Lifetime Warranty Metal Roof in Nashville

Every metal roof we install carries two warranties, one from the manufacturer who makes the steel, and one from us, the family that shapes it, fastens it, and stands behind it. The manufacturer's warranty covers the material. Ours covers the work. Together, they mean that the roof over your head is protected from every direction for as long as you own the home.

Layer One

TMR Workmanship Warranty

The manufacturer's warranty covers the metal itself — the substrate that gives the panel its structural strength, the coating system that protects it from UV and corrosion, and the color that defines its appearance for decades. These warranties are issued by the steel manufacturer and backed by their financial standing. They travel with the material regardless of who installs it — but certified contractor installation is required for full system warranty coverage.

40
Years · Non-Prorated

Substrate (Galvalume® AZ50)

Full replacement. Non-prorated. The Galvalume substrate — 55% aluminum, 43.4% zinc, 1.6% silicon — is the structural core of every standing seam panel we install. It self-heals at the molecular level. Cut edges, scratches, and minor abrasions re-seal themselves as the zinc-aluminum alloy migrates to protect exposed steel. Fifty years of structural integrity guaranteed without proration.

40
Years

PVDF Coating (Kynar 500®)

The paint system that protects the substrate from ultraviolet radiation, chemical exposure, and environmental degradation. 70%+ polyvinylidene fluoride resin bonded to the metal surface through a carbon-fluorine molecular bond — one of the strongest bonds in organic chemistry. The same coating technology used on One World Trade Center, commercial aircraft, and the most demanding architectural applications on earth.

35
Years · Non-Prorated

Chalk & Fade Resistance

Color retention guarantee. The PVDF coating system maintains its original color within ≤5 ΔE fade specification for 35 years — meaning the difference between the original color and the aged color remains imperceptible to the human eye for over three decades of Nashville sun, rain, and thermal cycling. Your roof looks the color you chose, year after year.

20
Years

Weathertight System

Full system leak protection covering the installed panel system — panels, flashings, trim, and accessories — against water intrusion caused by manufacturing defects. Certified contractor installation required. This is the manufacturer's guarantee that their complete system, installed to their specifications by a qualified contractor, will keep water out for a minimum of twenty years.

Layer Two

TMR Workmanship Warranty

The manufacturer's warranty covers what the metal does. Our workmanship warranty covers what we do — every cut, every seam, every flashing, every fastener, every trim termination, every detail from eave to ridge. If anything we installed ever fails because of how we installed it, we come back and fix it. At our expense. In year one and in year forty-one.

Lifetime Coverage

Panel Installation

Alignment, attachment, fit — all labor included. Every panel we install is covered for the full duration of your ownership. If a panel shifts, loosens, or fails to perform because of how we installed it, we repair it at no cost to you.

Lifetime Coverage

Flashing & Trim

Walls, chimneys, penetrations, drip edge, rake, ridge, gable — every flashing and trim piece on your roof. These are the details that separate a good metal roof from a great one, and they are covered for as long as you own the home.

Lifetime Coverage · $0 Deductible

Leak-Free Guarantee

If it leaks due to our workmanship, we fix it. Zero deductible. No service call fee. No diagnostic charge. No "first $250 is on you." Zero dollars. This is not a limited guarantee — it is a promise backed by a company that has been in Nashville for over twenty years and is not going anywhere.

Lifetime Coverage · Non-Prorated

Seam Integrity

360° lock engagement on every standing seam. Non-prorated — year one and year forty-one carry the same obligation. The seam is the defining feature of a standing seam roof. If a seam we engaged ever opens because of how we engaged it, we come back and close it. At our expense.

Definition

What "Lifetime" Actually Means

Our lifetime workmanship warranty covers the original homeowner for the duration of their ownership. No sliding scale. No deductible. No fine print that reduces coverage over time. If something we installed fails because of how we installed it, we come back and fix it at our expense. In year one and in year forty-one.

§1

Full Coverage

If anything we installed ever fails because of how we installed it — a flashing that lifts, a seam that opens, a panel that shifts — we come back and fix it. A complete repair at our expense.

Your Part

Your Responsibilities

✦ To Keep Your Warranty Active
  • Keep gutters clear— debris-clogged gutters cause water to back up under the roof edge, which is not a roofing failure but a maintenance failure
  • Trim overhanging limbs— branches that rub on metal panels wear through the coating and create scratches that are not covered as workmanship defects
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or pressure-washing— the factory coating is designed to be cleaned by rain. Harsh chemicals and high-pressure water damage the finish
  • Contact us before adding new roof penetrations— satellite dishes, solar panels, HVAC equipment, vents, or any other penetration should be coordinated with us to maintain warranty coverage
  • Complete final payment to register your warranty— your written warranty is issued upon project completion and final payment
Claims

How to Make a Claim

1

Step 1 — Contact Us

Call (615) 649-5002 or email info@themetalroofers.com with your name, address, installation date, and a description of the concern. Photos are helpful but not required.

2

Step 2 — Inspection

We schedule a roof inspection — typically within one week of your call, sooner for active leaks. We get on the roof, assess the concern, and determine whether it falls under workmanship warranty, manufacturer warranty, or neither.

3

Step 3 — Repair

If the issue is our workmanship, we perform the repair at no cost to you. We document the repair with photos and update your warranty file. If the issue falls under the manufacturer's warranty, we coordinate the claim process on your behalf. If the issue is neither — storm damage, external modification, maintenance-related — we tell you honestly and provide a fair estimate for the repair.

We do not look for reasons to deny warranty claims. We look for reasons to honor them. The warranty is our promise. Keeping it is our reputation.
