Frequently asked questions

How is the Perma-Roof attached to my roof?

The PERMA-ROOF system utilizes a perimeter bracket that is specifically designed to screw into the roofline of your current mobile home. This creates a sturdy framework that allows for the attachment of other materials.

What is roof rumble and will the Perma-Roof stop it?

If you've ever experienced the unsettling sound of roof-rumble during a storm, you know how frustrating and worrisome it can be. However, with the installation of PERMA-ROOF, you can say goodbye to this problem. Strong winds and heavy rains will no longer cause your factory metal roof to rumble, giving you greater peace of mind and comfort.

Why do you use a 29-gauge Steel?

Compared to rubber or aluminum, steel is a much stronger and more durable material. At Southern Builders, we use only the highest quality #1 Commercial Grade 29-gauge steel for our PERMA-ROOF system. This type of steel has an impressive Class 4 U.L. impact rating against hail damage. Over the years, we have replaced thousands of roofs from our competitors, and our PERMA-ROOF system has consistently proven to be superior and has stood the test of time.

What does my warranty cover?

At Southern Builders, we stand behind our products and installation services with a lifetime warranty. Our warranty guarantees that your mobile home will be free from leaks caused by defects in materials or workmanship for as long as you own it, regardless of the style of your home. You can have peace of mind knowing that our PERMA-ROOF system is built to last and will provide reliable protection for your mobile home.

How long does it take to install the roof?

In most cases, the installation of PERMA-ROOF on a mobile home can be completed in just one day. However, for certain double-wide mobile homes or if additional elements such as patio covers are being installed, it may require a second day to complete the installation. Our dedicated crews will work efficiently and effectively to ensure that your new roof is installed as quickly as possible, with minimal disruption to your daily routine.

Does the Perma-Roof provide an overhang?

Certainly. Each PERMA-ROOF installation includes around one-foot overhangs on the long sides and six-inch overhangs on the short sides of your mobile home. These overhangs provide additional protection for the sides, door seals, window seals, and other vulnerable areas that are prone to leakage in mobile homes.

Can I walk on my Perma-Roof?

Certainly. You can walk on your PERMA-ROOF safely whenever you need to perform cleaning or access your water cooler, among other things. The PERMA-ROOF is designed to be extremely durable, so it would require significant effort to cause any damage.

How do you clean the Perma-Roof?

Maintaining and cleaning your Perma-Roof is a simple task that can be done using a mild detergent, a water hose, and a soft bristle brush. Power washing is not necessary and is not recommended.

What is Perma-Roof?

The Perma-Roof is a permanent steel roof-over system designed exclusively for mobile homes, certified by an architect. It provides a lifetime solution for protecting your mobile home and comes with an approximate 12" overhang on the sides and an approximate 6" overhang on the ends, providing added protection where mobile homes often experience leaks. If your mobile home already has an overhang, the Perma-Roof will provide a slight overhang to accommodate the fascia trim.

How much does the Perma-Roof cost?

The cost of the Lifetime Perma-Roof may vary, and to provide an accurate estimate, we would need some information from you. Please complete the estimate form by clicking https://www.roofover.com/estimate/ and providing the necessary information.
