When East Tennessee’s sun scorches in July and icy rains lash in January, homeowners in Knoxville trust HEP’s precision craftsmanship to keep every shingle tight and every plank looking flawless.

That same mastery extends to our siding solutions, custom-fit to your home’s architecture and the region’s shifting climate.

FAQs
What roofing materials do you offer and which option performs best in Knoxville’s climate?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, standing-seam metal, cedar shake, and synthetic slate. Knoxville experiences hot, humid summers, occasional hail, and wide temperature swings, so architectural shingles and metal are the most popular. Architectural shingles provide an excellent balance of cost, wind resistance up to 130 mph, and Class A fire ratings, while standing-seam metal reflects solar heat, sheds heavy rain quickly, and can last 50+ years with minimal maintenance. Our project consultants review your budget, aesthetic goals, and the home’s roof pitch to recommend the ideal material.
How does your precision craftsmanship process produce longer-lasting roofs and siding?
Our crews follow a 25-point installation checklist that exceeds manufacturer specifications. For roofing, this includes laser-measured layouts, 6-nail shingle fastening, synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water shield in all valleys, and hand-sealed flashings around penetrations. For siding, we use fiber-cement or premium vinyl secured with stainless fasteners, rainscreen spacers, and color-matched trim. Supervisors photograph each phase, and all work is inspected by a Haag-certified roof inspector before we declare the project complete. This attention to detail eliminates premature failures and preserves manufacturer warranties.
Are you licensed, insured, and do you handle permits for projects in Knoxville?
Yes. We hold a Tennessee Home Improvement & Roofing license (#KX-98765) and maintain $2 million in general liability coverage plus full workers’ compensation. Our office applies for all required City of Knoxville building permits and schedules the final inspection with the codes department. You receive digital copies of licenses, insurance certificates, and permit receipts before work begins for complete peace of mind.
What warranties or guarantees do you provide on roofing and siding installations?
Every roof or siding system includes two layers of protection: (1) a manufacturer’s material warranty—up to 50 years non-prorated on shingles and a lifetime limited warranty on metal panels or James Hardie siding; and (2) our own 10-year workmanship warranty that covers labor, flashing, fasteners, and any leak-related repairs. Registering your warranty is handled in-house, and you receive a transferable certificate should you sell your home.
How long will a typical roof or siding replacement take, and what should I expect during the installation?
Most single-family roofs are completed in 1–2 days, while full siding replacements take 3–5 days depending on square footage and trim details. We deliver materials the evening before, protect landscaping with tarps and plywood, and use a catch-all netting system to control debris. Daily clean-ups keep your property usable, and a magnetic sweep at project completion ensures no stray nails are left behind. A final walkthrough with the site supervisor lets you verify workmanship and ask questions before we finalize payment.
Do you offer financing or help with insurance claims for storm damage repairs?
Absolutely. We partner with financing providers offering 0% interest plans for 12 months or low-fixed-rate terms up to 144 months. For storm-related damage, our team includes former insurance adjusters who meet your carrier’s field rep, document damage with drone imagery, and assist you in completing paperwork. We can often start repairs as soon as the claim is approved, charging only your deductible upfront.
