FAQs
How do I know if my roof needs a full replacement after a storm in La Follette?
Look for missing or curled shingles, granule loss that exposes the asphalt mat, dents or punctures from hail, water stains on ceilings, and daylight showing through the decking in your attic. Because La Follette often experiences high winds and severe thunderstorms, even minor-looking damage can compromise the roof’s waterproof barrier. A professional inspection with photos, moisture-meter readings, and a written report is the safest way to determine whether repairs or a full replacement are required.
What is the process for a storm-damage roof inspection and replacement?
1) Initial visit: We schedule a free, no-obligation inspection within 24 hours of your call. 2) Documentation: Our technician photographs damage, notes code requirements specific to Campbell County, and prepares a report for you and your insurer. 3) Insurance claim support: We meet with your adjuster on-site to ensure all storm-related damage is included. 4) Material selection and contract: You choose shingle style, color, and underlayment upgrades; we provide a detailed scope of work and timeline. 5) Tear-off and decking evaluation: Old roofing is removed down to the decking. Any rotten wood is replaced per Tennessee building code. 6) Installation: Ice-and-water shield, synthetic underlayment, flashing, and new shingles or metal panels are installed, followed by ridge ventilation. 7) Cleanup and final inspection: We magnet-sweep for nails, haul away debris, and perform a walkthrough with you to guarantee satisfaction. 8) Warranty: You receive both the manufacturer’s material warranty and our own labor warranty.
Will my homeowners insurance cover the cost of a full roof replacement due to storm damage?
Most policies written for La Follette homeowners include wind and hail coverage under the dwelling portion. If the storm caused functional or cosmetic damage that affects the roof’s life expectancy, your insurer generally covers the cost minus your deductible. We assist by providing documentation, attending the adjuster meeting, and supplementing for code upgrades such as drip edge, ice-and-water shield, and ridge vent—items Tennessee law now requires on new installations. Coverage can be denied for pre-existing wear, so prompt inspection after each storm is crucial.
How long does a full roof replacement take, and will I need to leave my home?
An average 2,000-square-foot shingle roof in La Follette takes one to two working days to replace, weather permitting. Larger or complex roofs, metal systems, or structural repairs may extend the project to three to four days. You can usually stay in your home; however, expect construction noise from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and keep children and pets indoors or away from the work area. We protect landscaping, cover attic items with plastic sheeting, and coordinate deliveries to minimize disruption.
What roofing materials do you recommend for storm resilience in the La Follette climate?
Impact-rated architectural asphalt shingles (Class 4) offer enhanced granule adhesion and laminated layers that resist hailstones and 130 mph wind gusts common in East Tennessee. For even greater durability, standing-seam metal (24-gauge) with concealed fasteners performs exceptionally against wind uplift and sheds heavy rain quickly. We pair either system with ice-and-water shield in valleys and around penetrations plus high-flow ridge vents to manage humidity from La Follette’s humid subtropical climate.
