FAQs
How do I know if my Cosby home really needs a full roof replacement rather than repairs?
Our certified crews begin every project with a no-obligation inspection that looks for widespread shingle failure, multiple leaks, sagging decking, excessive granule loss, and code-related deficiencies. If 25–30 % or more of the roof is compromised or the roofing system is past its expected service life, a full replacement is usually the most cost-effective and reliable solution.
What roofing materials do you offer for replacements, and which work best in the Cosby climate?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, metal panels, standing-seam steel, and premium synthetic shake or slate. For Cosby’s mix of humid summers, occasional high winds, and winter freeze-thaw cycles, architectural shingles with high wind ratings (130 mph+) remain the most popular, while metal roofing is excellent for maximum longevity (40–70 years) and energy efficiency. Our consultants will compare options, budgets, and aesthetic goals to help you choose the optimal system.
Are your crews truly certified, and why does that matter for my roof replacement?
Yes. Every installer on our team maintains manufacturer training badges from GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning as well as OSHA 10 safety cards. Certification ensures your roof is installed to strict factory specifications, preserves the eligibility of enhanced warranties, and provides you a third-party avenue for quality assurance. It also means our work meets or exceeds Cosby and Cocke County building codes.
How long will a typical roof replacement take and what should I expect during the process?
Most single-family homes in Cosby are completed in one to two working days. Day 1 covers tear-off, deck inspection, repairs, and installation of underlayment and starter courses. Day 2 finishes shingle or panel installation, flashing, ventilation upgrades, and a thorough magnetic nail sweep. We arrive by 7 a.m., protect landscaping with tarps, keep dumpsters off driveways when possible, and provide a daily cleanup so your property remains safe and accessible.
Do I need permits for a roof replacement in Cosby, and who handles them?
Yes. Cocke County requires a building permit for any structural roofing work, and some HOA communities in Cosby also request architectural approval. Our office secures all necessary permits, schedules inspections, and supplies you with copies for your records. Permit fees are included in your written proposal—no surprise charges.
What kind of warranties and financing options do you provide?
Every roof replacement comes with a 5-year workmanship warranty backed by our company plus a 25- to 50-year manufacturer material warranty, depending on the product line chosen. Because we are certified at the "preferred contractor" level, we can register enhanced non-prorated warranties at no additional cost. For budgeting, we partner with national lenders to offer 0 % APR plans up to 18 months or low-interest terms up to 144 months with quick, paperless approval—helping you replace your roof now and pay over time.
