FAQs
Why should I choose an insured roofing contractor for my roof replacement in Shelbyville?
Hiring an insured roofer protects you from liability and gives you recourse if something goes wrong. General liability insurance covers accidental damage to your home or a neighbor’s property, while workers’ compensation protects you from medical costs if a crew member is injured on your jobsite. Shelbyville building permits require proof of insurance before a contractor can legally perform a roof replacement, so working with a fully insured company keeps your project compliant with local regulations and provides peace of mind.
What signs indicate I need a full roof replacement rather than a repair?
If your roof is 20–25 years old, has widespread shingle curling or loss of granules, shows daylight through the decking in your attic, or is leaking in multiple areas, a full replacement is usually more cost-effective than repeated repairs. In Shelbyville’s humid summers and occasional winter freeze–thaw cycles, trapped moisture can accelerate decking rot and mold growth—issues that patchwork fixes won’t solve. A professional inspection will reveal whether structural decking or underlayment has deteriorated to the point where a new roof is the safest option.
How long does a typical roof replacement take for an average Shelbyville home?
Most single-family homes (1,500–3,000 sq. ft.) can be completed in one to three days, weather permitting. The timeline includes delivery of materials, tear-off, decking repairs, installation of underlayment and flashing, shingle or metal panel installation, and a thorough site clean-up with magnetic nail sweep. Larger or complex roofs, unforeseen decking damage, or rain delays can add a day or two, but your project manager will provide an updated schedule if conditions change.
What roofing materials are best suited for Shelbyville’s climate?
Architectural asphalt shingles remain popular due to their cost-effectiveness, Class A fire rating, and wind resistance up to 130 mph—important during spring storms. Metal roofing (steel or aluminum) is gaining favor for its 40- to 70-year lifespan, energy efficiency, and ability to shed snow quickly during cold snaps. For low-slope sections or porches, a modified bitumen or TPO membrane prevents standing-water leaks. We’ll discuss each option’s upfront cost, maintenance needs, and aesthetic appeal to help you choose the best match for Shelbyville’s hot summers, humid conditions, and occasional severe weather.
Will my homeowners insurance cover the cost of a roof replacement?
Most policies cover storm-related damage (hail, wind, falling debris) but not normal wear and tear or an end-of-life roof. After a storm, document visible damage with photos and contact your insurer quickly—Tennessee policies often require filing a claim within one year of the event. Our licensed inspectors can provide a written report, meet with the adjuster on-site, and supply the detailed estimate your carrier needs. If the claim is approved, you will typically pay only your deductible, while the insurer pays the balance up to policy limits. We can also finance any upgrades you choose that aren’t covered, such as upgrading from 3-tab to architectural shingles.
What warranties and post-installation support do you offer on a new roof?
You receive two layers of protection. First, the manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty covers defects in the shingles or metal panels themselves—some brands now offer 50-year non-prorated coverage when installed by a certified contractor like us. Second, our 10-year workmanship warranty covers installation-related issues such as leaks due to improper flashing or fastening. We conduct a free annual roof check for the first three years and remain on call for any concerns. All warranty documents and maintenance guidelines are provided at project completion, ensuring your Shelbyville home stays protected for decades.
