FAQs
What makes premium architectural shingles different from standard 3-tab shingles?
Architectural (also called dimensional or laminate) shingles are manufactured in multiple layers that are bonded together, creating a thicker, sculpted appearance that mimics slate or wood shake. This added mass makes them 50–60 % heavier than 3-tab shingles, enabling higher wind ratings (up to 130 mph), better impact resistance, and longer warranties. They also contain upgraded granules that resist fading and algae staining—an important feature in the humid East Tennessee climate. A wider color palette and shadow lines give your roof depth and curb appeal that flat 3-tab products simply can’t match.
How long can I expect a new architectural shingle roof to last in Maynardville’s climate?
With proper attic ventilation and routine maintenance, premium architectural shingles commonly last 30–40 years in Maynardville. The product itself carries a “lifetime” limited warranty, but real-world service life is influenced by summer heat, occasional hail, and high winds that roll through the Clinch Valley. Annual inspections, prompt repair of storm damage, and keeping debris off the roof and out of gutters will help you reach (and often exceed) the upper end of that lifespan.
Will architectural shingles increase my home’s resale value or curb appeal?
Yes. Realtors in Union County report that a recently installed architectural shingle roof can raise perceived home value by 6–8 %. The thicker profile, dimensional shadowing, and richer color blends add visual depth that photographs well in listings and makes a strong first impression during showings. Buyers also appreciate the longer warranty and energy savings that come from modern reflective granules and improved attic ventilation often installed during a roof replacement.
What is the typical cost of an architectural shingle roof replacement in Maynardville?
For most single-family homes in Maynardville, expect a ballpark investment of $4.25–$6.50 per square foot of roof area ($425–$650 per “square,” or 100 sq ft). This price includes tear-off of the old roofing, synthetic underlayment, new flashing, and installation by a licensed, insured crew. Factors that can move the price up or down include steep roof pitch, multiple valleys, rotten decking that must be replaced, and optional upgrades such as copper accents or high-flow ridge vent systems. We provide a detailed, written quote after an on-site inspection so there are no surprises.
How long does the roof replacement process take and will I need to leave my home?
Most architectural shingle replacements on a 2,000 sq ft home are completed in just 1–2 working days. Larger or more complex roofs can take 3 days. We typically begin by 7:30 a.m., remove the old shingles the first morning, inspect the deck, and dry-in before lunch. Shingle installation and detail work follow immediately. You can remain in your home during the job; expect some vibration and noise, but all entrances will remain accessible. Our crew uses magnet rollers and tarps to protect landscaping and ensure thorough cleanup before final inspection.
What kind of warranty and maintenance is required for premium architectural shingles?
You’ll receive a manufacturer’s lifetime limited warranty—often 50 years non-prorated when installed by a certified contractor—covering material defects. We also back our workmanship with a 10-year labor warranty. To keep the warranty valid and the roof performing its best, we recommend: (1) a professional inspection every spring or after any significant storm, (2) keeping gutters clear so water can drain freely, (3) trimming overhanging tree limbs that can rub granules away, and (4) avoiding harsh chemical or high-pressure washing. Following these simple steps will maximize the roof’s life and ensure your warranty protection remains intact.
