FAQs

What advantages does a metal roof offer for homes and businesses in Soddy-Daisy’s climate?

Soddy-Daisy sees hot, humid summers, frequent thunderstorms, and the occasional winter ice event. Metal roofing handles all three conditions exceptionally well. High-quality steel or aluminum panels are rated for 120-mph+ winds, shed rain quickly, resist hail denting better than asphalt shingles, and will not absorb moisture or grow algae in our humid months. A reflective paint finish also lowers roof-surface temperatures by up to 40 °F, helping HVAC systems work less during Tennessee’s peak heat.

How long can I expect a metal roof to last, and what warranties do you provide?

Properly installed metal roofs last 40–70 years—two to three times longer than architectural shingles. We install 26- or 24-gauge panels with a Kynar 500® paint system that carries a 30-year fade warranty and a 40-year film-integrity warranty. Our workmanship is backed by a 10-year labor warranty, and most panel manufacturers add a 25- to 50-year substrate (rust-through) warranty, giving you multi-layered protection for decades.

Will rain or hail make a metal roof uncomfortably noisy?

Not when it’s installed correctly. We fasten panels over a solid decking—usually 7⁄16-inch OSB or ¾-inch plywood—plus a high-density synthetic underlayment. This combination dampens sound as effectively as asphalt shingles. In fact, inside-home decibel tests show only a 2–4 dB difference between metal and shingle roofs during heavy rain, a level the human ear perceives as negligible.

Can metal roofing or new siding be installed over my existing materials to save money?

Often, yes. Tennessee building code allows a second layer of roofing or siding as long as the existing surface is structurally sound and flat. We start with a free inspection to check for moisture damage, soft decking, or uneven walls. If the substrate passes, we can install furring strips and mount the metal system over it, saving tear-off costs and keeping old material out of the landfill.

How energy-efficient are metal roofs and metal siding, and will they lower my utility bills?

Painted metal panels with ENERGY STAR®-qualified coatings reflect 25–40 % of solar heat back into the atmosphere. That translates to attic temperatures 10-15 °F cooler and whole-home energy savings of 7–15 % in the Chattanooga metro area. Insulated metal siding panels (with built-in rigid foam) add an additional R-4 to R-6 to exterior walls, complementing your existing insulation and reducing heating costs during our occasional cold snaps.

What is the typical cost and timeline for a metal roof or siding replacement in Soddy-Daisy?

Every home is unique, but most residential metal roof installations run $8–$12 per square foot of roof area, depending on panel profile, gauge, and roof complexity. A 2,000 sq ft roof usually takes 3–4 days from tear-off to final inspection. Metal siding averages $11–$16 per installed square foot and adds 1–2 days to the schedule per elevation. We provide a detailed written quote, handle Hamilton County permits, and coordinate final inspections so the project stays on time and on budget.
