Questions
Do metal roofs actually withstand hurricanes?
Yes, our metal roofing systems meet Class 90 wind uplift resistance standards, tested to withstand sustained winds up to 120 mph with interlocking panels that maintain structural integrity during extreme storms.
How do metal roofs handle Louisiana's heat?
Our Kynar 500-coated roofs reflect 70% of solar radiation, reducing attic temperatures by 20-30°F. This thermal efficiency lowers cooling costs by 15-25% compared to traditional asphalt shingles.
Is financing available for roof replacement?
While we don't offer direct financing, we provide detailed documentation for third-party financing applications and work with local banks to help homeowners secure affordable payment options.
Do you provide warranties?
All installations include manufacturer warranties up to 40 years, covering materials and workmanship. We also offer optional extended coverage plans and transferable warranties for added protection.
Can metal roofs be installed on historic homes?
Yes, our steel shingle systems mimic traditional roofing materials like wood shakes and slate while providing modern durability. The lightweight design works with historic structures' weight-bearing specifications.
What's the installation timeline?
Most residential installations complete in 3-5 days depending on roof complexity. We schedule emergency repairs immediately and provide detailed timelines with material delivery forecasts before project commencement.
