FAQs
What is a full flashing rebuild and why is it important for roofs in Luttrell?
A full flashing rebuild is the complete removal and replacement of all flashing materials—metal or membrane strips that seal joints, penetrations, and roof edges—around chimneys, valleys, skylights, sidewalls, and eaves. Because Luttrell’s humid climate and frequent thunderstorms expose roofs to sudden wind-driven rain, compromised flashing is one of the leading causes of interior leaks. Rebuilding the flashing restores a watertight seal, prevents hidden wood rot, and extends the overall life of your roof far longer than patching isolated leaks.
How do I know if my roof needs a flashing rebuild instead of a simple repair?
Signs include recurring leaks in the same area, rusted or lifted metal flashing, missing sealant, water stains on interior ceilings near walls or chimneys, shingle granule loss concentrated along valleys, and daylight visible in the attic around roof penetrations. If more than 20–25 % of the flashing is damaged or the underlying decking shows moisture deterioration, we recommend a full rebuild. We provide free drone and attic inspections anywhere in Luttrell so you can see high-resolution photos before deciding.
What does your full flashing rebuild process involve?
1. Detailed inspection and moisture-meter readings. 2. Careful removal of shingles or metal panels around all flashing zones. 3. Extraction of old flashing, nails, and deteriorated underlayment. 4. Repair or replacement of any compromised decking or fascia. 5. Installation of new self-adhering ice-and-water membrane in valleys and around penetrations. 6. Custom-bent 26-gauge galvanized or copper flashing secured with corrosion-resistant fasteners. 7. Re-shingling or panel reinstallation with manufacturer-matched materials. 8. Final water test and site clean-up with magnetic sweep. The entire process follows Tennessee Building Code and manufacturer guidelines so your roof warranty stays intact.
How long will the project take and will I need to leave my home?
A typical single-family residence in Luttrell takes 1–2 days for a complete flashing rebuild, weather permitting. We work section by section, so your home remains protected overnight. You can stay in your house during the project—noise is noticeable during daylight hours but there is no need to disconnect utilities or relocate furniture.
What does a flashing rebuild cost in Luttrell and can you help with insurance claims?
Costs range from $1,200 for a small, simple roof to $4,000+ for large or complex roofs with multiple chimneys and valleys. Prices vary with metal type (galvanized steel, aluminum, or copper) and roof pitch. If the damage is storm-related, many homeowners’ policies will cover some or all of the expense. We provide written estimates, photo documentation, and will meet your adjuster on-site to streamline the claims process at no additional charge.
Do you offer a warranty or ongoing maintenance after the rebuild?
Yes. Our full flashing rebuilds carry a 10-year workmanship warranty plus the manufacturer’s material warranty (25–50 years depending on metal type). We also include one complimentary roof check-up in year two and provide low-cost annual maintenance plans that cover gutter cleaning, sealant touch-ups, and storm-damage inspections so you stay ahead of future issues.
