FAQs
How long can I expect a metal roof in Turtletown to last compared with traditional shingles?
Properly installed metal roofs typically last 40–70 years, while asphalt shingles average 15–25 years. Turtletown’s hot summers and occasional hail make durability crucial; metal resists cracking, shrinking, and warping far better than shingles, giving you decades of reliable protection.
Will a metal roof make my home hotter during Turtletown’s summer months?
No. Modern metal roofing panels have reflective coatings (often ENERGY STAR® rated) that bounce solar heat away, keeping attic temperatures lower than many dark asphalt roofs. When paired with adequate ventilation, homeowners often notice reduced cooling costs.
Is it noisy when rain or hail hits a metal roof?
When installed with a solid decking, underlayment, and attic insulation (standard practice in Turtletown), a metal roof is no louder than other roofing materials. Most homeowners report no noticeable difference in sound once the roof is complete.
Can you install a metal roof over my existing shingles to save on tear-off costs?
In many cases, yes. Building codes in Polk County allow a metal roof over one layer of asphalt shingles, provided the deck is sound and local weight limits are met. Our technicians inspect for moisture damage, nail pops, and load limits before recommending an overlay or full tear-off.
How does the cost of metal roof repair compare with shingle repair in Turtletown?
Initial repair costs can be slightly higher because metal requires specialized tools and fasteners. However, metal panels often need fewer repairs over time. For example, fixing a minor puncture in steel roofing may cost $250–$450, whereas repeated shingle blow-offs can add up quickly due to patching multiple spots after each storm.
What warranty and maintenance should I expect for a new metal roof?
Most manufacturers provide 30–50-year paint and corrosion warranties; our labor warranty covers workmanship for 5–10 years, depending on the package you choose. Maintenance is minimal—annual gutter cleaning, debris removal, and a quick inspection after severe weather are usually all that’s required to keep your roof performing at its best.
