ProVia routes homeowners to dealers and installers through the Where to Buy locator on provia.com and works with roofing contractors through its Metal Roofing Partnerships program. We are the installing end of that pipeline in Middle Tennessee: The Metal Roofers, metal-only since 2003, TN License #75515, BBB A+ accredited, 4.9 stars across 150+ Google reviews. The reason an installer's guide beats a brochure is simple: a brochure shows you Bronzewood in studio light, while our records of 10,000+ metal roof repairs and 1,000+ replacements show us how stamped-steel roofs actually behave through Tennessee hail seasons and 40 to 60 year service lives, and which install decisions, screw counts included, decide the outcome. We service what we install, so we have no reason to oversell any panel.
Thirteen sections follow: the quick answer, the Sugarcreek, Ohio story, one deep section on each of the three profiles, the color and trim program, the Kynar 500 finish science, the warranty translated into plain English, which Tennessee houses fit, ProVia against the rest of our lineup, installed pricing with a worked example, our install method, and eleven straight answers. A square means 100 square feet of roof area, and every dimension here comes from ProVia's published specification and installation documents.
ProVia · Coated Steel Tile
ProVia stamps 26-gauge steel into a cascading Spanish-barrel profile, then finishes it with a Kynar 500 ceramic matte coat and a resin topcoat. Tongue-and-groove panels lock together over hidden fasteners, with no exposed screws. All four colors are shown below.
ProVia barrel tile is Kynar-coated stamped steel, not stone-coated: a low-sheen matte finish with a resin topcoat that resists algae and mildew, and about three times lighter than clay tile. We bring physical samples in your top colors before anything is ordered.
ProVia · Metal Slate
ProVia's metal slate stamps galvanized steel into a dimensional slate profile, with a printed and stamped finish so panels read like quarried slate at a fraction of the weight. The GalvaTec finish resists fading, chalking, and corrosion, and each color pairs with coordinating trim. Five colors.
I
Three Profiles, One Steel, $850 to $1,500 Per Square Installed
ProVia metal roofing is stamped 26-gauge G90 zinc-galvanized steel, described by the manufacturer as up to 30 percent thicker than other comparable roofing products, finished with the GalvaTec system topped by Fluropon Kynar 500, a 70 percent PVDF coating. All three profiles rate UL 2218 Class 4 for impact and Class A for fire per ASTM E108, pass for Florida high-velocity hurricane zones, and fasten with concealed screws. The shake and slate panels reach Class 90 wind uplift, 180 mph, on the 7-screw pattern, and the whole line runs up to 67 percent lighter than asphalt shingles. It fits Nashville homeowners who want shake, slate, or barrel-tile looks in designer color with measured fade limits.
Where a ProVia bid lands inside $850 to $1,500 per square depends on profile and roof shape: Barrel Tile's two-course and four-course panel formats price differently than the flat-packed shake and slate, and a roof with many hips and valleys eats more trim than a simple gable. In our field data, stamped metal shingle systems run 40 to 60 years in Tennessee service, so the choice you are really making is which look you want to live with for four decades or more.
Metal Shake carries an authentic split-shake woodgrain on a 50-1/2 by 13-7/8 inch panel, about 24 panels per square. Metal Slate carries quarried slate foliation and a cast slate texture embossed into the same panel format. Metal Barrel Tile is the Spanish clay look with a 5/8 inch reveal, sold in two-course and four-course panels, with Tri-Pigment Reflective Technology that reflects more than 70 percent of solar heat.
All three ProVia profiles quote inside our stamped metal shingle schedule of $850 to $1,500 per square installed. A typical 2,000 square foot roof is 20 squares, so the honest budget is about $17,000 to $30,000 with tear-off, underlayment, flashings, and cleanup included in the written figure.
Worked example: a 2,000 square foot Metal Shake roof at a mid-schedule $1,150 per square, used for illustration, comes to about $23,000 installed. That roof needs roughly 480 panels, 24 per square across 20 squares, which ProVia ships 12 to a box at 54 to 56 pounds per box, about 40 boxes of material. Numbers like that are why we quote from your measured roof rather than a square-footage guess: panel count, screw pattern, and trim length all come off the tape measure.
The sections below go one layer deeper: who ProVia is, what each profile actually is dimension by dimension, what Kynar 500 chemistry promises in writing, and where this line beats, or loses to, the rest of our lineup.
II
A Family-Owned Maker of the Whole House Exterior
ProVia has been privately held by the Mullet family since its founding in 1977, headquartered at 2150 State Route 39 in Sugarcreek, Ohio, with more than 2,800 US employees. It is not only a roofing company: ProVia manufactures entry doors, storm doors, windows, vinyl siding, manufactured stone, and, since 2020, stamped metal roofing, under the brand philosophy it calls The Professional Way. For a homeowner, that breadth means the company warranting your roof also stands behind products across the rest of the exterior, and has for almost fifty years.
The manufacturing footprint is concrete: seven facilities, Walnut Creek, Sugarcreek, Baltic, Cherry Ridge, Strasburg, and New Philadelphia in Ohio plus Booneville, Mississippi, with a Dalton, Ohio facility announced for 2026. Metal roofing joined the catalog in 2020, engineered with the same finish partners the company uses across its exterior lines.
Warranty service is a decades-long relationship, and the counterparty matters. ProVia's metal roofing warranty is non-prorated and runs to 50 years from installation for subsequent owners, which is only worth something if the company is still family-owned, still solvent, and still answering the phone in 2066. A privately held manufacturer that has grown for almost five decades without changing hands is about as stable as counterparties get in this industry.
Supply matters too. ProVia manufactures in Ohio and ships nationally through its dealer network, and because the same maker produces the whole exterior line, accessory and service questions route to one manufacturer instead of three. When a repair needs a matching Bronzewood panel in year 14, there is one company to call, and we do the calling.
There is also a documentation benefit we lean on constantly: ProVia publishes its specification brochure, installation guide, and warranty PDF in public. When an HOA board or building department wants proof behind a claim, we hand over the manufacturer's own documents, screw patterns, wind classes, fade limits, instead of a salesman's summary.
One provenance nuance stated plainly: ProVia's roofing is American-made in a category full of imports. The steel is G90 zinc-galvanized to US standards, the panels are stamped by a US workforce, and the company publishes which of its facilities make what. If made-in-USA sits high on your list, this is the line in our stamped-steel lineup that answers it most directly.
III
About 24 Panels Per Square, Locked on Four Sides
Metal Shake is a 26-gauge G90 zinc-galvanized steel panel stamped with an authentic split-shake woodgrain, on steel the manufacturer describes as up to 30 percent thicker than comparable roofing products. Panels run 50-1/2 by 13-7/8 inches with a 50 by 12 inch exposure, about 24 panels to the square, shipped 12 to a box at 54 to 56 pounds per box. The whole assembly lands up to 67 percent lighter than asphalt shingles.
The engineering is in the edges. Each panel locks on all four sides with ProVia's exclusive multi-point locking system and fastens with hidden #10 by 1 inch hex-head screws through a factory pre-drilled flange, into at least 1/2 inch of sheathing, with a recessed water-stop damming feature formed into the panel. Screw count sets the engineered wind class: four screws rates Class 30 at 120 mph, five rates Class 60 at 160, seven rates Class 90 at 180 mph. The wind number on your roof is a deliberate spec, not crew habit.
On Tennessee streets, Metal Shake reads as dimensional wood texture with staggered coursing, at home on craftsman, cottage, and traditional two-story stock where cedar would look right but cedar maintenance would not. Because the texture is stamped and the color is baked-on PVDF, the roof holds its look without the graying, splitting, or moss that puts real shake on a maintenance calendar.
The five Metal Shake colors are wood tones by design: Briarwood, Saddlewood, Pepperwood, Shadewood, and Bronzewood, the newest of the five. All carry solar-reflective pigments under ProVia's Cool Roof certification, and all are covered by the written 40-year chalk and fade limits described in the warranty section below.
Practical math for a 2,000 square foot roof: about 480 panels, 40 boxes, roughly 2,200 pounds of material at the published box weights, spread across 20 squares of roof. Compare that with the several-times-heavier asphalt roof it replaces and you understand why crews can stage Metal Shake without special equipment and why the structure never notices the change.
IV
Cast Slate Embossing, Cool Roof Pigments, Same 4-Way Lock
Metal Slate uses the same 26-gauge G90 panel format as the shake, 50-1/2 by 13-7/8 inches with a 50 by 12 inch exposure, but the die is different: ProVia stamps it with what it calls Authentic Quarried Slate Foliation, a cast slate texture embossed into the steel so the surface carries real relief, not a printed shadow. From the yard it reads as a slate roof; from the framing's point of view it is up to 67 percent lighter than asphalt shingles, and nothing like the multi-hundred-pound squares of the quarried stone it resembles.
Installation follows ProVia's published guide: panels go direct to a solid deck, 1/2 inch plywood, 15/32 inch OSB, or 3/4 inch board sheathing, laid left to right, eave to ridge, over synthetic underlayment at 4:12 and steeper or self-adhered membrane down to 3:12, with ice-and-water protection at eaves, valleys, and penetrations. The same 4-way multi-point lock and pre-drilled flange carry the same screw-count wind classes, up to Class 90 at 180 mph with seven screws per panel.
The five slate colors are stone tones: Coalstone, Larkstone, Lodgestone, Ironstone, and Baystone. On Tennessee brick colonials, Coalstone and Ironstone read closest to historic slate, while Baystone and Larkstone lighten the roofline for painted-brick and farmhouse exteriors. We compare them in daylight, because stone tones shift with the sky.
ProVia · Metal Slate
ProVia's metal slate stamps galvanized steel into a dimensional slate profile, with a printed and stamped finish so panels read like quarried slate at a fraction of the weight.
The GalvaTec finish resists fading, chalking, and corrosion, and each color pairs with coordinating trim.
V
Two-Course and Four-Course Panels, Tri-Pigment Finish
Metal Barrel Tile is ProVia's Spanish clay profile: a G90 steel core with zinc phosphate anti-corrosive coating on both sides under a Kynar 500 ceramic pigmented finish. The barrels carry a 5/8 inch reveal, and panels ship in two formats, 2-course at 8 pieces per 26-pound box and 4-course at 8 pieces per 53-pound box.
The finish does measurable work here: Tri-Pigment Reflective Technology reflects more than 70 percent of solar heat, which is exactly what you want under a Tennessee summer sun on a profile whose real-clay ancestors were prized for keeping houses cool. Fastening is fully concealed, and the panel runs significantly lighter than the clay tile it replaces, light enough that no additional structural support is needed, per ProVia's specification.
Ratings run with the rest of the line: UL 2218 Class 4 impact, Class A fire per ASTM E108, an ASTM B117 corrosion pass, and a Florida high-velocity hurricane zone pass that applies to all three ProVia profiles. Those are test-bench credentials far beyond anything Middle Tennessee weather will demand of a roof.
On the street, Barrel Tile belongs on stucco, Mediterranean, and Spanish-influenced builds, and it is the profile we quote when an owner loves the look of clay but not the weight, the breakage, or the structural letter a real tile roof can require. The metal version delivers the coursing shadow and the barrel rhythm at a fraction of the load.
Barrel Tile runs four colors: Terracotta, the classic fired-clay orange; Mocha and Auburn, the browns that settle into brick and stone exteriors; and Jade, a patina green that reads like aged copper roofing from the street. Four colors is a short list, and that is worth knowing early: if your palette lives in grays, the slate profile serves it better.
A format note that shows up in bids: because the 4-course panel covers twice the coursing of the 2-course per piece, simple planes go faster in 4-course while cut-up sections and details lean on 2-course pieces. The mix is a line item we set at measurement, and it is one of the quiet reasons two Barrel Tile quotes on different houses can sit at different points inside the same published range.
VI
Fourteen Named Colors Across Three Profiles
ProVia's palette is fourteen named colors: five shake wood tones, Briarwood, Saddlewood, Pepperwood, Shadewood, and Bronzewood; five slate stone tones, Coalstone, Larkstone, Lodgestone, Ironstone, and Baystone; and four barrel clay tones, Terracotta, Mocha, Auburn, and Jade. The names are a map: woods end in wood, slates in stone.
Every color rides on the same chemistry, Fluropon Kynar 500 at 70 percent PVDF with solar-reflective pigments, which is why ProVia can put fade and chalk limits in writing, 5 Hunter delta-E units and a number 8 chalk rating over 40 years, instead of promising that a color simply lasts. A measured limit is a different kind of promise than an adjective.
Color choice is where profile choice quietly gets made. If your exterior needs a gray, the slate palette carries the grays; if it needs wood warmth, the shake palette owns it; if it needs fired clay or patina green, Barrel Tile is the only profile with Terracotta and Jade. We put the actual panels on your driveway at the free assessment and view them in daylight, because a PVDF finish reads differently under open sky than under showroom lighting, and because an HOA board will see the roof under sky, not under fluorescents.
Trim is the half of the program most quotes skip. Ridge, hip, eave, rake, and valley details on a stamped-steel roof are finished in matching coated steel, formed to the roof's actual measurements, and a cut-up roofline can carry hundreds of linear feet of it. When you compare ProVia bids, confirm the trim scope is inside the number, because detail metal is where stamped roofs are won or lost, both visually and against weather.
For HOA submittals we package the color program the way boards want it: the named color sample, the profile drawing, the Class A fire and Class 4 impact documentation, and the Cool Roof certification for communities with reflectivity language in their covenants. Specific names and numbers, Shadewood, Class 90, 40 years, get approved; vague swatches get tabled.
One scheduling note: all fourteen colors are standard program colors, and Bronzewood is the newest addition to the shake palette. We confirm current availability for your profile at the assessment, then order only after you have approved the physical sample in daylight, so the color that arrives is the color you chose.
VII
GalvaTec, 70 Percent PVDF, and Limits Written as Numbers
Start with the substrate: 26-gauge steel, hot-dip galvanized to G90, meaning a heavier zinc coating class than lighter G-ratings, and described by ProVia as up to 30 percent thicker steel than comparable products. On Barrel Tile the core adds a zinc phosphate anti-corrosive layer on both sides. Thickness is not a vanity spec: it is dent resistance under hail, stiffness under foot traffic, and screw-holding strength at the flange.
Over the zinc comes the GalvaTec finish system, finished with Fluropon Kynar 500, a 70 percent PVDF resin coating. PVDF is the finish class used where color has to survive decades of UV, and the 70 percent resin ratio is the full-strength grade, not a diluted blend.
Paint fails two ways on a roof: it fades, a color shift, and it chalks, a powdery surface breakdown. ProVia's warranty converts both into numbers: fade limited to 5 Hunter delta-E units and chalk to a maximum number 8 rating, both over 40 years, with coating film integrity covered for the same 40 years. Tennessee roofs take hard southern sun; a measured 40-year finish limit is the difference between a promise you can enforce and one you have to argue about.
The pigments themselves are solar-reflective, which earns the line Cool Roof certification, and Barrel Tile's Tri-Pigment Reflective Technology pushes past 70 percent solar heat reflection. Reflectivity is comfort and cooling load in July, and it is also a covenant checkbox in communities that regulate roof reflectance.
Corrosion is tested, not assumed: the assemblies pass ASTM B117 salt-spray testing, and the G90 zinc class plus the PVDF film is the stack doing that work. Between the steel gauge, the zinc, the primer system, and the fluoropolymer top coat, each layer has one job, and the warranty document assigns a number to each of them.
For the paperwork file: UL 2218 Class 4 impact, Class A fire per ASTM E108, wind uplift to Class 90, 180 mph, under TAS 125 testing with the 7-fastener pattern on shake and slate, ASTM B117 corrosion pass, Florida high-velocity hurricane zone pass on all three profiles, and Cool Roof certification. Nashville will never ask your roof for a hurricane-zone credential, which is exactly how we like our safety margins.
VIII
Non-Prorated, Automatic Transfer, 40-Year Chalk and Fade
ProVia's Lifetime Limited warranty, per the 2024 warranty document, is non-prorated and runs for as long as the original purchaser owns and occupies the home. Non-prorated is the phrase to underline: coverage does not shrink on a depreciation schedule as the roof ages, which is not the industry default.
The transfer terms are unusually strong, and they are the reason we bring this warranty up with owners who may sell: coverage transfers automatically to subsequent owners, no transfer fee window to hit, with coverage running to 50 years from the installation date. Add the measured limits, coating film integrity for 40 years, fade capped at 5 Hunter delta-E units, chalk capped at a number 8 rating, hail perforation covered per UL 2218 Class 4, and wind coverage to 180 mph, and register within 30 days of installation, which we build into our closeout.
ProVia's warranty covers the product: the steel, the coating, the color math. It does not cover workmanship, and workmanship is where most roof failures actually start. Our lifetime workmanship warranty covers the installation itself, flashing, fastening, and detail work, separately from and on top of ProVia's coverage.
Here is the stack in practice: if a panel's finish chalks past the written limit in year 22, that is a ProVia claim and we handle the documentation; if a valley detail weeps in year 22, that is ours under the workmanship warranty, no invoice. When you compare roofing bids, ask each company to put both halves in writing, the product terms and the labor terms. We do, and we have since 2003, across 10,000+ repairs and 1,000+ replacements.
IX
Streetscape, Weight, Pitch, and the HOA Packet
Match the profile to the architecture first. Metal Shake belongs on craftsman, cottage, and traditional stock where wood texture reads right. Metal Slate suits brick colonials, historic-leaning builds, and any street where a slate roof would flatter the block. Barrel Tile is the Mediterranean and stucco answer. All three read as traditional roofs from the sidewalk, which is precisely what architectural review boards in traditional neighborhoods are looking for when they turn down vertical-seam metal.
Weight is a non-issue by design: the line runs up to 67 percent lighter than asphalt shingles, and Barrel Tile is specified as needing no additional structural support, unlike the clay it imitates. If your house carries its current shingle roof, it carries ProVia with margin to spare, no engineering letter required.
Pitch has a published floor: 4:12 and steeper over synthetic underlayment, down to 3:12 over self-adhered membrane per ProVia's installation guide. Below 3:12, this is the wrong system and we will tell you so at the assessment. Most Nashville rooflines clear the bar easily; the exceptions are usually porch and addition tie-ins, which we measure rather than eyeball.
For HOA neighborhoods, we prepare the submittal packet ourselves: profile drawing, the named physical color sample, ProVia's specification sheet, the Class A and Class 4 documentation, and the wind-class engineering by screw pattern. Boards move fastest on packets where every claim carries a number, and this line's paperwork is unusually complete.
Who should probably not buy ProVia: owners chasing a long, uninterrupted modern panel look, which is standing seam's job, and owners of sub-3:12 roofs. Owners who want a gray barrel tile will also hit the palette's edge, four barrel colors, none gray. Everyone else in a traditional Tennessee streetscape is squarely inside this line's strengths.
X
Where the Ohio Line Wins, and Where It Does Not
Against standing seam: standing seam is vertical, modern, and continuous; ProVia is coursed, dimensional, and traditional. Performance credentials overlap heavily, Class 4 impact and engineered wind ratings on both, so the choice is architectural. Where a review board or a streetscape wants a roof that reads as shake, slate, or tile, ProVia wins the approval; where the house is contemporary, standing seam is the honest answer and we install it too.
Against the stone-coated line we install: the granule face carries deeper mineral texture and more weight; ProVia counters with designer color under written 40-year fade and chalk limits, automatic warranty transfer, and panels up to 67 percent lighter than asphalt.
We steer you toward ProVia when the written color warranty matters, no granule face publishes fade math like this; when resale is in your plans, because the warranty transfers automatically with 50-year coverage; when you want wind-class engineering you can specify by screw count; and when one American family-owned maker for the whole exterior appeals to you.
We steer you elsewhere when you want mineral texture you can feel from the ladder, the stone-coated line owns that; when the architecture demands seams; or when your color target is outside the fourteen-name palette. We bring competing samples to the same driveway visit and let daylight referee, because that decides it faster and more honestly than any comparison chart of ours.
Price will not make the choice for you: every stamped and stone-coated system we install quotes inside the same $850 to $1,500 per square schedule, with the spread coming from profile and roof geometry, not from the brand sticker. The decision is fit, finish, and warranty shape. That is on purpose.
XI
$850 to $1,500 Per Square, and What Moves the Number
ProVia installs at $850 to $1,500 per square on our current schedule, tear-off, underlayment, flashings, and cleanup included. A square is 100 square feet of roof surface, so a typical 2,000 square foot roof is 20 squares and budgets at $17,000 to $30,000 installed.
Four ProVia-specific drivers move a bid inside that range. Wind spec: the 7-screw Class 90 pattern uses nearly twice the fasteners of the 4-screw Class 30 pattern, and fastening time is real labor. Profile format: Barrel Tile's 2-course and 4-course mix takes more layout planning than the flat-packed shake and slate. Trim program: ridge, hip, rake, and valley metal is measured by the linear foot, and cut-up roofs carry a lot of feet. Underlayment: 3:12 sections require self-adhered membrane, which prices above synthetic.
Worked example, shown honestly: a 2,000 square foot Metal Shake roof on moderate geometry at $1,150 per square for illustration is about $23,000 installed, roughly 480 panels and 40 boxes of material plus formed trim. The same house in Barrel Tile with a heavy 2-course detail mix might press toward $1,300, about $26,000, while a simple slate gable specified at Class 60 can sit near $1,000, about $20,000. Financing options are available on approved credit, and we run the numbers beside the cash price at the estimate.
We publish $850 to $1,500 because that is what stamped-steel work actually spans on real roofs, and both ends are real: simple planes at standard wind spec reach the bottom, cut-up geometry at Class 90 with heavy trim reaches the top. What we will not do is print a smaller number that quietly excludes tear-off or trim to win a phone call. Every figure on this page is the installed, job-complete price.
Comparing ProVia bids? Ask three things: does the bid name the profile, color, and screw pattern, because Class 30 and Class 90 are different roofs in a windstorm; does the printed number include tear-off, underlayment, trim metal, and cleanup; and are both warranties stated in writing, ProVia's non-prorated product terms and the installer's workmanship coverage. Silence on any of the three is not a lower price. It is a smaller scope.
XII
Metal-Only Crews, Eave to Ridge, 3 to 7 Days
Our crews install metal roofing exclusively and have since 2003, which matters on a panel system with a published method: ProVia panels lay left to right, eave to ridge, each one locked into its neighbors on four sides and screwed through the factory-drilled flange. A system like that rewards a crew that has locked thousands of panels and knows what a properly seated 4-way lock feels like through the gloves.
The sequence follows the installation guide: full tear-off to the deck as standard, decking verified as solid, 1/2 inch plywood, 15/32 inch OSB, or 3/4 inch board, then underlayment by pitch, synthetic at 4:12 and steeper or self-adhered down to 3:12, with ice-and-water membrane at eaves, valleys, and penetrations. Panels fasten with hidden #10 by 1 inch hex-head screws to the wind class your quote specifies, and balanced intake and ridge ventilation is set up per the guide.
Most ProVia installs run 3 to 7 business days on site. Before any of it comes the free assessment: measurements, a pitch check against the 3:12 and 4:12 underlayment rules, and physical samples viewed in daylight on your driveway. If an HOA has to approve, our submittal packet goes in before anything is ordered, and the 30-day warranty registration goes in after completion as part of our closeout.
Every installation carries our lifetime workmanship warranty alongside ProVia's non-prorated product warranty, from a company with the receipts to back it: TN License #75515, BBB A+ accreditation, 4.9 stars across 150+ Google reviews, 10,000+ metal roof repairs, and 1,000+ metal roof replacements across Middle Tennessee. Call (615) 649-5002 for the free assessment, or use the estimate button and we will call you.

Eleven Straight Answers From the Install Side
ProVia installs inside our stamped metal shingle schedule of $850 to $1,500 per square, with tear-off, underlayment, flashings, and cleanup included. A typical 2,000 square foot roof runs about $17,000 to $30,000. Class 90 wind spec, heavy trim runs, and Barrel Tile course mixes bid toward the top; simple planes at standard spec press toward the bottom.
Stamped metal shingle systems run 40 to 60 years in our Middle Tennessee field data. ProVia's warranty backs that horizon in writing: non-prorated lifetime coverage for the original owner, 50 years from installation for subsequent owners, with coating film integrity covered for 40 years.
Yes. All three profiles rate UL 2218 Class 4, the highest impact class the test awards, and the warranty covers hail perforation per that standard. The 26-gauge G90 steel, described as up to 30 percent thicker than comparable products, is what resists denting, and it is one reason we quote this line freely in Middle Tennessee hail country.
Three: Metal Shake, a split-shake woodgrain; Metal Slate, quarried slate foliation with cast slate embossing; and Metal Barrel Tile, a Spanish clay profile with a 5/8 inch reveal sold in 2-course and 4-course panels. All are 26-gauge G90 steel with Kynar 500 finishes, and we install all three.
Fourteen named colors: Metal Shake in Briarwood, Saddlewood, Pepperwood, Shadewood, and Bronzewood; Metal Slate in Coalstone, Larkstone, Lodgestone, Ironstone, and Baystone; Barrel Tile in Terracotta, Mocha, Auburn, and Jade. We bring the physical samples to your driveway and choose in daylight.
Lighter, and by a wide margin: ProVia publishes the line as up to 67 percent lighter than asphalt shingles, and Barrel Tile needs no additional structural support despite its clay-tile look. Shake and slate panels ship 12 to a box at 54 to 56 pounds, which is why staging and handling never stress the structure or the schedule.
A non-prorated Lifetime Limited warranty for as long as the original purchaser owns and occupies the home, transferring automatically to later owners with coverage to 50 years from installation. Written limits include 40 years of coating film integrity, fade capped at 5 Hunter delta-E units, chalk capped at a number 8 rating, hail perforation per UL 2218 Class 4, and wind to 180 mph. Registration is due within 30 days of installation, and our lifetime workmanship warranty covers the install separately.
Usually, because every ProVia profile reads as a traditional roof, shake, slate, or barrel tile, from the street. We prepare the submittal packet ourselves: profile drawings, the named color sample, the spec sheet, Class A fire and Class 4 impact documentation, and Cool Roof certification where covenants care about reflectivity.
In the United States. ProVia is headquartered in Sugarcreek, Ohio, family-owned since 1977, with seven manufacturing facilities across Ohio and Mississippi and a Dalton, Ohio facility announced for 2026. Metal roofing joined its exterior lineup in 2020.
We do. The Metal Roofers is a metal-only company, TN License #75515, BBB A+ accredited, 4.9 stars across 150+ Google reviews, with 10,000+ metal roof repairs and 1,000+ metal roof replacements across Middle Tennessee since 2003. ProVia reaches homeowners through its Where to Buy dealer and installer network, and every roof we set carries our lifetime workmanship warranty on top of ProVia's product warranty. Call (615) 649-5002.
Different jobs. Standing seam is the vertical-panel answer for contemporary architecture and long simple planes. ProVia is the traditional answer, shake, slate, and barrel-tile profiles that clear review where vertical seams would not. Both are Class 4 steel systems we back with lifetime workmanship coverage; the house, covenants, and pitch decide.

ProVia has built the American home exterior since 1977; we have installed metal, and only metal, across Middle Tennessee since 2003. On your roof that partnership looks like 26-gauge G90 steel under Kynar 500 color, Class 4 impact resistance, wind engineering you can specify by screw count, a non-prorated warranty that transfers automatically, and lifetime workmanship coverage from the crew that installed it. The free assessment brings the samples to your driveway.

Pricing is half the decision. To pick the system behind the number, compare standing seam and metal shingles, then check the roof pitch guide to confirm your slope supports the panel you want. If a replacement is on the table, metal roof replacement covers the process end to end, a free inspection confirms whether the old roof is really done, and financing options spread the cost into monthly payments.
