FAQs
What is a textured-finish metal roof and how does it differ from traditional smooth panels?
A textured-finish metal roof is manufactured with a subtle, stone-like embossing or granular coating that breaks up light reflection and adds depth to each panel. Unlike smooth metal, the textured surface reduces glare, better hides small dents or scratches, and mimics the look of high-end materials such as shake or slate while retaining the strength of steel or aluminum.
Why is textured-finish metal roofing a good choice for homes and businesses in Tazewell?
Tazewell experiences wide temperature swings, occasional high winds, and the potential for heavy snow. Textured metal roofing offers a Class 4 impact rating for hail, a 140-mph wind uplift rating to resist mountain gusts, and a rougher surface that slows snow-shedding for safer melt-off. The finish also carries reflective pigments that lower attic temperatures in summer, helping owners save on cooling costs.
Will the textured coating fade or chip over time?
The panels we install use a PVDF (Kynar 500®) resin mixed with ceramic color granules that are oven-cured at 400 °F. This process locks pigment into the coating and provides superior chalk- and fade-resistance. The finish is warranted for 30 years against visible fade and for 50 years against rust perforation. Routine rinsing with a garden hose is the only maintenance most property owners ever need.
Does the rough texture make the roof harder to clean or maintain?
No. The micro-embossed surface is engineered to allow rainwater to carry away most dust and organic debris. Because the coating is non-porous, algae and mildew have nothing to anchor to, unlike on asphalt shingles. If you notice pollen build-up under tree cover, a simple low-pressure wash restores the original appearance without special chemicals or brushes.
How is a textured metal roof installed compared to standard metal or shingle roofing?
Installation begins with a full tear-off of old shingles (unless a lay-over is approved) and inspection of the decking. An underlayment with a slip-resistant surface is then applied, followed by concealed fastener panels that lock together with a raised interlock seam. The textured finish does not alter panel dimensions, so installation time is similar to smooth metal—typically one to two days for an average 2,000-sq-ft roof.
What is the typical cost and return on investment for textured metal roofing in the Tazewell area?
Installed pricing averages $9–$13 per square foot, depending on panel profile, color selection, and roof complexity. While this is 2–3 times the cost of architectural shingles, most homeowners recoup the difference through lower energy bills, reduced maintenance, and a potential 5–15 % increase in resale value. Insurance carriers in Tennessee often grant premium discounts for Class 4 impact roofs, accelerating the payback period.
