FAQs
Why should I choose a metal roof for my Seymour home instead of traditional asphalt shingles?
Metal roofs last 40–70 years—more than double the life span of asphalt shingles—and they handle Seymour’s hot summers, heavy rains, and occasional hail far better. They reflect solar heat, lowering cooling bills by up to 25 %, and are fire-resistant, wind-rated to 140 mph or higher, and virtually maintenance-free. Although the upfront cost is higher, the long-term savings on repairs, energy, and replacement make metal an excellent investment.
Will a metal roof make my house noisier during rain or hail storms?
No. When installed over proper underlayment and decking—as required by Tennessee building codes—a metal roof is no louder than asphalt shingles. Most homeowners actually report equal or reduced noise because the solid sheathing, attic insulation, and our high-density synthetic underlayment dampen sound vibrations effectively.
How energy-efficient are metal roofs and siding, and can they lower my utility bills?
Metal roofing panels are often ENERGY STAR®-rated and come with specialized reflective coatings (Cool Roof Technology) that bounce back a significant portion of solar radiation. This keeps attic temperatures lower, reducing HVAC workload and cutting summer energy costs by 10–25 %. Matching metal siding adds an insulated barrier that minimizes thermal bridging, further trimming heating costs in winter.
Are metal roofs and siding environmentally friendly?
Yes. Steel and aluminum roofing/siding contain 25–95 % recycled content and are 100 % recyclable at end of life, unlike asphalt shingles that end up in landfills. Their long service life also means fewer raw materials are consumed for replacements. Additionally, reflective finishes reduce urban heat-island effects and curb household carbon emissions by lessening energy usage.
What maintenance is required for a metal roof or siding system?
Maintenance is minimal. We recommend inspecting the roof and siding each spring and fall: clear any debris from valleys or gutters, check fasteners and sealant points, and rinse panels with a garden hose to remove pollen or dirt buildup. Our Kynar 500® paint finishes resist chalking and fading for decades, so no repainting is needed. If a panel is ever damaged by extreme impact, it can be replaced individually without disturbing surrounding sections.
How long does installation take, and will it disrupt my daily routine?
A typical single-family Seymour residence (2,000–3,000 sq ft) can be fully re-roofed and sided in 4–7 working days, weather permitting. We handle tear-off, decking inspection, underlayment, panel installation, trim, and cleanup. Our crew protects landscaping, manages waste in on-site dumpsters, and conducts a daily magnetic nail sweep. Homeowners can remain inside during the project; we simply ask you to keep pets and children away from work zones for safety.
