FAQs
How do I know if my Briceville home really needs a full roof replacement instead of just repairs?
We begin every project with a free, no-obligation roof inspection that looks at shingle condition, flashing integrity, deck moisture, attic ventilation, and past storm damage. If more than 25–30 % of the shingles are compromised, there’s widespread granule loss, the decking is soft, or leaks are appearing in multiple areas, a full replacement is usually more cost-effective than repeated repairs. Our inspector will show you photos and a written condition report so you can make an informed decision.
What is the typical timeline for a roof replacement in Briceville?
For an average 2,000 sq ft asphalt-shingle roof, the on-site work usually takes 1–3 days. Day 1 is tear-off and deck inspection, day 2 is underlayment and shingle installation, and day 3 (if needed) is detail work and cleanup. Metal roofs can take an extra day for custom panel fabrication. Keep in mind that summer afternoon thunderstorms and winter freezes common in Anderson County may push us back a day—the timeline we give you already includes a weather buffer so there are no surprises.
Do I need to pull permits, or do you handle that?
We handle all permitting for you. Roof replacements in Briceville require a residential building permit through the Anderson County Building & Codes Department. Our team fills out the paperwork, pays the fee, schedules inspections, and provides you with copies for your records. There is nothing you need to do except grant us access when the county inspector arrives.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Briceville, and what factors affect the price?
Most asphalt-shingle replacements in Briceville range from $4.50 to $7.50 per square foot, putting a typical 2,000 sq ft roof between $9,000 and $15,000. Costs vary based on: (1) material choice (architectural shingles, designer shingles, standing-seam metal, etc.), (2) roof pitch and complexity, (3) plywood deck replacement if water-damaged, (4) disposal fees for tear-off debris, and (5) any code upgrades such as adding ice-and-water shield near eaves. We give you a detailed fixed-price proposal up front so you can budget with confidence.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover any part of the replacement?
If your roof was damaged by a covered peril—such as wind, hail, or falling debris—your insurance policy may pay for all or part of the new roof, minus your deductible. We offer complimentary insurance assistance: our team documents storm damage, meets your adjuster on site, and helps with supplements if the initial scope misses code-required items. If the roof is simply at the end of its useful life, insurers typically will not cover it, but we can discuss financing options in that case.
What kind of warranty do you provide, and how should I maintain my new roof?
Every replacement comes with two warranties: (1) the manufacturer’s material warranty—up to 30 years on architectural shingles and up to 50 years on premium shingles or metal panels; and (2) our 10-year transferable workmanship warranty covering installation defects and leaks. To keep both warranties in force, we recommend a quick visual inspection each spring and after major storms, cleaning gutters twice a year, and trimming back overhanging branches. We offer affordable annual maintenance plans if you’d like us to handle it for you.
