Roofing That Lasts Decades in Texas Weather

Don Hunter Roofing LLC installs and repairs metal roofing systems in Gainesville, Texas built for energy efficiency and durability.

Metal roofing reflects sunlight instead of absorbing it, which reduces attic heat and cooling costs during Gainesville summers. Unlike asphalt shingles that deteriorate over time, metal panels resist cracking, curling, and granule loss. Homeowners who want a roof that performs well through decades of heat, wind, and hail often choose metal for its longevity and low maintenance needs.

Don Hunter Roofing LLC installs properly fastened panels and flashing on residential and rural properties around Gainesville. The crew works with materials rated for high winds and heavy rain, ensuring panels stay secure during storms. Homeowners can compare metal roofing against traditional shingle options based on appearance, cost, and long-term performance before choosing the best fit for their home.

How metal roofing is installed and what changes afterward

Installation begins with removing old roofing materials and preparing the deck in Gainesville. The crew installs underlayment designed for metal systems, then fastens panels using screws with rubber washers to prevent leaks. Flashing is sealed around roof penetrations, and ridge caps are installed to complete the weatherproofing.

After installation, you will notice cooler attic temperatures during summer, quieter interior spaces during rain, and a roofline that holds its appearance without fading or granule loss. Metal roofing handles hail impacts without the denting common in older panel styles, and water runs off quickly during heavy storms.

Metal roofing reduces long-term maintenance needs and typically lasts forty to fifty years with minimal upkeep. The installation does not include structural reinforcement or attic ventilation upgrades unless specified. Don Hunter Roofing LLC helps homeowners determine if metal roofing fits their property style, budget, and performance goals.

What homeowners want to know about metal roofing

Homeowners considering metal roofing often ask about noise levels, energy savings, and how the material compares to shingles over time. These answers cover the questions that come up most during consultations.

How much energy does metal roofing save?
Metal roofing reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it, which can lower attic temperatures by ten to fifteen degrees. This reduces the load on your air conditioning system during summer months.
Is metal roofing loud during rain or hail?
Properly installed metal roofing with solid underlayment and attic insulation is not significantly louder than asphalt shingles. Most homeowners do not notice increased noise inside the home.
What colors and styles are available?
Metal roofing is available in standing seam and ribbed panel styles with colors that range from neutral tones to darker shades. Don Hunter Roofing LLC helps you choose options that match your home's appearance.
How does metal roofing handle hail?
Modern metal roofing resists denting from hail and wind-driven debris better than older panel types. Materials are rated for impact resistance and perform well in North Texas storm conditions.
Can metal roofing be installed over existing shingles?
In some cases, metal roofing can be installed over one layer of shingles if the deck is in good condition. This approach saves on tear-off costs but may not be suitable for all homes.
