Metal Roofing for Your Home
Metal roofing has become a popular choice for homeowners who want a clean look and long-term durability—especially in areas that see heavy rain, high heat, and seasonal storms. Today’s residential systems are engineered for comfort and performance, with modern underlayments, proper decking, and installation methods that help protect the structure while improving efficiency.
Hixon’s Roofing installs metal roofing for homeowners across the CSRA and beyond, with options that fit different budgets and aesthetics. Whether you’re comparing profiles, colors, or fastening systems, we’ll explain what matters for your roof design and help you choose a solution that looks great and performs reliably.
Homeowners Love Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is valued for longevity, low maintenance, and strong resistance to common roof issues—especially when installed with correct edge details, flashing, and ventilation. It’s also lighter than many people expect, and modern coatings are designed to hold color and finish for years with minimal upkeep.
Beyond performance, metal offers a distinct, high-end look. Many homeowners choose profiles like Standing Seam for a sleek architectural style, or exposed-fastener panels such as Tuff Rib for a clean, practical solution—each with different benefits depending on the roof shape and budget. If you’re unsure what fits your home best, we’ll walk you through the options clearly and recommend what makes sense for your structure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between standing seam and exposed-fastener metal roofing?
Standing seam uses concealed fasteners and raised seams, which creates a clean look and reduces exposed penetration points—often ideal for higher-end residential installs. Exposed-fastener panels (like Tuff Rib/corrugated styles) are a cost-effective option and perform well when installed correctly, with routine checks of fasteners and seal points over time. We’ll recommend the best fit based on roof pitch, layout, and budget.
How long does a metal roof last in the Southeast?
Lifespan depends on panel type, coatings, installation quality, and exposure conditions. With proper underlayment, flashing, ventilation, and correct fastening details, metal roofing is known for long service life compared to many traditional options. We’ll explain realistic expectations for your specific system and environment.
Is metal roofing noisy during rain?
In a properly built residential roof assembly—solid decking, quality underlayment, and normal attic insulation—metal roofing is typically not “loud.” Most noise complaints come from older agricultural buildings where metal is installed over open framing. With modern residential installation, sound levels are generally comparable to other roof types.
Does metal roofing help with energy efficiency?
It can. Many metal systems use reflective finishes that reduce heat gain, and proper ventilation design plays a major role in attic temperature and HVAC workload. We look at both the roof system and the ventilation approach so you get real performance improvements—not just a material change.
Can metal roofing be installed over existing shingles?
Sometimes it’s possible, but it isn’t always the best choice. A full tear-off allows the deck to be inspected, improves underlayment quality, and helps ensure ventilation and details are correct—especially if you’re investing in a long-term system. During your estimate, we’ll explain what your roof allows and what provides the best long-term result.
What maintenance does a metal roof need?
Metal roofing is generally low maintenance. The key is keeping valleys and gutters clear, checking flashing and penetrations periodically, and addressing any minor coating scratches (rare) before they become issues. Exposed-fastener systems may need occasional fastener checks over time, while standing seam typically requires less routine attention.
