FAQs
What are the main advantages of choosing asphalt shingles for my home in Allardt?
Asphalt shingles deliver an excellent balance of affordability, durability, and curb appeal. They are cost-effective compared with metal, tile, or slate, yet still give you 20–30 years of reliable service when installed correctly. Modern architectural shingles come in dozens of colors and profiles that mimic high-end materials, making it easy to match the historic and rustic styles common around Allardt. They’re also lightweight, so most homes do not require structural upgrades, and repairs are straightforward because individual shingles can be replaced without disturbing the whole roof.
How long can I expect an asphalt shingle roof to last in the Cumberland Plateau climate?
In Allardt’s mix of hot, humid summers and occasional winter freezes, high-quality architectural asphalt shingles typically last 25–30 years. Three-tab shingles average 18–22 years. Longevity depends on factors such as proper attic ventilation, routine maintenance, and prompt storm-damage repairs. Choosing algae-resistant shingles and professional installation (like our Roofing Done Right process) maximizes service life.
What does your "Roofing Done Right" installation process involve?
1. Free on-site inspection and detailed written estimate. 2. Complete tear-off down to the decking—no "roof-over" shortcuts. 3. Decking repairs or replacement of any rotten wood. 4. Installation of ice & water shield in valleys and at eaves, plus synthetic underlayment across the field. 5. New drip edge, starter course, and high-wind rated architectural shingles secured with six nails each. 6. Proper flashing around chimneys, walls, and penetrations using corrosion-resistant metal. 7. Ridge vent or other code-compliant ventilation to keep attics cooler and prevent moisture buildup. 8. Magnetic sweep and full job-site cleanup. 9. Final walkthrough with the homeowner and delivery of warranty documents.
Can asphalt shingles withstand the high winds and heavy rains we sometimes get in Fentress County?
Yes. We install shingles that carry a 130 mph wind rating when paired with the correct starter strip and six-nail pattern. The self-sealing asphalt strips bond tightly after a few sunny days, forming a watertight barrier. For valleys and eaves where water pressure is highest, we apply peel-and-stick ice & water membrane. Proper attic ventilation and flashing further protect against wind-driven rain infiltration, giving you peace of mind during those strong Cumberland Plateau storms.
How much does a new asphalt roof cost in the Allardt area?
Prices vary with roof size, pitch, and shingle style, but most Allardt homeowners invest between $4.25 and $6.75 per square foot for a complete tear-off and replacement using architectural shingles. That figure includes materials, labor, disposal, permits, and our 10-point quality inspection. We provide transparent, itemized estimates and offer financing options to spread the cost over manageable monthly payments.
Do you offer any warranties or maintenance plans for asphalt shingle roofs?
Absolutely. Our manufacturer-backed limited lifetime warranty covers shingle defects for up to 50 years, and our 10-year workmanship guarantee protects you against installation-related issues. We also provide an optional annual maintenance plan that includes roof-surface cleaning, gutter flushing, sealant touch-ups, and a photographic inspection report, all at a discounted rate for customers in the Allardt and greater Fentress County area.
