FAQs
How do I know if my Apison home needs a full roof replacement instead of repairs?
Several warning signs point toward replacement: shingles that are curling, cracked, or missing in multiple areas; widespread granule loss exposing the asphalt beneath; leaks in more than one location; sagging roof decking; and roofs older than 20–25 years (or 15–20 for 3-tab shingles) that have already undergone multiple repairs. Our free inspection includes attic evaluation, moisture testing, and photographic documentation so you can make an informed decision.
What roofing materials do you offer for replacements and which is best for Apison’s climate?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, metal panels (standing seam and exposed-fastener), synthetic slate, and designer composite shingles. For most Apison homeowners, architectural shingles or metal roofing provide the best balance of cost, durability, and curb appeal. Architectural shingles resist high winds up to 130 mph and offer Class A fire ratings. Metal roofs have a 50-year life expectancy, reflect radiant heat in hot Tennessee summers, and shed heavy rain quickly during spring storms.
How long will my roof replacement take and how disruptive is the process?
A typical single-family home in Apison takes 1–2 days for shingle replacement and 2–3 days for metal, depending on weather and roof complexity. We schedule material delivery the evening before, protect landscaping with tarps, use catch-all netting for debris, and perform a magnetic nail sweep daily. Most projects begin at 7:30 a.m. and we clean up by 5 p.m., allowing you to stay in your home throughout the process with minimal disruption.
Do I need a permit for roof replacement in Apison, and will you handle it?
Yes. Hamilton County requires a residential roofing permit when more than 25 % of the roof covering is replaced. As a licensed and insured contractor, we pull the permit, schedule any required inspections, and ensure the job meets the current 2021 International Residential Code adopted by the county. Permit fees and inspection coordination are included in your written proposal—no surprises.
Can you help with insurance claims for storm damage to my roof?
Absolutely. If hail or wind has damaged your roof, we provide a detailed storm report, photos, and an itemized estimate using Xactimate—the same software most insurers use. We meet your adjuster on-site, review findings line-by-line, and advocate for code-required items such as drip edge, ice-and-water shield in valleys, and ventilation upgrades. Our goal is to maximize your claim coverage while keeping you informed at every step.
What warranties and maintenance plans do you offer after the replacement is complete?
You receive a dual warranty package: (1) the manufacturer’s limited lifetime material warranty (50 years non-pro-rated on architectural shingles or 40 years on metal panels) and (2) our 10-year workmanship warranty covering leaks due to installation errors. For added peace of mind, we offer an optional annual maintenance plan that includes gutter cleaning, roof surface inspection, caulk renewal, and a written health report—extending the life of your new roof and preserving warranty eligibility.
