FAQs
How long can I expect a metal roof installed by Rolling Hills Roofing to last in the Sparta climate?
Properly installed and maintained metal roofs routinely last 50–70 years in our region, even with Sparta’s freeze-thaw cycles and summer heat. The steel and aluminum panels we use are factory-finished with Kynar 500® or SMP paint systems that resist UV fading, chalking, and corrosion. Fasteners are stainless or epoxy-coated for extra durability. Periodic inspections and an occasional cleaning are usually all that’s needed to keep the roof performing for decades.
Is a metal roof noisier than asphalt shingles when it rains or hails?
When installed over solid decking with a high-quality underlayment—our standard method—the difference in noise between a metal roof and an architectural shingle roof is minimal. The roof deck, insulation, attic air space, and finished ceiling all absorb sound. Many clients actually report the rain noise is pleasantly muted. If additional sound dampening is desired, we can add an acoustic membrane underlayment for an extra layer of quiet.
What is the typical cost of a metal roof in Sparta compared with traditional shingles?
Up-front, a standing-seam steel roof from Rolling Hills Roofing averages $9–$14 per square foot installed, depending on panel profile, color, and roof complexity. High-end asphalt shingles run $5–$7 per square foot. While metal costs more initially, it outlasts two to three shingle cycles, reduces energy bills by up to 25 %, and often lowers homeowners-insurance premiums—making the lifetime cost significantly lower.
Will a metal roof make my home more energy efficient?
Yes. Metal roofing reflects a large portion of solar radiant heat. Our Cool Roof–rated colors have infrared reflective pigments that keep attic temperatures 10–15 °F cooler in summer, reducing HVAC load and monthly energy costs. In winter, the panels quickly shed snow, preventing ice dams and associated heat loss. Couple the roof with adequate attic insulation and ventilation, and you’ll notice year-round savings.
Can Rolling Hills Roofing install metal panels over my existing shingles?
In many cases, yes. Sparta’s building code allows a second roofing layer if the existing shingles are flat, the decking is sound, and total roof weight limits are met. Installing over shingles can save tear-off costs and keep old materials out of the landfill. We add a synthetic slip-sheet to isolate the panels from the shingles, preventing abrasion. However, if decking is damaged or there are ventilation issues, we recommend a full tear-off before the metal roof goes on.
What warranties do you provide on metal roofing systems?
All of our primary panel manufacturers back their finishes with 40-to-45-year limited paint warranties and 30-year fade/chalk coverage. Rolling Hills Roofing adds a 10-year workmanship warranty that covers leaks due to installation defects. Fasteners, flashings, and accessories are warranted for 20 years. Together, these warranties give you comprehensive protection on materials and labor for decades.
