Metal roofing in Temple, TX

Temple has spent the last two years learning what Central Texas weather can do. On May 22, 2024, an EF-2 tornado with roughly 120 mph winds tore through west Temple, damaging or destroying about 500 homes and businesses in a single afternoon — and Bell County's hail record is even harder: NOAA logs 103 hail events with stones up to 5.68 inches since 2018. For one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas, that's a lot of roofs on the insurance treadmill.

A Class 4 (UL 2218) metal roof is engineered for exactly this. The highest impact rating made takes the hail that writes off shingles, and mechanically-seamed panels hold against straight-line and tornado-band winds far better than nailed tabs. Reflective coatings cut the summer cooling load, and the system lasts 40–70 years. In a market adding homes as fast as Temple, it's the roof you install once.
