What our customers say
FAQs
What roofing materials work best for homes in Loudon?
Because Loudon experiences hot, humid summers, occasional heavy storms, and cold winters, we usually recommend architectural asphalt shingles, metal roofing, or synthetic slate. Architectural shingles handle temperature swings well and are the most budget-friendly. Standing-seam metal roofs last 40–60 years, reflect sunlight to lower cooling costs, and resist hail. Synthetic slate gives a premium look without the weight of real slate and is rated for winds up to 110 mph—ideal for the occasional strong storm fronts that pass through Loudon.
How can I tell whether my roof needs repair or full replacement?
Warning signs include curled or missing shingles, granules in gutters, dark streaks or algae growth, interior ceiling stains, and daylight showing in the attic. If the roof is 15–20 years old and more than 25 % of the surface shows these issues, replacement is usually more cost-effective than repeated spot repairs. We offer free inspections in Loudon and use drones and moisture-scanning cameras to determine the exact condition before recommending a solution.
What is the average cost of a new roof in Loudon?
Costs vary by material, roof size, and roof pitch. In 2024, architectural asphalt shingle replacements in Loudon average $4.25–$6.75 per square foot fully installed, while standing-seam metal runs $8–$12 per square foot. A 2,000-square-foot roof would therefore cost roughly $8,500–$13,500 for shingles or $16,000–$24,000 for metal. We provide itemized written estimates and can suggest financing options to fit most budgets.
How long does a typical roof installation take?
For a standard single-family home of 2,000–3,000 square feet, an asphalt shingle tear-off and replacement usually takes 1–2 days, weather permitting. Metal or synthetic slate systems can take 3–5 days because of specialized panels and trim work. Our Loudon crews arrive by 7:30 a.m., work under strict safety guidelines, and perform a thorough magnetic nail sweep each evening to keep your property clean.
Do I need a permit for roofing work in Loudon, and who handles it?
Yes. Loudon County requires permits for any roof replacement or structural repair. As a licensed local contractor, we pull all necessary permits, schedule inspections, and ensure your new roof meets the latest International Residential Code (IRC) and local wind-uplift standards. Permit fees are included in our quote, so you never have to visit the county office yourself.
What warranties and maintenance plans do you offer?
Manufacturer material warranties range from 25-year limited to lifetime coverage, depending on the product chosen. Because we are a certified installer for GAF, CertainTeed, and Drexel Metals, we can register enhanced non-pro-rated warranties of up to 50 years. Our workmanship is covered for 10 years, and we offer optional annual maintenance packages that include gutter cleaning, sealant touch-ups, and a full inspection—helping you catch minor issues before they become costly repairs.
