Dove Gray Standing Seam Metal Roof Upgrade on Payne Loop | Johnson City, TN

Location: Payne Loop, Johnson City, TN 37604 Service Provided: Metal Roofing Branch: Johnson City, TN‍

Project Story

‍For this homeowner on Payne Loop in Johnson City, a 10-year-old roof should have been in its prime. Instead, it was showing signs of significant wear, including heavy granule loss and previous wind damage that required patching. Frustrated by the premature failure of the asphalt shingles, the homeowner asked for our professional opinion on a full replacement, along with a solution for her aging gutters.‍After assessing the single-story home, our Johnson City team provided a solution designed to end the worry of wind damage for good: a robust Standing Seam Metal roof. This upgrade transforms the home's defense system, swapping vulnerable shingles for interlocking steel panels.‍

Key Upgrades & Materials

‍We installed a roofing system engineered for maximum wind resistance and thermal performance.‍The project specifications included:

• Premium Metal Panels: We installed 24-gauge Standing Seam Metal Panels in the color Dove Gray. Unlike thinner materials, 24-gauge steel offers superior resistance to denting and oil-canning.

• Concealed Fasteners: We used Standing Seam Clips to secure the roof. This "hidden fastener" system means there are no exposed screws to back out or rust, which is a common leak point on cheaper metal roofs.

• Thermal Protection: Metal roofs generate higher heat than shingles. We installed High Heat Ice & Water Shield underneath the panels. This specialized underlayment is designed to withstand high temperatures without melting or degrading.

• Complex Flashing: We utilized a Split Boot and Z-Bar Trim to ensure watertight seals around penetrations and transitions where standard flashing often fails.

Why Standing Seam?

‍The homeowner had already experienced wind damage on her shingle roof. Standing seam metal roofs are aerodynamic and utilize a mechanical lock system that makes them virtually impervious to high winds. By choosing this system, the homeowner effectively "storm-proofed" her home against the harsh weather that destroyed her previous roof.‍
