FAQs
What flexible financing options are available for a roof replacement in Fountain City?
We partner with multiple local and national lenders to offer several plans, including 0% interest for 12–18 months, low-APR loans spread over 60–120 months, same-as-cash programs, and zero-down payment options. You can also bundle upgrades such as attic insulation or gutter replacement into the same loan, giving you one predictable monthly payment.
How do I know if I qualify for your roofing financing program?
The application is a quick online or in-person process that typically takes less than 10 minutes. A soft credit pull is used for pre-qualification, so there’s no impact on your score until you choose a loan. Most lenders look for a credit score of 580 or higher, proof of income or employment, and residency in Fountain City or the surrounding Knox County area. If your credit is challenged, we can explore co-signer, deferred-payment, or home-equity options to help you get approved.
Will financing a new roof hurt my credit score?
A soft inquiry for pre-qualification will not affect your credit. If you proceed, the lender performs a hard inquiry, which may cause a small, temporary dip—usually a few points. Making on-time payments can actually boost your credit over the life of the loan, because most lenders report positive payment history to the major bureaus.
Once financing is approved, how soon can my roof replacement begin?
In most cases we can schedule your roof replacement within 3–5 business days of loan approval. Because we’re local to Fountain City, we have standing relationships with suppliers and the Knox County permit office, so materials and permits are rarely a bottleneck. Emergency replacements after storm damage can often start within 24 hours when materials are in stock.
Are there incentives or rebates I can combine with financing?
Yes. ENERGY STAR–rated shingles may qualify for federal tax credits of up to 10% of material costs (check yearly caps). Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) energy-efficiency rebates change periodically but can further offset costs. If your new roof includes impact-resistant shingles, many insurers offer premium discounts. Our financing specialists will walk you through all current incentives during your free estimate.
What warranties and maintenance coverage come with a financed roof?
Financed or paid-in-full, you receive the same protection: a 30-, 40-, or 50-year manufacturer’s material warranty (depending on shingle line) plus our 10-year workmanship guarantee, both fully transferable if you sell your home. Annual roof inspections for the first three years are included at no charge, helping you keep the warranty valid and your investment protected.
