, occasional snowfall, and hot, humid summers don’t significantly degrade coated steel or aluminum panels. Routine inspections and simple maintenance—such as clearing debris and checking fasteners—help your roof reach the upper end of its lifespan.
Are metal roofs energy-efficient for Sevierville homes and businesses?
Yes. Metal panels reflect a large portion of the sun’s radiant heat, which lowers attic temperatures and can cut summer cooling costs by 10–25 %. Many homeowners combine metal roofing with high-performance insulation and venting to maximize savings. ENERGY STAR-rated coatings in lighter colors provide the best performance in Sevierville’s warm, humid summers.
Will a metal roof be noisy when it rains or hails?
Modern metal roofing systems are installed over underlayment, decking, and sometimes battens, all of which dampen sound. Inside the home, noise levels are comparable to (and often quieter than) those of asphalt shingles. If you’re especially sensitive to sound, we can add foam backers or additional insulation layers to further reduce rain and hail noise.
Can a metal roof withstand the severe weather we sometimes get in Sevier County?
Absolutely. Quality metal panels are rated for wind speeds of 120–140 mph—well above most thunderstorms and downbursts in the Smokies region. They are also Class A fire-rated and provide excellent impact resistance against hail. Proper fastening patterns and sealed seams ensure your roof stays watertight during heavy rains common in East Tennessee.
How long does the installation process take and will it disrupt my daily routine?
Most residential metal roof projects in Sevierville are completed in 2–5 days, depending on roof size, pitch, and weather. We schedule material deliveries, dumpsters, and crew arrival times to minimize disruption. You can remain at home during the project; our team uses magnetic rollers for nail cleanup and conducts a final walkthrough to ensure your property is left tidy.
Do I need to remove my existing shingle roof before installing metal panels?
In many cases, no. Metal can be installed over a single layer of asphalt shingles as long as the decking is sound and local codes allow it. Installing over existing shingles can save disposal costs and add an extra thermal barrier. However, if there are multiple layers, significant deck damage, or ventilation issues, a full tear-off is recommended. We’ll inspect your roof and advise on the best approach before starting work.
